You'll choose a Japanese song you want to sing, and we'll go through it together, line by line. I'll prepare the lyrics for you in both romaji (Roman letters) and hiragana/katakana.

Since I'm from Okinawa, we can even learn an Okinawan song if you're curious.

※This class is all about singing for fun in Japanese. It's not formal vocal training ― just a relaxed space to enjoy the language through music.

※Please send me your song in advance so I can prepare the lyrics for our session!

● Notes

Lessons are adapted to your pace and style.
In most cases, it takes a few lessons to finish one song.
But if you'd like just a one-time session ― for example,
"Please help me with the intro and chorus, I'll practice the rest myself!" ―that's totally fine too.
And if you'd like to sing more and go deeper, you're very welcome to book longer sessions (like 2 hours) as well!
