Ruth Wood I moved to Rubery 10 years ago and have taught in Redditch, Birmingham and Bromsgrove, as well as Rubery. YES YOU CAN! Singing is as natural as breathing!

singing for Health practitioner - improving physical and mental health
AND back on the road as a folk performer promoting my new album 50 Foxie Folk now out on Spotify, YouTube and CD My teaching career spans nearly 30 years, and I am a member of the Association of Teachers of Singing, I have taught in several FE Colleges as well as the Birmingham School of Drama whilst maintaining a successful private studio. I taught in secondary level schools around Worcestershire. My philosophy as a singing teacher - I start from the given that everyone can sing! Tone deafness is a very rare condition - I’ve never met anyone who is actually tone deaf! They’re easy to spot - there is little or no inflection in their speaking voice. For those who’d like to do exams - there are several boards, including Musical Theatre, which is very popular! As I have a holistic approach to singing, I teach interpretation and acting techniques - after all, a singer has words as well as music and those words tell a story. I trained at The Royal Northern College of Music, and then went on the road with a folk group! Thereafter my career included oratorio, light opera, jazz, folk and middle of the road. 3 Cds, television performances include Songs of Praise and Prom appearances. I have appeared in concert houses around the world including Sydney, Vienna and Canada. My radio appearances include regular broadcasts from the Brecon Cathedral Jazz Service.

So here I am, getting ready to go gigging for the first time in over two decades! Really looking forward to touring my folk show and sharing some stories, connecting with new people and seeing old friends.
Bit confusing maybe as I'm back as Foxie Folk, but just me!!!!
So if you want to come along, I'll be posting touring dates.
And if you're a promoter, or you know someone who might like to book me - just let me know!
