TEACH THE SINGER

In the ‘Teach the Singer’ workshops, we offer a total programme through which singers enter the working field better prepared. Our courses work on vocal technique, physical and mental awareness.

Zen, Singing and Acting 2025
The summercourse Zen, Singing, and Acting was established in 2009 and takes place annually at the Préau estate in France. During this six-day summer course, emphasis is placed not only on vocal singing technique but also on physical and mental awareness. Lessons in acting and drama are provided, along with meditation sessions. The underlying idea is that when a singer feels physically and mentally strong, it is reflected on stage.
The core team of the course consists of Margreet Honig (individual singing lessons), Marc Brookhuis (Zen), Elsina Jansen (acting/drama), and pianist Jorian van Nee.
The course accommodates a maximum of ten international singers every year.

June 28 - July 5 2025 in L’Huy Préau, France (www.preau.nl)

TEACH THE TEACHER

In the "Teach the Teacher" workshops, the focus is on collaboration. In these workshops, singing teachers gather with students to advise and question each other in intensive discussions. The goal of the training is to develop and strengthen each other through this interaction. The workshops are led by Margreet Honig, who is eager to share her ideals with the next generation of singing teachers.
Some of the teachers also attend the Margreet Honig Summer Academy and Zen, Singing and Acting courses. A great way to stay up to date on the developments of the MHF is to subscribe to our newsletter.

MHF Online Studio

- Watch Maarten Koningsberger Teach Teachers Online

The MHF Online Studio offers a unique opportunity to observe Maarten Koningsberger as he imparts his wisdom to aspiring vocal teachers. Set in an intimate living room environment, utilizing the YouTube platform, a single camera perspective, and one microphone, participants gain insight into the dynamics of how a small group delves into the art of teaching.

The Online Studio provides you with the chance to remotely peer into a teaching practice, offering a glimpse into the intricacies of the craft.

Please note that the sessions will be conducted in English.

Registration is possible throughout the entire 2025–2026 season. This is because all sessions can be rewatched on YouTube (exclusively for participants of the MHF Online Studio).

Testimonial:

Thanks a lot for the great online-workshop “MHF Studio Online – teach the teachers” It is very inspiring and helpful to remember the exercises and refresh the tools. And we can breath and renew the spirit and the message of Margreets way to teach. I am really happy and grateful about this.

All my Love
