TEACH THE SINGER<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In our \"Teach the Singer\" workshops, we offer a comprehensive program that better prepares singers for the professional field. Our courses focus on vocal technique, physical and mental awareness.<\/p>\n

Margreet Honig Summer Academy – France <\/strong><\/span>(a.k.a. Zen, Singing and Acting)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Zen, Singing and Acting (ZZS) summer course was founded in 2009 and takes place annually at the Pr\u00e9au estate in France. During this six-day summer course, in addition to vocal technique, attention is also paid to physical and mental awareness. For example, acting and drama lessons are offered, as well as meditation sessions. The underlying idea is that when a singer feels physically and mentally strong, this will be reflected on stage. The 2026 team consists of Margreet Honig & Selma Harkink (individual singing lessons), Marc Brookhuis (Zen), Elsina Jansen (acting\/drama), and pianist Jorian van Nee.
\nThe course accommodates a maximum of ten international singers every year.<\/p>\n

TEACH THE TEACHER<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

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.
\nSome 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.<\/p>\n

MHF Studio<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The MHF Studio was developed as part of Teach the Teacher. Maarten Koningsberger coaches beginning singing teachers in their teaching skills. This two-year program consists of nine sessions per year.<\/p>\n

The following singing teachers have now successfully completed this training (under Margreet Honig): Kirila Kraal, Erik Slik, Hetty Gehring, Bert van de Wetering, David van Laar, Frank Hermans, Sterre Kooi, Nicole Fiselier, Silvia Hauer, Sophie Sauter, Eline Welle, Henriette Schenk, Kimon Barakos, Stephanie Gericke, Catrin Wyn-Davies, Pascal Zurek and Virpi Raisanen.<\/p>\n

MHF Online Studio<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

- Watch Maarten Koningsberger Teach Teachers Online<\/p>\n

The MHF Online Studio offers a unique opportunity to observe Maarten Koningsberger as he \nimparts his wisdom to aspiring vocal teachers. Set in an intimate living room environment, \nutilizing the YouTube platform, a single camera perspective, and one microphone, \nparticipants gain insight into the dynamics of how a small group delves into the art of \nteaching.<\/p>\n

The Online Studio provides you with the chance to remotely peer into a teaching practice, \noffering a glimpse into the intricacies of the craft.<\/p>\n

Please note that the sessions will be conducted in English.<\/p>\n

Registration is possible throughout the entire 2025\u20132026 season. This is because all sessions can be rewatched on YouTube (exclusively for participants of the MHF Online Studio).<\/p>\n
