Red Tree Performance Academy
About
For performers by Performers
Red Tree came into being rather organically, growing naturally from a community of performers in Hamilton, many of whom sought to better themselves under the tutelage of the more seasoned members of the group.
As demand grew, so too did the scope of the endeavour, and services that were initially offered to friends were gradually made more widely available. In an effort to provide a more formal structure, streamline organizational processes, and improve the overall client experience, the Red Tree Performance Academy was officially established in 2021.
“To be a good performer, you have to be instinctive. It’s like, to walk in the jungle, or to do anything where there’s a certain tightrope wire aspect you need to be instinctive. And you have to be comfortable at it also”
– Bruce Springsteen –
Services
Vocal lessons
Hamilton native Dustin Jodway loves to share his extensive experience in vocal pedagogy and performance practice with beginners and seasoned singers alike. Each voice lesson is centered around not only the technical aspect of singing, but also the elements of performance that take a singer from good to incredible.
In addition to individual lessons, Red Tree Performance Academy offers group lessons geared toward children and adults. We are currently exploring adding choral singing to our repertoire.
Dance classes
Movement is an incredibly important part of performance. With enough space in our new home, we've expanded our repertoire to add dance classes to the Red Tree Performance Academy experience. We currently offer a selection of classes focused on chair dance, floor work, body-positive movement, and dance fitness.
As we expand our dance offerings, we will be adding more multi-week workshop series as well as drop-in classes and stand-alone workshops in our current styles as well as new offerings.
Performance coaching
The key to realizing your full potential in anything is to constantly challenge yourself. It can be difficult to set attainable goals for oneself, and even more difficult to remain motivated in the pursuit of said goals, which is where coaching can help immeasurably. Whether you're an amateur or an experienced performer, if you don't push yourself to improve, you will stagnate.
Our coaches stand ready to assist you with nearly anything performance-related, including but not limited to:
Building confidence/self-esteem
Harnessing nervous energy
Optimization of specific performances
Audition preparation
Public speaking
Stage performance
Recording
Demo reels
Music lessons
Music is important. Countless studies show that learning to play an instrument as a child can help with various elements of cognition. Likewise, adults who learn instruments see a brain boost. More than that, discovering the joy of music is a wonderful thing.
At Red Tree Performance Academy, we provide beginner and advanced students an environment to explore musicality and develop confidence in their musical abilities. Currently, we offer piano lessons, guitar lessons, and lessons in various string instruments, and we will be expanding our offerings to include other instruments
