This brand new 20-lesson course is presented by veteran worship leader and multi-instrumentalist Tim Martin with assistance from the Musicademy team.

We cover an essential range of practical skills every worship leader needs, but probably hasn’t been taught!

In the first three lessons we unpack working with songs. Choosing songs, pitching songs in singable keys, teaching new songs and building a balanced and manageable song repertoire for your church. We explore practical skills involved in leading songs well, plus the skills to train your band to play better.

There is excellent content on team recruiting and team building and we include some invaluable music theory to help you transpose songs into playable keys and even alter the chords to reflect different moods and responses.

We’ve not found a worship leader who wouldn’t want to write songs, but many don’t know how, so we share ways to you get started.

Most worship leaders also sing so we’ve included some vocal warm-ups, exercises for developing your vocal range and even tips on how to care for your voice.

As worship is not just about singing we’ve included ideas on how to engage your congregation in non-musical expressions of worship.

We also include some invaluable top worship leading tips born out of the collective years of experience of the Musicademy team.

The course can be worked through as an individual or together as worship team and at the end of each lesson there’s a practical exercise practical exercise to help build the learning into your team’s everyday skill set.
