About Anna Hakala
Anna Hakala is a singer, vocal educator, Pilates instructor, and co-developer of the SingLates method, an innovative approach that integrates Pilates-based movement with vocal training. Anna is a graduate of the University of the Arts Helsinki.
With extensive experience teaching private students, vocal ensembles, and choirs, as well as performing in concerts and stage productions, Anna combines practical performance expertise with a holistic approach to vocal health. To support singers’ physical and vocal well-being, she trained as a Pilates Health instructor — a foundation that informed the development of SingLates alongside her colleague Jenny Liebkind.
Anna’s pedagogical philosophy emphasizes the holistic, embodied nature of singing. She guides students to cultivate their own voices with freedom, richness, and expressive power, while fostering joy and engagement in the process.
