About Me
THE SINGER
I am an Austrian cover singer/songwriter based in the UK.
Performing as Tina Jay I am open to a wide variety of music. In particular I love singing Golden Oldies from the 50s - 70s.
Covering the hits of artists like Elvis Presley, Little Richard, Frank Sinatra, Connie Francis, Doris Day, Neil Diamond, John Denver, ABBA or The Beatles I invite you to sing, clap, swing and sway with me - or simply lose yourself in those timeless tunes from yesteryear.
My performances are particularly suited to small – medium venues and events such as family celebrations, memorial services, drinks receptions, company celebrations or as a backdrop vocal entertainment for restaurant diners. I can also make someone's day extra-special with a singing telegram.
I sing regularly in residential and retirement settings, enjoying an hour of reminiscing and singalongs with residents, visitors (and frequently staff members!) alike.
In addition I am happy to adapt my set to accommodate special requests and songs from different genres. This includes songs in foreign languages. Besides speaking fluent English and German I am also happy to perform songs in any language provided enough notice is given. I am fully self-contained and can also provide amplification for larger venues.
Providing a memorable "retro" experience and "Swinging 60s" feel with everyone feeling inspired to sing along and having fun is my aim! "Oldies but Goodies" await you and a balanced mix of mellow songs and rock'n roll classics!
Whether you are running a pub, restaurant or managing a hotel or have a special family event planned...or are an activity organiser: Get in touch for an initial conversation or email me on tinajthesinger@gmail.com!

THE COACH
As a singer who loves entertaining I have become only too aware how important confidence and the ability to express yourself fully truly is.
Before embarking on my musical journey I needed to let go of many negative beliefs and fears about "being judged". Hypnosis helped me greatly in understanding where those fears came from and dissolve them. Coaching assisted me with accountability and managing ongoing challenges and situations where I did not feel "enough" and prevented me from living up to my true potential and reaching me goals with ease.
Coaching others under my name Christina Juppe became a natural progression - I am able to help you be the best version of yourself with a mixture of hypnosis (if appropriate) and confidence coaching.
When you were born your were supremely confident and totally happy to be the centre of attention.
You were a powerful communicator and listened to your instincts, your "inner voice" because you knew this voice was your inner compass, your guiding light in this life. In time we are being taught to "compete and compare" and our true potential and capabilities are in danger of being silenced by others "knowing what is good for you".
Is it time to awaken your voice and rediscover your innate confidence? Then I salute you! With my guidance you can effectively re-discover your inner guidance (which always shows you the best path!) and "re-member" the confidence you were borne with, then apply them to your life today. I coach in any area where you may be lacking confidence, with a particular interest in public speaking and communication.
I am also a trained hypnotherapy practitioner having studied with the Marisa Peer School and have since developed my own method to bring about change for my clients as fast as possible. As I mentioned above, hypnosis is an excellent way of finding out what limiting beliefs are holding you back and why. This allows you to "re-program" your thoughts more effectively and thus bring about the results you want faster.
Equally, if you want to branch out into singing, in particular care home singing, I am happy to coach you from your first song ideas to your final marketing plan. I sing in care homes in the UK on a regular basis and can add valuable input to your journey, both as a coach and accountability partner - to make sure you get things done and stay on track!
Having learnt the hard way to incorporate singing and all the incredible joy and satisfaction it brings - not to mention an additional income! - you can benefit from my trial and errors and avoid all of them.
