ANATS is the Australian National Association of Teachers of Singing Limited, a professional association dedicated to serving all those who teach singing in Australia. ANATS was established to encourage the highest standards in the art of both singing and the teaching of singing. Amongst supporting teachers of any style of singing by providing oppertunities for learning, developing and networking, we also:

- promote vocal education and research in all genres and at all levels, both for the enrichment of the general public and for the professional development, advancement and interest of both singers and teachers.

- maintain a register of teachers of singing who qualify for membership under the terms of the association’s constitution.

- present workshops, conferences and other forums for members to meet together regularly on a national, state, territory and/or regional basis, to exchange ideas and information in the many fields of singing, voice science and pedagogy.

- communicate regularly with members through its website, its newsletter, The Voice of ANATS, its annual peer reviewed journal Australian Voice, and other chapter-based newsletters.

- maintain national and international affiliations with equivalent and related organisations.

- provide bursaries and other benefits to encourage teachers of singing to achieve excellence in their profession.
