TESTIMONIALS
"It was hard for me to
believe I had a voice worthy of training, and I was very impressed
with the kindness, compassion and respect afforded me during my
lessons. The Italian method is so innovative compared to what I had
been exposed to in the past; in particular the breathwork and the
shaping of the vowels and how important it is to use them
synergestically. I was astounded at how much range - and quality of
sound - I was able to achieve. What a joyful thing it can be to
raise your voice in song."
"Self-belief is a biggie
for me and Vikki really helped me with that. Feeling confidant
enough to sing for others, applying their suggestions, feeling you
have a good voice, and knowing you can ALWAYS get better and
improve, makes you believe more in yourself. I learned about the
science behind singing, how the lungs work when we sing, where the
voice is coming from and everything - the lessons just gave me a
deeper understanding of how it all works. I learned some very
effective tips and tools to support my voice. I can't thank Vikki
enough for all her help."
"When I first met Vikki,
it was awkward to do the exercises. But in no time at all, I felt
comfortable and relaxed. I realized that she really wanted to help,
not judge. Vikki was very supportive in building my self-confidence,
to believe that I could do what was being asked. I discovered that
the more I sing on the breath, the longer my voice will last (it is
difficult to sing for an hour or more when not singing correctly).
And I definitely came away with more self-confidence."
"By using my strengths
with patience and encouragement, Vikki has given me skills to
overcome my apprehension and sing with confidence."
"I wanted to sing, but
was terrified. I think my voice was somehow silenced in the past.
Vikki understands my fear, and I'm finding a way out."
"Thank you so much for
all your guidance, support and encouragement. You give me not only
the courage to sing but to perform! Not only have you been a
wonderful teacher, you have been a mentor and a friend."
"I appreciate the way
you give so much of yourself to give us the chance to succeed."
"Thanks for your support
and perseverance. I wouldn't have done any of this without you: your
help, support -- sometimes prodding!"
"You are a wonderful
teacher."
"I was ready to give up
and believed I was a hopeless cause. Vikki was patient and gentle
and helped me to believe in myself and my ability to sing!" |
