Vocally Speaking. Are you Well Endowed? And if you are not, can your vocal apparatus be enhanced?

No doubts if you have bigger rather than smaller vocal box with longer rather than shorter vocal cords, it will be that much easier for you to become a vocal performer .   Obviously the bigger car is much stronger and its’ engine is much bigger; so you can extract much more power from it in comparison with the smaller car. As for people, there are taller and more masculine individuals and there are shorter and skinnier ones. As a rule, the taller and more masculine person will have all of his anatomy bigger and stronger. And, conversely, the smaller petite person will not have their anatomy so present. Yes, there are exceptions of the rule, where a smaller person has a vocal anatomy and their voice bigger then they look. So, if the smaller, petite person would like to become a singer , is that possible? The answer is, yes it is. However, there will be much more and much harder work required realizing the future singer’s dream. We would really need to stretch the related

We often hear the saying, “ you are what you eat”. I can also, with absolute certainty, say that you are what you speak and sing. How so, you may ask? With the holistic approach in mind, I should mention that the voice (in my definition) is an expression of who you are and identification of the state of your being. The voice is a very important tool for communication. When you speak with the person, by his/her voice tone, you can determine the person’s mood and even the state of the person’s health; especially if you are at least somewhat familiar with that person. On that note, I could say that when I work with the Voice Repair client and get their voice 'out of their throat' by restructuring it to the facial and abdominal muscles, the person starts sounding completely different, i.e., the voice starts to sound much healthier, more vibrant, more colorful and more reflective of the actual person’s make-up. The sound becomes much clearer

Alternative VS Conventional Approach to Voice Repair and Vocal Problems. Natural and Holistic Treatments and Cure.

After nearly 30 years, my business has gradually turned, almost in its entirety, to the Institute for Non-Surgical Voice Repair, which now, by osmosis, is a huge division of our original ‘The Royans Professional Vocal School’, founded in 1984. It seems like more and more people, (speakers and singers), have been experiencing mild and not-so-mild voice problems. Interestingly enough, almost every one of them, at some point in time, accessed their physicians and ENT specialists. Strangely enough, not one of them was helped to overcome their voice problems. At best, the medical professionals were able to offer some Botox treatments, especially for the Spasmodic Dysphonia sufferers and, or laser/scalpel surgical procedures. The Botox helped some patience momentarily, but then it got warn out and the symptoms of a nasty neurological disease of Spasmodic Dysphonia prevailed again.  The polyps and nodules were yanked from the doomed patients’ throats, but they too, to the patients’

The Lack of Understanding and more so, the lack of Knowledge of the above described can, most likely, facilitate the need for Non-Surgical Voice Repair... For many years now, I have been receiving students - singers, wannabe singers, public speakers, and also, clients,  who required non-surgical voice repair. They have been coming from all over the world (not to mention that sometimes I was going there myself as well) – from almost every state of the US, Europe - primarily from the UK - England, also Scotland, Germany and Belgium, and, of course, Asia – Hong Kong, Shanghai,  Thailand, India, Malaysia and Singapore, to name a few. In previous years, those people were coming to my school because they wanted to become professional singers or public speakers and they did not necessarily require any voice repair or any extensive voice work. They were just lacking the voice/vocal technique which would preserve their voices from damage and, therefore, would allow them to enter i
