Now in my mid-seventies, the exercises given to me by MVC have rejuvenated my voice beyond expectation resulting in an appreciably increased accomplishment in my performances. The exercises have improved my vocal agility, enhanced my projection and my voice continues to extend its range at both extremes.
Undergoing menopause very suddenly, I did not understand why my voice no longer did what it had always done until contacting the MVC. I was encouraged to try a number of different exercises which have been a game changer for me. The programme has had an amazing effect increasing my range, breath control and flexibility as well as improving my mental health by helping to give me back ownership of my voice.
I can't thank you enough for the work you have done on my menopausal voice Paul. You have transformed my voice. I have been doing some singing in church and everyone had said how beautiful my voice is.
After several months of voice exercises recommended by Paul, I have just completed a full rehearsal and performance of Handel's Messiah. That's six hours singing in one day! I reached the top notes without issue and could still sing at full volume in the final chorus. I had gone from having a reasonable voice to complete dereliction following a thyroid operation, diagnosis of sleep apnoea and the dreaded menopause. What a joy to return to choral singing. Thanks for your encouragement and expertise.
The initial consultation typically is in five parts:
a discussion about your experiences of voice change;
an evaluation of your current vocal health;
an explanation of what is happening in your larynx;
a demonstration and explanation of the bespoke strategies that your voice will need to improve vocal function;
and finally, ensuring that you can execute each exercise to the standard required to yield results.
You are advised to attend two follow up sessions three to four weeks apart to evaluate your progress and identify any further intervention that may be required.
Interactive online group sessions providing support through community vocalising and sharing of experiences to promote well-being and confidence.
We provide voice assessments, explanations and bespoke care pathways designed to help manage and support your voice during and after menopause.
No two women or voices are the same and progress can manifest itself in different ways and over varying timescales. That is why it is so important to have at least one follow up session after the initial consultation. Clients typically begin to see progress after a few weeks of following their personalised care pathway.
