Post-Course Letters

I can't believe I met you, I can't believe it's true. The pain I once severely had is gone because of you. I prayed for nights, weeks, and days and God sent finally an answer to these cries of mine. A true friend just for me.

You are truly the one and only Diana Yampolsky.

Always and forever your student and a future product of Vocal Science - Aubrie

I don't know where I would be if I did not find you..
In the last couple of days, I finally have people saying that I sound so much better than before. It's so good to hear that...a true blessing!

I will definitely be doing a review with 100 stars if I could!...

Hi Diana,

I just wanted to let you know I survived about 10 different Xmas singing events with the chorus WITH NO IMPACT ON MY VOICE; and for some of those events, we were singing outside in all types of weather - (Christmas parades and Xmas tree lighting etc.)

"I Can Now Sing Without Destroying My Voice!" | Rodney's Vocal Science Testimonial!

We would like to express a big thank you to our former vocal student of 2002, Rodney Ronquillo, for his kind words about his coach and mentor, Diana Yampolsky, on a Facebook Livestream! That was an unexpected but extremely pleasant surprise. 

Rodney came to us in 2002, inspired by few former students of ours who, after acquiring our services, made it quite big in the Philippines, Canada and Germany. Before enrolling in our Super Accelerated Vocal Immersion Course, Rodney was playing piano and arranging music - but had never sung in his life before. 

Upon completion of our course, Rodney returned back to his church and introduced his newly-found singing skill. 

The church-goers who knew Rodney for some time exclaimed: “Rodney, you are such a good singer! Why did you hide it from us all this time?” 

Rodney replied: “Because I never knew how to sing before until I met Diana!”

Now, 17 years later, Rodney is still singing, playing piano and arranging music and, evidentially, not forgetting who opened for him the whole new world of singing; and that is what made him able to express his beautiful mind, heart and soul, along with his beautiful voice.

"My voice has gone through several stages since my sessions with you. It continues to improve and pretty much everyone who has known me long enough has noticed a marked improvement. Several people have told me that my voice now sounds as much as 80% of what it was before my vocal injury.

Yes, the best is yet to come!

See you soon!

Maggie had been traveling (for three weeks period of time) to Korea, China and Japan. Ms Yampolsky inquired about Maggie’s voice condition and below is Maggie’s reply:

“I probably had the best voice during my trip (likely due to mu mind/body/spirit alignment and liberation!)…

For nearly 10 years, Maggie had suffered from the Muscle Tension Dysphonia voice disorder. She tried numerous of treatments and nothing had worked.

After 30 hours of the Vocal Science™ instruction and treatment, Maggie also undergone 30 more hours of maintenance.

So now it looks like she reached her full voice recovery and restoration!

Way to go Maggie (New Arielle)!

Veronika H. Up and Coming Singer from Newmarket, ON 

 32 hours (to date) of vocal instruction under Diana Yampolsky’s guidance.

“I'm Diana Yampolsky's student. With her help, my childhood dream to sing is becoming a reality and I am eternally grateful for her to accepting me as a pupil and teaching and guiding me in a process. With her unique method of Vocal Science I am moving forward, trusting her fully,  and witnessing a transformation, that's happening to me with many "Aha" moments along the way. 

I used to sing, or shall we say, making attempts to do so, with a high pitch,  because my speaking voice was very deep and raspy, and I couldn't sing with that. But both those options were incorrect, and I  am learning that there is a special place where exists a beautiful and powerful voice and pure sound.  But I have to completely let go of old habits and learn new skills.

Can't adopt those old systems to work with new modules. Very excited and looking forward to learning this new language,  that will allow me to share with others my feelings through singing, as I also started to write songs in a process!!!… God Bless you Diana with good health, prosperity and happiness, I  can't express enough my gratitude,” 

"Greetings. When I first met with Diana I was a bit skeptical.  I arrived on a Sunday for a group session and was a bit confused by the end of the day.

On Monday morning we started, and I was still a bit confused.  We did a lot of talking/visiting (very friendly and lots of life experience), and began the voice studies.  I discovered that she used this time to evaluate my voice, my personality, my psyche to use it in her application of the method she uses with her students. By the end of the two sessions on Monday, I was very tired...not vocally at all because my voice was beginning to get better, but mentally and physically from the application and the training.  Again, my voice was starting to improve with use.  It was the strangest thing.  By the end of Tuesday, I was understanding her concepts and on Wednesday I was speaking differently and understanding what she was working to accomplish in me.  I was not able to sign up for the complete training but Diana and Jamie were very generous in giving me all they could in the time that I had registered for.  I look forward to returning as soon as I can to complete my training with her.

When I came home, I noticed I was able to sing higher notes and sing stronger than I had been able to in a long, long time.  I was really in shock.  I went to Toronto with hopes of getting better, but all the while afraid because of what my doctor had said that I would not be able to.  But, in the 4 days that I was there, it started to click.  I'm using the techniques regularly but I had to back off the supplement program due to my blood pressure issues as there was a bit of conflict.

I assure you, I have NO benefit whatsoever in giving you this information.  The benefit to me is that someone else might be able to be helped by her abilities as much as I was helped.  And, I'm not finished.  I fully plan on going back to complete the training with her.  I'm so happy now for the improvements I am seeing that I want to do more.

 

I understand your concerns about understanding her and she does speak fast.  I have a bit of trouble on the phone but in person, I was able to communicate just fine after I got used to her.  I did have to ask her to repeat a few times and clarify but we were able to work through that with no issue.

I consider her a friend now.  After she saw that I was willing to work, to do everything that she told me to do, try and try and try some more, that I was trusting her and doing what she said to do even when it didn't make sense, she warmed up to me more than any voice person I had ever studied with.  She won't waste time if you are not willing to work and I assure you she has your best interests as a singer at the forefront of whatever she is doing.  She is not an easy taskmaster, but she is an EFFECTIVE taskmaster if you will just do what she says.  Trust me, it will not make sense at first and I don't know you so I do not aim to predict how you will grasp her methods, but they do work.  I'm still doing the warmups on a regular basis, and hearing things she had said to me when I position myself to sing.

I encourage you to see her in person but if you don't trust and follow her instructions you will be frustrated.  You have to relax, obey, repeat, repeat, repeat and repeat until you grasp what she is saying.  I did the famous us voice coach method with at least three people.  Nashville, LA and Chicago.  Minimal changes to my voice, as my singing just got worse and very expensive for what I walked away with.  I'm 57 years old and after getting to work with Diana I have been given hope again for the possibility of getting most of my voice back and being able to do what I love:  sing, record and perform.

If you want to call me, email me back and maybe sometime on Wednesday afternoon we can talk.  I know, I'm just a stranger across the country, but if you can see my videos from when I was there with her and know that I really was there, really went through the gruelling training, yet came home with the hope that things are going to get better for me.

Sincerely,

Richard Wallen

Gc Boy"

Hi Diana,

It’s hard to believe that in March it will be two years since I was there in Toronto with you.

As far as my voice is concerned, it is slowly improving. It is definitely better than it was two years ago. In fact, my speaking voice is almost back to normal. And when it comes to singing, I’m slowly improving there too.

Thank you once again for all that you have done for me to help get my voice back.

Gratefully yours,

Frank -

"Happy Canada Day weekend Diana :)

Our performance on Sunday at Shanley United Church was triumphant! I couldn't tell if we produced overtones or not but the sound in that 125 year hall of worship was extraordinary."

Diana - that every time I go to chorus practice or practice at home I am so surprised by the quality of the sound that comes out of my mouth :). The hours of both our efforts have paid off. I still have to work at it but WOW. Just thought you would want to know.

Friday, May 18, 2018 and Monday, May 21, 2018

When I attended the first introductory session and first lesson with Diana, I really didn’t know what to expect.  I had read many reviews and testimonials but I didn’t really know much about her technique besides that it was innovative.  I wasn’t sure what the title “Vocal Science” had to do with anything.

I was first struck with Diana’s straightforward manner.  She tells it like it is.  I appreciate people who are direct.  Constructive criticism is the only way to really learn and improve.  She had a clear grasp of my potential and where I might be able to take my voice.  I’ve never had any aspirations to turn my singing into something on a professional level, but I appreciated that her lessons were measured (I wasn’t going to be taking endless lessons for years) and defined (we were going to go from A to B).

When we began the exercises, I started to get a feel for what her technique was about.  It was quite different from what my limited foray into voice lessons had taught me.  Diana’s method made sense from a scientific and mathematical standpoint; for example, tying the diaphragm and the breath to the facial muscles, bypassing the strain on the vocal chords.  Also, her visualization of circles of sound, to me, seemed set on a mathematical grid, an x-y axis, with the height and breadth defining the sound.  Her technique also made sense to me from a physical level — the athletic posture to enhance breathing, not the traditional stance of vocal instruction emphasizing the extension of the diaphragm.  Being a math teacher and someone always interested and involved in fitness, all of this appealed to me.

While the system seem elegant and straightforward, putting it into practice was something else entirely.  It sounded easy, but was ever so hard to implement.  It’s like superimposing puzzle pieces to allow one small beam of light to pass through.  It’s the alignment of breath, of musculature, of sound, of position.  With Diana’s direction, if you are able to lock all of those things down, you can definitely hear an immediate effect.  It’s like turning on a switch.  Her exercises are an attempt to engrain all of these elements into muscle memory so that it eventually becomes second nature as a singer (or speaker), and something that a speaker/singer can apply to any vocal scenario/song.

"So within the workshop today, there were six of us. And to me personally, it was really interesting to see the method applied to other people as an observer; and to watch how some of the women here were really able to step out of (kind of) hiding their voice, into a place where they are projecting with confidence; even within only a few exercises being conducted by Diana.
That was excellent!"

Dr Eloïse C. Ashworth - Marine Scientist, Science Communicator & Improviser.

First of all, thank you Diana and Jamie for introducing me to Vocal Science. It was an amazing experience. I’ve learnt a lot about myself and how body language matters with regards to communication (singing, talking). I saw how I could improve and it was exciting to learn and feel the difference. And thank you so much for giving me advise. Also, thank you for your patients answering all of my questions. I will come back as soon as I can. Thank you again. It was a pleasure meeting you and seeing first hand the good you do for people, helping people find their voice and “fly to the universe”. It’s amazing!

Angela Horne - Creative Soulutions Coach, Artist, Author, Intuitive/Medium

"Attending the workshop today for Vocal Science was absolutely amazing! A lot was learned from our teacher Diana and from the gals attending to this particular workshop. It was about learning how to actually lift the voice. It was also fascinating to watch the very interesting assistance that everyone was getting while being in the class. It was mind-blowing to learn what can actually be done to assist one’s voice - speaking and singing. So it is very much appreciated with lot’s of gratitude, as I learned for a fact that I actually have a voice; and also that we all have a voice and it can be levelled-up. So thank you Diana and to everyone that has participated today. It has truly been a pleasure.”

"The workshop was a phenomenal experience. I've learned so much and improved my voice drastically in just a few hours. Diana also brought out my singing voice somehow -- I still can't believe I had such a voice within me! Learning from others in the workshop greatly added to the depth of the experience. Diana made sure we all had a chance to "shine" and took care of us (and our voices) throughout the day with her incomparable expertise and generosity. I'll definitely be back to attend another workshop in the future, not only for Diana's unique and miraculous method but also just to be in her presence!"

"This is my 3rd workshop that I am attending and I am extremely grateful to Diana for facilitating this. It’s an amazing journey into the actual science of Vocal Science - the possibilities we all possess. But without the proper teaching or coaching, we will not be able to acquire the proper speaking and singing. So I am extremely grateful again for another opportunity to practice all of that. Thank you Diana."

 Ethelrida Cumpio Zabala Laxa - Singer/Songwriter from Toronto, Canada.!

First of all, I would like to say thank you very much to Diana for making me part of this workshop. I really learn a lot every time I join these workshops. It’s always a learning experience and it’s always a privilege (all women this time, in this particular case). I’ve learned techniques with Diana; and was able to internalize them all together. Her method is one in a million and if you suffer from voice problems, she could diagnose what’s wrong with your voice and teach you how to speak and or sing properly and bring out the best in you. She is amazing. Thank you very much Diana.

Hi Diana and all,

The merriest of Christmas season to all of you. Diana, not a day goes by that I don't think of you and thank my lucky stars that I was led to you. A gigantic hug to you!

Love,

 Bob

Veronica From North York Ontario, Canada - Future Vocal Science Program student & attendee of our December 3rd Holiday Voice/Vocal Interactive Workshop!

I attended a vocal workshop that Diana Yampolsky ran this past weekend. 

Saying "amazing" or "incredible" will be understatement.

When I was learning to play piano at the music school I had to take singing classes as part of curriculum. But I was so bad, that teacher told me to only open my mouth and not make a sound! No one actually took time to explain what singing is all about, mechanics of It, or bother with actual teaching.

Now I understand that no one new Diana's revolutionary method, neither they had her gifts to hear, see and coach a rookie to become a professional singer.

She was able to help me produce such an incredible sound that for a moment I thought I am Cher!...

I also realized that one weekend is not enough and I am planning to take a recommended by Diana course, to be able to sing for myself or friends with confidence and comfort for everyone's ear.

Nevertheless, one thing for sure: Listening songs on a radio became bothersome experience, as now I can hear all the unprofessional sounds, originated either using vocal cords and putting them under excessive pressure or simply using the nose to produce the sound!

 Diana, it is no doubt that most of the singers are lacking your professional and phenomenal coaching!

Thank you again!

- Veronica

"I originally became Diana's student in 1990 and I have never lost touch with her. And now, almost 30 years later, I am again participating in her workshop! All of those workshops (in the past and now) are very enlightening and very Godly in their nature.

Jennifer H from Markham Ontario, Canada - Present and past Non-Surgical Voice Repair client and attendee of numerous healthy Voice/Vocal Interactive Workshops -

I first came to Diana at The Royans Professional Vocal School over 10 years ago. At that time I had a nodule on one of my vocal cords. My singing was effected a lot and it was very frustrating for me, as I loved singing and sung from a very early childhood.

Not only was Diana able to get rid off my nodule non-surgically, but she also taught me how to sing properly and then was also acting as a vocal producer at one of Toronto's prominent studios “Phase One" where she recorded with me 2 quite difficult songs- one by Witney Huston - Run To You" and one by Elena Miles-"Black Velvet".

Then many years later due to a lot of stress at work and also excessive speaking and singing (also singing in a band) I acquired muscle tension dysphonia. Upon recommendation of my doctor, I went to a speech therapist and after spending a lot of money got absolutely nothing out of that.

Last year I returned back to Diana and now both - my speaking and my singing voices are fine and I feel that my voice in general is now very healthy. Diana also helped me with her great knowledge of natural remedies which I am still taking to keep my voice in tact and in its best shape.

Thank you very much, Diana.

I am happy with my voice and my life now,

- Jennifer

Mary Ellen from Brookville Ontario

Dear Diana,

I feel the need to tell my story as there are many people who could benefit from your help, however, they are not sure if they can be helped or are scared to take the first step.

Please believe that if you have voice damage of many sorts that Diana's unique approach will be able to help you.

Almost 40 years ago I damaged my vocal chords and after suffering for a number of months with a very unacceptable voice I had surgery to remove vocal chord nodules. Over those next 40 years my voice – although it was "repaired" – became my Achilles heel. I had innumerable cases of laryngitis and learned to live with a hoarse and rough voice.

After retiring several years ago, I wanted to return to singing in a chorus. However, after several months of singing with the chorus it became clear that I could damage my voice even further if I continued to sing, and that my singing voice had significant issues. So I went searching for help.

I feel extremely blessed that I found Diana and was able to travel to Newmarket from where I live near Ottawa and experience her techniques.  First we used Diana's vocal science technique and her herbal remedies to work on my speaking voice.  Although this as a significant amount of effort on both our parts, the end result has been a great joy for me!  Friends I have known me since I was a teenager have commented on my voice, which has been repaired to the point that I sound 40 years younger!

While working with Diana I also continued to go to choral practice to learn the music, although I was not singing.  The chorus director at one point told me – after he heard my new speaking voice – that he could hear the music in my speaking voice, and would be thrilled to have me back once I was finished.

Diana has been working with me to translate my new speaking voice into a new and improved singing voice. I cannot believe the tone, clarity and power I have in my singing voice now. So thrilled that I am able to debut this new voice with the chorus as we prepare for the rigours of multiple Christmas performances.

My journey to a new voice has been rigorous and not without setbacks. I am beyond ecstatic as to what I have been able to accomplish with Diana's help.

I am forever in your debt. 

- Mary Ellen Stoll

Peter Morrell from Markham, Ontario Canada - Present and past student and attendee of numerous Voice/Vocal Interactive Workshops.

I had such a wonderful day and wonderful time at this latest Vocal Science Workshop. Amazing things happen in these workshops; & today was no different, as we saw a lot of people who had issues with their voice and I have witnessed Diana taking their voices to the next level. We had some participants discover their vocal potential which they had no idea they actually had.

I do encourage everyone to come out and try one of these workshops, as I myself have experienced some really good results and improved my voice speaking as well as singing.

Jeremy - Canadian Military - From Toronto, Ontario Canada.

This workshop has been very eye-opening for me. I never really thought that I could project my voice in a way that would be suitable for people to hear in an audience level. But here, in only a few hours, we were able to really determine what exactly it is that I can do with my voice. Great session today. Definitely appreciate it!

Mary Ellen from Brookville Ontario - Present and past student and attendee of several Voice/Vocal Interactive Workshops.

My voice, my speaking voice, is a testament to the work that Diana puts in each and every person. I started attending Diana's sessions with damaged vocal cords and structure; and she has helped me rise above that in many ways!

Today's workshop was a wonderful way to connect with other people who are on similar journeys’ and to try and help all of us to reach our vocal potential!

Sergei Lekoutovich - Singer/Songwriter from Toronto, Ontario Canada.

"Just finished participating in this workshop with Diana and I feel definitely more in-tune with my voice and feel more confident and generally happier”.

"#1, Diana, you’re the best!

#2, Dr. Morton Cooper is the second best, also because he never addressed the breathing mechanism, which I understand is very important in treating this disorder.

#3, “Botox”…?"

Stay tuned for more…

Richard Doria - Former Singing Student, Singer, Songwritter From: 

For me it was a good day, as I was a former student, so it braught back some of the technique that I had learned 25 years ago, With that said, I'll be coming back!

-

Angela Monkhouse - Singer/Songwriter from Guelph, Ontarion Canada.

"I really enjoyed meeting you both as well as the workshop. I found it fascinating and I am extremely intrigued by your methods."

Really interesting coming from a vocal teacher's perspective. I was able to open my voice in a way I have not been able to before, and felt nothing in my throat. No tention, no pain, no strain...nothing!

I have also referred a local vocalist who is suffering from severe issues stemming from vocal polyps. I hope he contacts you soon. I know you are the only one he should be seeing! He is a fantastic power Metal styled vocalist, who should be touring and recording and can't right now.

As for me, I will be coming back as well!

A great experience. 

-

Naomi H, from Markham, Ontario Canada.

I really enjoyed today. I really feel like this workshop helped take me out of my comfort zone & I really look forward to coming back. One thing that I see in Diana is her gift in teaching. She has a really amazing ear and even though I don't have an extensive background or more training in music, I can really see her ability to cater to the needs of the student and draw out their potnetial.

Amazing. Thank you.  

-

Fen - From Markham, Ontario Canada.

I think that most times, we do not know how to use our voices; and within this workshop, Diana has shown us how we can get the maximum usage out of our voices when it comes to speaking and singing, as apposed to you accidentally damaging it.

So, as a person who like to sing and talk, I find this workshop very helpful and it's a very intimate and frendly enviroment. The workshop staff and participants were all amazing. Highly recommended!
