A Voice Apart

We would identify the cause of your voice issues and then we will find the solution for the appropriate alternative/holistic treatment which, in the majority of cases, will lead to a desirable cure!! In February of 1984, The Royans School for the Musical Performing Arts was founded. Just over 7 years onward, it turned into The Royans Professional Vocal School , as we started to specialize in voice and vocals only. At that time, a lot of singers (and speakers, for that matter) successfully completed their programs with us and went on their merry way to their singing performances, public speaking careers, as well as to working in the media channels like radio and television. Then, evidently, life became much more stressful due to (at that time) an enormous demand on human skills. Like figure skaters and gymnasts, the singers and speakers started experiencing a lot of trauma caused by various injuries in their field. By the end of the 80’s, my own stress took over my lif

What do we mean by that? Let’s find out! If I could say so myself, The Vocal Science™ method and technique is truly “engineered” to amaze!   For many years, we have been attending to all kinds of people with all kinds of voice/vocal disorders (speakers and singers).  Our voice repair clients, nevertheless, are experiencing today (so to speak) the 22nd century in voice/vocal innovation. Our non-surgical voice repair methods are very unique and totally holistic. We are not just working on a person’s voice (we are actually working on their mind, body and soul). Then we, nonetheless, treat the voice as a significant part of the client's anatomy, while also taking into consideration their psychological makeup. Once we succeed with all of the above described, our now former clients have often been asked: “Is that…magic happened to you?”  They apparently answered: "No… it is Vocal Science...!!" Vocal Science….   For the love… of voice! “I will l

Who is the Biggest Loser you may wonder…? LET’S FIND OUT! "Evidently, when it is concerning the human anatomy, there are no “cutting corners”.   A few years ago, sometime in November, my friend and I went to Niagara Falls to watch a Christmas skating show known as “Christmas On Ice”. We’ve been there all previous years and really loved that show, but I have to say, that last year’s show was the worst out of all. There were only about 10% of the original cast participants in the show (skating, dancing and singing). We were wondering then why there were young and inexperienced skaters desperately trying to resemble something remotely reminiscent of the original show? In all three categories, the performers were very amateur and clearly inexperienced. They were hardly rehearsed, the pace of the show was very fast, very loud and very chaotic. I have to say that it was also very poorly directed. In the most recent show that we watched, my friend and I were very pleased to see (for the

What do we mean by that? Firstly, any person should possess a healthy voice which is also consistent with the persons' height, weight and the their inner ‘make-up’ in general. Sometimes, and luckily not too often, you can see a quite petite woman, but yet hear her heavy and 'bassy' voice. A good example would be two well-known actresses (one of whom is also a singer). The singer/actress is Miley Cyrus and the other actress is Julia Stiles - pretty girls that are speaking with much heavier voices then their physiques would ever suggest.  We, in fact, at The Royans Professional Vocal School , would be able to get rid of the heaviness and thickness of their quite-low voices. If they (or them alike) embraced the Vocal Science technique, their voices would be lifted off of their (somewhat) heavy and thick vocal cords, which were given to them at birth. The thicker the vocal cords are, the lower voice will prevail. And, on the contrary, if the person poss

The answer is: Dealing with something serious like that cannot be self-served. Nevertheless, one of the commercials on weight loss for men says: “If you could do it alone, you would’ve done it already.” -  Harvey Brooker Indeed, but some people still think that if they knew the diagnosis and somewhat (in theory) how it could be treated, they would have attempted fixing their vocal issues by themselves… The fact is that any voice problem, by definition, is already an internal problem; and thus, has to be treated very seriously and by a  qualified voice specialist . The work with a  damaged voice  is usually very detailed and very intense, which applies to both sides: The injured client and the voice repair specialist. Without the guidance of a highly qualified professional, it is virtually impossible for the sufferer to lift their voice and re-channel it into the different set of muscles altogether; and on top of that, put those muscles (facial and abdominals) to

Vocal Science™ Technique advocates not only healthcare for the voice, but also for the human being as a whole. In order to structure, place and project the voice to its aimed destination, the alignment between the subconscious and conscious mind has to take place.  In a nutshell, Vocal Science™ method is about the integration and synergy between mental, physical, physiological, emotional and vocal components. When the subconscious and conscious mind are aligned, the person is more inclined to think and to act upon thinking. Unfortunately, (especially lately and due to enormous stress), people often act irrationally and without thinking first. Some, instead, are thinking forever and never act upon their thoughts. Both statements suggest the complete imbalance of the above aforementioned components. That said, addressing the above aforementioned components could have a positive effect on the person while their voice is being fixed and/or trained. Those people who suffer
