The only time we stop learning is when we are placed in that 'box' and people start saying goodbye to us.

I would like to learn to sing the Per Bristow way but at the moment am not in a position to do so. I will at some point get these cd's but I dont want to sign up for any more at the same time and wondered whether I could perhaps just sign up for the cds to start with. Could you also tell me how much it would cost in £s as opposed to $s. Thank you and keep up the good work. Brenda UK

I am absolutely astounded at the progress i have made since i have started with Per. In fact i felt a difference immediately. I always felt i was a natural soprano but sure did not sound like it – but when i just relax into into – i just hit the high E note effortlessly and i can ride the waves with a rich full round sound easy – without even practising ! Per has shown am excellent way to use your mind with your voice as you sing! No more straining just pure enjoyment and the audience can feel it ! Thanks Per

Hi there, I went to a fantastic show at my folk club last night, saw some brilliant singing and obvious trained voices, I think that your course is a little too expensive
for me to buy at present, I don't like the sound of the tone of my voice, trouble is I sound like I have an american twang in the sound and I don't like it myself although I do sing I don't know how to improve the tone of my voice, and if I risk buying your products I don't know if it will make a difference, still thinking about the investment. I have been to singing teachers but all they do is excersises and listen to me sing and play my guitar without real comment, this doesn't really help.
I have not heard anything on your site like the before and afters voice improvement, no one has really said how their voices have improved only that they like your cd's, could you put some singing on to prove the difference that you training teaches.
thanks Denise – UK

Hi! Per, I have read your "Blogs" and it amazes me how many are thrilled by their progress, 0ne day maybe I will be able to join them, in the meantime I will carry on as best I can with the choir. I have to smile about the "Professional" singer, we have a man in our choir who was once a pro. singer, and thinks he is god's gift, asked if he could do a solo at a concert, and because he was told no, he has gone into a sulk, and only comes to practice once in a blue moon. Isn't it a shame for them.
Keep up the good work

Hi Per.
I cannot but feel sorry for he person who so rudely said he got nothing he did not know already from your discs. How dull life must be for him if he goes around "knowing" everything!
In my experience of life, every new encounter is an opportunity for learning, and your discs and lessons are definitely distinctly interactive. Each time one plays them one learns something new, something to improve on.
Does this man not vary from day to day in his singing like the rest of us? To learn nothing from your lessons he must be totally self obsessed, and if he is so perfect, why is he not world famous? Perhaps he is, only I suspect not!
Poor saddo! He must live a very dull, blinkered life.
For the rest of us imperfect human beings, even if we do sing a lot, returning to your lessons especially after a break, each time gives us more fun, more confidence and a lift in our singing ability and especially self confidence and spirits!
I for one appreciate the "feel good " factor they impart! Thank you!

Great points Per. It’s good sometimes to point out these things that we often overlook. I am eager to learn but I know I have created ruts for myself that I need to get out of. Thanks for taking a different approach to learning and singing!

Hi Per & all,
I´m doing massage therapy and health coaching. There I often work to make people feel how their body works, how it reacts upon triggers and thoughts, how habits have been installed and so on. Then, out of an atmosphere of security and acceptance, I support to let go, feel differences, to experience something new and to practise that.
Quite the same approach that you give in your voice training. I never looked or focused upon voice earlier, but this method can be applied to all that involves our senses, like eyesight, physical performance, various health issues.
I´m enjoying the "Sing with freedom" course (and the other singing zone material) very much, and feel that my singing is profiting, plus that I´m learning to read melodies and rhythms easier.
Thank you so much!
Kora

I am a voice teacher and singer and I belong to a group of teachers and singers who try to understand how the voice functions physically and then put these principals into practice. I'm amazed at how much physical misinformation is out there even though it is mostly close to a grain of truth. These exercises and concepts do a great deal to train the voice so it can be used effeciently.
