After 5-7 months of not practicing, my voice is gravel-y, cracks, harsh so after hearing the 50th celebration allows me to be the clown and relax and keep practicing without judging myself. I love to sing. It’s healing. Once you commented to me to move forward from my past. PTSD sent me down into quicksand darkness for that 5-7 months that I didn’t practice. I did journaling and watched everything from brain plasticity to motivational creative artist speakers.
I am healing and able to return to your generous, genius talent. Your vocal lessons are not just for singers. They help us heal ourselves through developing new neural pathways form in our brains through creativity. You also makes me feel safe. Just seeing your kind and smiling expressions and hearing your voice. I’m 68 pushing 69 and I haven’t felt safe all my life. So if you are reading this, Mark, I feel like I can live joy and true happiness for the rest of my life because of you and your lessons. You helped me save my life. I no longer contemplate suicide. I won’t be singing professionally and say in front of thousands that you got me there. I can say in front of thousands on utube that you helped save my me on the stage of life. My gratitude to you is enormous!

damn after trying another vocal warm up on another channel "V V Technique" I should of just stayed with what works. The other channel strained my voice with their exercises. Your are the best vocal on YouTube.

[reddgrapes]

And they all sang " Can you see the possibilities Oh Yeah" :-)

Thank you Mark, you know I sometimes switch over to other coaches who show up on the right side of my page but I always end up getting frustrated and get right back to "my" teacher, who never screws around with too much BS and unnecessary talking-I don't have time, I have a gig to get to...

[A_Kadella]

Ich hatte monatelang Halsschmerzen und habe dann Pause gemacht vom Singen. Jetzt brauche ich einfache Übungen um erneut zu beginnen und fühle mich hiermit sehr wohl. Danke vielmals !!

Looked at some of your other vids this afternoon and did 2 or 3 exercises as well, after doing my usual upper body warm up/work out. I learned how to do lip trills before I discovered you Mark, but you are different, you explain exactly what they do and how and why they are needed in order to sing well, or at least better. Your approach is obviously fairly serious, but you make the lessons fun too. I will never be able to thank you enough.

[SKShlomo]

this made me smile and vocalise and feel happy. thank you :)

[heavymetalforever]

I have recently had almost no time to sing or vocalize... now it's been about a week or more and I have some freetime and your video popped up on my recommended list. Decided to do this rehearsal and I'm feeling as powerful singing as I could be! \m/ Thanks, man!

[francescafrancesca]

You are amazing. What a teacher. Just stumbled upon your videos. The real deal...unreal..that we are able to vocalize with your instruction. We are all so lucky. Thank you

[cgdover]

THANK YOU MARK!! I LOVE YOUR VIDEO.  YOU ARE NOW MY VOCAL GURU!

[lauraevelynpaxton]

I love all I can behold of you. WONDERFUL TEACHER.

[ercktwh]

This is so much more than a vocal lesson... thank you, Mark!

[bobw]

Hey Mark! Out of all your lessons this one is my fav! Simple warm up vocalizing with great info! The voice is improving slowly. Tx again for all you do!

[trikonasana]

I have a paralysed left vocal cord and I use your excercises to try to re-enervate it!
So far so good. Thanks!

[michaelschenko]

I am finding what you teach so good and so easy to get my head round without all the major explanations of things by doing it so I thank you very much and I’ll be watching and I feel I am improving when I pay back the recordings so thank you so much
