I'm 73 years old and have been singing (classical) all my life. People sometimes ask why I still take a weekly voice lesson "at my age". I ask them "Why do you think I'm still sounding good in my 70s?"

I’ve started singing at 59
I’ve worked with my voice as a performer in TV, media and presentation. But this is just beginning my rodeo! Thank you 🙏

I’m 36 and my singing went from tone deaf 0 to an 8 in less than 2 yrs

Ive been singing for 4 1/2 months! On the 21st of May will be a 5 month marker. It was a New Years resolution and I have progressed very far with your videos and when I sing and know I’m doing something wrong I tell my self what I was doing wrong. Dedication is key 🔑

Thank you so much Freya. It's true that when we're younger, we learn faster, but whet we get older we learn more consciously ! I'd love to have my today brain and awareness in my twenties ;)

Great lesson that provides older
persons with the correct attitude for learning how to sing. Intentionality and informed repetition!

Several years ago I decided my best option to learn Hangul (Korean) was to sing with Korean singers since there was no one in my area to help me learn the pronunciation. Since then, I have recorded probably 1000 songs or more and made videos with them to upload on my YouTube channel so that I could compare my improvements as time goes by. I hardly ever sang before because, to be honest, I thought I was tone deaf. An internet test told me I wasn't but I'm still not a good singer, but I have learned to easily sing in the Korean language which is one of the most difficult languages for English speakers. I started using this method when I was 72 in 2016. I still learn and record at least one song a day. It only takes an hour or two now to learn the song and make the video to upload to YouTube.

Yay. I’m 50 and I’m trying not to sound as bad. Never sung around people, but I’m getting better in my guitar playing and some vocals would REALLY. Thanks for the video

Merci ce que vous dîtes est tellement rassurant pour les personnes qui commencent à chanter tardivement merci merci pour cette vidéo

[loryz]

Oh thank you Feya, that's exactly what I longed to hear. I feel motivated again. Started to train my voice at the beginning this year, then I discovered you, felt motivated to go on, but always struggled with my thoughts about my age. Until today! So I stay tuned with another tip from you, always telling myself "This is me"! Maybe I'll find the courage to visit your live training next year? :) Hoffentlich ;)

Thank you Freya, I sing professionally but recently have been working on classical and opera songs. I will start lessons next week and have already been warming up with your videos. I sing with you every day! :-) I am 58 and this was just what I needed today!

[hihihi]

I’m 22 years old and I was worrying if it was too late or not for me to start singing. I guess there’s nothing to worry about then

[tickoman]

i've tried to learn singing from all the yt videos i could find. Also I've learned my voice isn't just "bad" naturally, it's because i have vocal nodes. My situation is that I can't sing high or vocal fry or sing silently. That said, I learned how to do natural vibrato, although it's more difficult in my case, jaw/tongue positions and improved pitch. I can say singing is really really hard and needs dedication. It's actually physically hard (abdominal breathing).

[macltc]

Hi Freya. I learned so much from your Masterclass and the Opera class! I highly recommend your training to people! You are awesome!

[wandanowicki]

This is quite possibly be the most excellent video you have EVER presented. You have always been excellent, but this video really describes the connection. No MATTER WHAT AGE! This video clarifies intentional discovery with one's own anatomy.

[poelimanjo]

This video appealed to me because I'm 23. Apparently I'm still young though 😂

[priayief]

I'm 75 years old. I've always been a terrible singer yet I love it. I got kicked out of a choir when I was a pre-teen because I was so bad.

Later in life, I don't care anymore. I just sing when the mood strikes me - It makes people laugh and it makes me laugh. It gives me joy, but I've gotta admit I'm terrible.

[etiennedelaunois]

There is singing and singing. It depends as well what you want to sing.

[adjanisorento]

Thank you so much in my 40 and I am thinking about it 🌹🙏

[veterinarychemistry]

You are a very smart coach that is what i was looking for
