Personal Testimonies from my Private Students.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

"I have been going to singing lessons with Jonathan for about 2 months. Before I started, my voice was breathy, and I wasn't able to have good control. He taught me how to breathe correctly so that I could project my voice, and be able to sing high notes, that I have never been able to hit. Even though it has only been a couple of months, I have seen a difference in my voice, and I am pleased to be taking singing lessons with him."

"To the Gifted, Spiritual Vocal Guru!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Through the years, I have studied with several vocal coaches in L.A. My early singing years found me on stage singing in musical theater. This said, I have never experienced the most unique vocal training I have ever had and continue to have as your student. When you perform for an audience, if you can't breathe right, later you feel your throat being sore. Sometimes you can't sing another note after hours of singing with three shows a night.

Well, I got news. When I first met with my new vocal coach, his first question was, "what did I learn from my other vocal coaches?" My answer was to sing in my head voice and my chest voice. Well, of course me with a large ego, I thought I was such a great entertainer only to find that I had no control of my voice, plus I didn't even understand how my instrument operated.

I dropped the ego and opened my mind to new ideas. Now I am now singing jazz songs, singing with power, great diction and I am no longer sore after a lot of singing. When I perform, people actually understand my words. I love what I am learning and I really actually love my new voice voice.

Today I am very happy to say, that my voice has improved, and my range is the best I have ever heard. I even enjoy the sounds that are coming out of voice.

P.S. I never thought that I had to work hard to achieve where I am today. Jonathan you are a gift, I really believe you have Angel Wings that brought me to you to help me to stop hurting my vocal cords. I can sing longer hours with no discomfort and I have more breath control to continue singing my shows.

Thank you Jonathan Jenkins, you are the Guru of Voice!"

"Jonathan, Congratulations to me, I have won the Lottery!

That's how I feel having found you. With your all-encompassing, in-depth knowledge of the voice, how it works, and how to get the best out of it, along with your techniques and teaching style, you are truly unique and the best at what your do!

I was amazed at my very first lesson; what I learned and the difference it made was incredible! I had certainly never held a note so long! As I get closer to mastering your breathing and powerful and clear diction techniques, I am consistently astounded at the improvement in my vocal abilities.

Angels were definitely smiling down on me when they led me to your web site. Delivering on your guarantee to create a more powerful singing voice, Jonathan Jenkins, you are a "GOD SEND!"

With much appreciation"

Eric sent me this email after viewing my FREE Vocal Training Video on Proper Breathing.

"I couldn't resist and signed up for your information under my personal AOL account. I actually tried your breathing exercises. Although I cannot sing myself out of a paper bag it did help with my workout. After being a smoker for the last 10 years I recently quit and was told my doctor to work on breathing exercise to help take away the cravings. I tried it a number of times yesterday and it worked. I am getting back into tennis after a 21 year lay off and need to build my lungs back up. Your exercise are going to help.

I am looking forward to more information from you in the future. Hope you don't mind but I am sending your information out to a lot of people.

Thanks for the help."

"Dear Jonathan,

Your clear, straightforward explanation of how singing happens in my lungs, throat and head made notes and sounds instantly available to me that had been mysterious and unavailable for 35 years. Thank you.

Your coaching style builds naturally on itself, so that each time I make one improvement, you are right there with my next step. Singing can feel vulnerable at first, and in your studio I feel comfortable exploring my breath and my voice. I even hear singers differently now than I did before. Since I am more familiar with how my voice works, I hear more from the same song.

I particularly appreciate your ability to explain things clearly and from more than one angle if necessary. It shows a remarkable ability to think outside the box.

I look forward to seeing you soon.

Warm Wishes"

"Hi there,

I just came across you on Youtube while I was looking for vocal training videos, because I feel that I am lacking certain basics which I tend to forget through my singing, which I have been doing for 3 years now. It has helped.

I research endlessly on vocal techniques, tips and ways on how to utilise your body to become a singing machine. Kind of like how Bruce Lee conditioned his body for martial arts. I do the same, but with singing.

Keep up the good work

PS. Hence why I became a subscriber, I shall continue looking through your sources for guidance."

We will unite the Vocal Community weather they are Singers, Speakers or Actors into one powerful vocal force. We will develop the potential of the every human voice and create independent Vocal Warriors through our educational tools. 

How will we accomplish this? We will provide educational materials that teach Singers, Actors and Public Speakers, beginners and pros, the proper way to sing and speak. These techniques will be in harmony with the basic functions of the human body.

I realize that this may all sound like a bunch of "hype"!  I assure you it is not. Let me tell you more about myself.  

I am Jonathan Morgan Jenkins. After I received a Bachelors Degree in Music Education, I still found myself with a fair vocal sound and a very limited vocal range. This was due to two things:

> My natural instrument was not high quality.

> At college, since my voice was not "impressive", I was always assigned to the "new" vocal coaches. They appeared to dread having to listen to me "squeal" my high notes each week. Their lack of interest and teaching ability produced very little improvement and I barely graduated.

I was definitely not the next American Idol!

This is my College Singing Teacher!
Sing Correctly or Die!

With faith and perseverance, I overcame the "highest mountains" and earned my bachelor degree and music education credentials. Unfortunately, I found myself with a piece of paper that allowed me to professionally teach voice but I had few skills to accomplish this. The last twenty-six years have been spent in the musical trenches, teaching chorus and individual voice.

My successful teaching strategies have been forged from, first developing my own limited voice and, then, adjusting those techniques through years of trial and error to help others achieve success.  I opened VOCAL WARRIOR to promote Internet Vocal Training and to put myself in a position to help many more people achieve vocal excellence than existed in my local community.

Since I realize that an "ebook" is a new product for many of you, let me explain the concept and benefits of this revolutionary web based document.

What is an ebook?

> It is a book that you download to your computer instead of waiting for it to arrive in the mail.

What are the benefits compared to a traditional book?

> You can start reading it in just minutes.

> You can read it on two different computers or compatible electronic devices.

> If you would like a hard copy, you can print it. (this benefit comes in handy for personal study as you can write on and highlight pages)

Read this exciting preview of all the important Vocal Training topics covered in "Singing and Speaking on the Edge of a Grunt".

> Preface

Read about the importance of proper vocal training and why there has been such a lack of proper understanding of how the voice operates. Find the secrets to my success and the poor education I experienced during my formal training that led me to develop my own proven techniques to develop each voice to its operational potential.

> Chapter One / Singing - The Natural Cure

Learn about the latest research that proves singing on a regular basis improves overall health. This research is similar to that which has proven the same results that occur in the body from laughter. The body releases hormones that create good feelings and health. In an age where Natural Cures are popular and constantly in the news, singing is one of the few Natural Cures that is Fun, Social and FREE.

> Chapter Two / Confusing Myths

Most people who have been involved in any type of formal singing vocal training, weather individual or group, have heard terms like, "Sing in you High Voice" (Does this require jumping?) or "Sing in Your Chest Voice" (I thought my voice was in my neck!). In my own personal experience from college, I found these directives to be very confusing and my teachers often lacked the interest or ability to properly explain them. In this chapter, I address most of the common terms and explain their actual meaning. If you don't know what an "instructional directive" means, it is worthless.

> Chapter Three / The Vocal Power Team

This may be my most important chapter. In over 25 years of private voice coaching, I have encountered very few students, some who had sung for many years, that had any real understanding of how the entire body operates to produce proper sound quality. Most people have heard the word "Diaphragm" but I have "never" had one student who really understood exactly what it was and, most important, it's important job in producing controlled sound production. The Vocal Power Team is the Abdominal Muscles (includes the Diaphragm), the Larynx and the Amplifier (throat and head). I will thoroughly explain these body parts and their important functions. This understanding is the knowledge that will completely change your voice into a "controlled powerhouse"!

> Chapter Four / The Human Body - The Instrument in Harmony

This is the chapter where we will take all the knowledge of the Singing and Speaking bodily functions that we learned in chapter three and put them in motion. Each member of the Vocal Power Team will be thoroughly discussed in relation to their specific function. Further, we will finally discover the reason for the odd title of my ebook, "Singing and Speaking on the Edge of a Grunt". We will discover that a bodily function that we use on a daily basis will foundation of how we will "launch" our voice every time we sing or speak. What function might that be? Buy the book and find out!

> Chapter Five / Diction - The Art of Being Understood

Diction is one of those words that many people know and generally have a pretty good idea of what it means. Diction, though, is extremely important to understand and to have the ability to produce correctly. If we learn to operate the Vocal Power Team to its absolute potential and have bad diction, all we have produced is a brand new car with a bad paint job. Diction is the tone and clarity with which we all speak. Some cultures, like the English, appear to have better diction that most cultures. Good diction is just learned there. In America, the land of many cultures and mixed races, our diction is a hodgepodge of multiple dialects which results in some of the worst diction in the world. In this chapter, we will understand diction and how to use it improve our tone and ability to be understood. Weather you are a Singer, Public Speaker or Actor, great Diction is critical to your success!

> Chapter Six / Vibrato

Vibrato is a term, like diction, that most people appear to some level of correct knowledge. The important thing is understanding "how" it is produced. Vibratos vary from large to small to fast and, for the most part, appear to be closely related to the internal structure of the individual human body. The problem arises when vibratos become "forced" or "created". These actions can cause damage to the Larynx. As we will find, a proper Vibrato is usually a result the Vocal Power Team being used in a coordinated manner.

> Chapter Seven / Puberty - The Changing Voice

This is one subject that most people have no knowledge of when it applies to the physical effect on the voice. Since we often lump Puberty and the changing voice together with "sex education", it often is overlooked. So, boys going through puberty continue to walk around grade school with their voices "squeaking" and causing embarrassment. Everyone "knows" that you are going through Puberty. Help! As with most issues, people react "weird" to things they do not understand. I certainly did not understand what happened to my voice! I wish someone had told me. So, I included this chapter to give young and old a working knowledge of this "touchy" subject so we can all help each other through it. Isn't my book worth it just to know this? Of course!

> Chapter Eight / Interpretation - The Key Ingredient

How often have you heard many different people or groups perform the same song and and it sounds completely different? Maybe you shed a tear for one performance and the next one you asked for your money back and it was the same song. This often is the case with major Orchestra Conductors. Most of them are just performing the same songs over and over. Why, then, do we buy the same music conducted by Leonard Bernstein and not by Bruno Walter, or vice versa? The answer is, Interpretation. Since music is one of those great art forms that can be constantly changed, as opposed to a painting, it can also be re-interpreted a thousand times. In this chapter we will learn the absolute importance of proper interpretation for Singers, Speakers and Actors. Further, I will give powerful strategies to produce effective interpretation immediately.

> Chapter Nine / Final Checklist

In this chapter we will review all that we have learned and I will give more strategies to become an effective and powerful Singer, Speaker or Actor.
