Finally, a vocal instructor that could do more than tell me what I should be doing, but show me!
“I have been a professional singer for over 15 yrs. When I was 17 I started playing in my first band and began touring full time when I was 18 yrs old. After a year of touring I really wanted to improve my vocal range, and power, so that I could sing anything that I wanted to.
I studied voice, took lessons, bought vocal programs, and after years of hard work, still did not achieve the results that I was looking for. Eventually I came to the conclusion that I would never be able to sing a lot of the songs that I loved.
One year ago I discovered KTVA and after hearing Ken sing I bought the program. I began working on the program immediately. What initially impressed me was the simplicity of the method and the fact that Ken could demonstrate what each exercise should sound like. Also, he could then apply the method to singing actual songs, in any style.
Finally, a vocal instructor that could do more than tell me what I should be doing, but show me!
Since starting KTVA I have found new power, range, and tone in my voice that I never thought I could possess. Now I am able to sing songs that I had never thought possible and take my voice past the obstacles I had lived with for so many years.
The beauty of this program is that no matter what your skill level is you will be able to apply the techniques and improve your voice immediately. Ken Tamplin is an inspiration as a teacher and is always there to help his students, armed with the knowledge that he has accumulated throughout his own vocal journey.
Today my voice is the best it has ever been and keeps getting better day by day. As Ken himself says ”The Proof is in the Singing!”

KTVA Vs. Brett Manning’s Singing Success and Seth Riggs’ SLS

“I started practising with Seth Rigg’s Speech Level Singing method about 2 years ago – BUT I just couldn’t get much volume and power from SLS.
I did improve notes over the bridge and my pitch got stable…that was it. Then, I read a lot about Brett Manning’s Singing Success and it seemed like he covers what Seth did, plus things Seth didn’t cover.
I gave SS a go back in May 2012 and practiced almost everyday, then I experienced something horrible.
I lost part of my hearing – I suffered from a condition called Acute Low Tone Sensorineural Hearing Loss.
It was NOT totally because of Singing Success but i think it was due to excessive amount of stress and fatigue i was getting. (EDIT: there is another person here in the KTVA forum who had a very similar hearing experience, so it’s likely to be related to SS program). I recovered from that condition in mid July. Thank God! my doctor said it’s ok to sing as long as I don’t go too crazy! I kept practising with Brett’s CDs again, but i never developed power and volume. I recorded myself and I found that I can control well when i sing quieter but when I tried to sing bit louder I sounded terrible.
Then I discovered Ken. Man, why did it take SO long to find his system??
Just went through Vol.1 videos few times and practising with audio, I FEEL AMAZING!!!
Perfect for me to build foundation after losing my hearing. On the day 1, I could not even see my uvula and felt so frustrated, wanted to give up immediately. But i watched the close-up video so many times until I finally managed to apply to myself. Then, something clicked inside me… definitely Singing Success and Speech Level Singing helped me to get into singing, but I think it was just a warm up. ”one day i will get there” type of a thing. With Ken, it’s wild. It was so hard to forget about what Brett was teaching, but I’m following and almost ”ironed out” issues already. I started practising Ken’s stuff only few days ago, and i already think this is gonna TRANSFORM me – from a kitten to a tiger !”

My volume just went up 3-5 fold… Wowza!
“So… I have done a few other singing programs but most of them were all about just belting it out and trying to get the sounds to connect.
Ken’s is the first I have tried that enphasised being quiet on difficult parts, not loud. So I was going through the volume 2 warm up for dudes (been doing the program about 2 weeks) and something amazing happened. My voice just kinda “clicked on” during the AA warm-up I was singing quietly but trying to sing correctly. Then all of a sudden my throat oppened up wider than it ever has and no more air was going through my voice than when I was singing quitely but the volume ramped WWWAAAYYYY up! And the clarity was amazing!
Wow, just wow!
I didn’t expect it, but it’s awesome and makes me feel I’m going in the right direction.”

It’s a whole new ballgame. Hear it, then sing it.
“It’s amazing when you’re in the middle of a song and you’re adding an ad lib. So you hear a note in your head and you throw it out there and it’s higher and considerably more solid than like EVER!! You weren’t planning on singing that note, it just came out. And right in the middle of the song you’re amazed at what you’re able to produce.
You feel like you can pretty much sing anything you can imagine in your mind. This is what happens to me when I get on a regular discipline of KTVA warm-ups and exercises.
It’s a whole new ballgame. Hear it, then sing it.
There are many thoughts going on in my head when I’m singing. Lately, worrying about whether or not I can hit the note isn’t one of them!”

I’m stoked…
“I’m stoked. This system is awesome! I’m absolutely in love with this technique. I do the dudes and the divas warm-up. Just hit an A5!!
I’m not gonna push it though. This system is unreal. I’ve studied with Berklee grads….this technique blows it away. When I opened up and started getting into my high register I can’t believe how everything clicked. It all came together, I felt the sound going up the back of my head and the resonance was unbelievable.
It takes a little bit of time, but when you get this technique, the voice explodes! To be honest, I was doing the exercises correctly, but it wasn’t until I did the ah, ah, ah, ooh- oh, ah, ah, ah scale that it exploded. Unreal. I’m floored.
I never had any clue my voice had this much potential. The coolest thing was when I did that scale and my voice exploded, I was able to rest in the final release valve and achieve that natural vibrato almost instantly. The feeling and resonance was transcendental! Try this technique and work at it! You won’t regret it, I promise!”

Husband and Wife Learning Together
“My wife and I have been practicing with Ken Tamplin’s “How to Sing Better than Anyone Else.” I don’t believe I sing better than anyone else, but both my wife and I are certainly singing way better than we ever have before, and in a very short period of time. I am a baritone in a comfortable Johnny Cash range, and always struggled with high notes.
Until recently, I haven’t sung for years. But within a few weeks with Ken’s course I can now easily hit High C and sing many of the “girl songs” I would never have attempted in the past. But most important is that I can do this without any strain. My wife used to sing softly, but now has so much power I have to move further away during practice. After having been away from singing since high school choir, she was singing along with Pat Benatar’s “Promises in the Dark,” which has some nasty high notes. We used to joke that they used chipmunks in the studio to get that high. My wife hit every note so well that we stopped the music midstream and just looked at each other with amazement.
BTW, I watched the Beatles live on Ed Sullivan, so I’m very impressed that anyone could get me singing so well at my advanced age.”

“Dear Ken,
I cannot possibly thank you enough for the resources you have put at the hands of myself and everyone around the world. You are truly a master of not only singing, but of teaching singing to others.
I am officially two weeks into Volume 3 of How To Sing Better Than Anyone Else, and your instruction has given me better results than any of the college education or private instruction I have ever had. I won’t take up any more of your time, but I want you to know I’m one more person who is thankful for what you have contributed to the world of singing. You are the greatest.”

Ken Tamplin review from L.A.
Ken Tamplin review from New York

We have over 1,000 KTVA vocalists in our forum, Jay in Ireland posted this for the rest to read:
“I’m on such a high right now that I don’t even know if this will make any sense to you guys….I’ve definitely had a massive “a ha” moment.
About 11am I decided to start my volume 2 workout – half way through it I just didn’t feel I was getting it right probably because of no sleep and my concentration level was low (I’m also just about rid of a head cold too)
I then logged onto YouTube played a few songs and was singing along – very lightly I might add, usually I put a lot into singing and could never sing softly. I thought that sounds ok – kept singing and I couldn’t believe what was happening.
Any song I put on I was able to sing almost effortlessly ….. Everything from The Script to Michael Jackson to Bon Jovi
I went for a drive in my car – hit the random button and I was singing along to everything with ease and shock !!!!!!!
I’ve just got home writing this my throat still feels naturally open – then again I’ve been singing for 4 hrs straight, vowel mods were automatic breathing was auto pilot and this is hard to convey in words but its like something magic has happened today, keeping in mind I abandoned my workout today (first time ever) it’s just the strangest thing.”

“Ken Tamplin not only demonstrates mastery of the voice, but also a mastery in teaching. His knowledge of vocal performance and health is taught in a manner that is easy-to-understand with effective exercises that will undoubtedly grow one’s voice.
In addition to this, Ken is a genuine coach who cares about his students. He truly is not just a voice that is hours away. He engages and responds to those who seek help and I was amazed at how quickly he personally replied to my questions.
I bought “How to Sing- Better Than Anyone Else” and am extremely pleased with my growth thus far. Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy is the real deal and I would recommend Kens teachings to anyone who wants to take singing seriously.”

There is NO competition for KTVA
“I can’t thank you enough for what you have done for me and my voice.
It is utterly amazing. I spent YEARS trying to do the things I am
doing now and had resigned myself that my voice is just my voice and
nothing could change that. Working with you couldn’t be further from the truth. In one year, I
am doing things I had only dreamed of doing (amidst all the colds and
flu I still even grew through that!!!) Doing the lessons every day, I get stronger and stronger… getting a
solid grasp of my voice as an instrument thanks to you!!!
The
new head voice practice has been powerful, and it is definitely giving
me another perspective as far as my options. Man, I can never thank
you enough for all the growth I have experienced and continue to
experience – I am still learning and growing every day. You are truly
the best, dude!!!!!”

The best singing course!
“I have been a Pro singer and studying voice for 20 yrs. I have been a fan of Ken since his Shout days. As soon as I found out he was teaching voice I knew I wanted to learn from him. His voice alone is an inspiration, and he is a great instructor. My voice has grown beyond even my expectations. Finally I have met the man in person had him work with me for only an hour and I’ve seen dramatic improvements. This course is legit and will help you get closer to your goals as a vocalist.”

I never thought I could have a voice like this!
“I just wanted to say thank you for your vocal lessons. I am a very busy person so I have only gotten to work through Stage one (I played around with it a year ago, but finally had time to do some serious work a few months ago) and I am beginning to work on stage two. I have already had so much improvement in my voice! I had been praying for God to bless my singing voice and he has definitely used you in answering that prayer. I am excited to see how my voice continues to grow and improve.I always had a really quiet, sweet and weak voice, but not anymore!”

KTVA
“There are no words to describe how Amazing KTVA is , It´s simply the best Singing method in the world. It had helped me to unlock parts of my voice i was not able to use before and even do things i never thought i was physically able to do. Im not a natural singer and to be honest i never thought i was going to be where i am right now. I highly recommend Ken´s Method because he SHOWS you how to do it and it WORKS whether you are a professional singer or not making the ¨ impossible ´ POSSIBLE. I got nothing to say but THANK YOU Ken , You Fn Rock Dude.”
