Vocal Science

Ms. Yampolsky's coaching concentrates not just on the voice, but on the performer as a whole. Her approach can boost stage confidence by improving the voice's range, pitch and power. She believes that a singer has 25% natural talent, while 75% of a singer's performance relies on technical training. Her special exercises enable the singer to meet any combinations of pitch and duration of sound. Ms.Yampolsky views the body as an instrument whose quality of well being determines the quality of sound produced and recognizes that the voice is a reflection of the 'inner self.' All courses are customized to the unique needs of each individual singer and program the brain's 'computer chip' using visualization and vocal repetition. The Vocal Science^TM Method alleviates strain on vocal cords and developes proper use of facial and abdominal muscles while stressing posture.

Born in Russia, Diana Yampolsky has dedicated her life to music - it's study, application & performance. Her studies led her to the Leningrad School of Music and the Leningrad Music Teachers' College. In 1976, she received a Bachelor's degree in Music Education specializing in voice and piano. While in Leningrad she was a choir director, a public school music teacher, and a private vocal coach. During her tenure as choir director in Russia, her choir placed first in the Leningrad (St. Petersburg) music competitions. Diana's personal breakthrough in vocal technique came one day during a song demonstration to a group of students; she experienced an extraordinary transformation in the brightness, tone, range and power of her voice. Even with her extensive training, Diana had never realized her true vocal potential until that moment. This breakthrough was the beginning of her innovative concept in Vocal ScienceTM. Since 1980, Diana has been teaching in Toronto, specializing in voice. She continued to further develop her innovative vocal method. Her efforts have resulted in the creation of the Royans Revolutionary Accelerated Vocal Development Technique; The Royans School for the Musical Performing Arts was opened in 1984 to teach this technique to the public. Today, Diana works with both aspiring singers and established artists, as well as many fine producers, engineers and managers within the music industry.

Through her revolutionary vocal technique, special exercises and natural herbal remedies, she can resolve most vocal problems naturally and prevent singers and speakers from having to resort to surgical procedures and pharmaceutical products that often produce unwanted side effects.
