CLICK HERE TO BE TAKEN TO THE CALISTHENICS SITE TO VIEW A VISUALLY COMPLETE BUT LIMITED ACCESS DEMONSTRATION OF THE CALISTHENIC PROGRAMME AS PRESENTED ON THE CD-ROM

THE COLOURED PLAY-LINKS ARE ACTIVE

The calisthenic explanation pages give an overview of the programme which has proved to be an effective way of developing and realising the potential of voices of varying initial abilities. The calisthenics provide a regular, repetitive set of exercises which provide a basis for singing in all styles and the backing-tracks ensure that home-practice is effective and enjoyable-the equivalent of having a resident accompanist or combo! As is described in these pages the trumpet has been an important aspect of the development of this programme and tuition in this instrument is also available.
