Thanks for the class and DVD's. They are very
helpful. The hardest part will be to actually do the exercises on a
regular basis. Perhaps we will meet again. Thanks again for your
generosity.

I'm excited about the possibility of improving (and
maintaining) my voice by using the DVD three times per week without
even leaving home.

I have watched the DVD in order to review it for the
journal and it's excellent."

We have used the Voice Aerobics DVD for about 3
weeks. It is very informative and fun. It gives a good workout of
controlled exercises and you really feel good afterward. The amazing
thing is we find ourselves humming or singing along with the radio,
which we didn't do before. I would highly recommend it to anyone with
speech or muscle control problems.
~ Terrill and Ruth Nederveld
The best part of the cruise? I enjoyed the voice
aerobics so much. It's right up my alley and something I really
needed. The woman was kind and attentive, and we even received her
voice aerobics disc in our goodie bag. I've played it at home and can
see a real difference.

I attended your October 30, 2010 presentation
of Voice Aerobics to learn more about supporting my Parkinson's
friends. Well, the invaluable information was wonderful for
them, but also for me, personally. As someone dealing with
Post-Polio Syndrome including upper body and respiratory system
deficits, your Voice Aerobics added fun and focus to my overall
exercise routine. Thank you!
~ Bonnie McPartland, Post-Polio
Hi, Mary! Wanted to thank you again for your vibrant
and enthusiastic presentation at the Voice Aerobics workshop this past
Saturday! It was informative and thought-provoking, while at the same
time a barrel of fun!! If only, the more traditional aerobics classes
which I attend were half as engaging!!
As one of those who did not previously think I had any voice or speech
issues which necessitated any concern, I now realize, thanks to your
workshop, that even if this is true, all the more reason to commence a
daily "practice" incorporating the techniques which you have pioneered
to insure that this continues to be the case in the future.

Love your Songbird DVD. I use it in class at
Lee Center for Rehab & Wellness. Are you considering putting out
another one?
~ Kathy G.
Hi Mary, I love your blog and enjoyed you so much at last
weekend's retreat. My husband and I immediately did the songbird CD.
~ Elizabeth
My dad has lots of exercise for Parkinson’s DVDs but
yours is the one he does everyday. My mom likes to join him because
it’s a fun class and the exercises are easy and help lower her
stress. Dad enjoys feeling part of your workout group. Thanks for
your enthusiasm and sincere spirit.
~ Patricia W.
Hi Mary. Thank you for your response and advice. I
received the amplifier, and it is so great and wonderful to be able to
hear me again. Thank you again for your help!
~ G.
Hi, Mary! I meant to send you a thank-you for the
wonderful articles you write about Parkinson's disease. I think you
must be an awesome person as well as an awesome speech therapist!
Thank you so much for sharing your literary expertise with my readers
of the Parkinson Foundation of Harris County (Houston) monthly
Bulletin.

Voice Aerobics Amplifier Reviews
October 2011,
I am thoroughly enjoying your dvd, cd and the amplifier. You
have done a great job in making it easy to use the products and made it very
helpful. The amplifier allows me to communicate better with everyone of my
family and friends and also it is very portable and manageable. The dvd and cd
are fun to use and also have been very cleverly designed to promote speech and
as well do a lot of stretching exercises.
God bless you, I have had Parkinson's Disease for the past 12 years and have
taken a lot of speech therapy sessions and your products have made it easier to
continue with my speech exercises. I would highly recommend all three products
to anyone who has speech problems. Keep up the good work Mary, and Thank You
Kindly for making it easier for me. Best Regards,
~ Hari, Ontario Canada

Thank you! I have been meaning to check in with you and well...time just gets by
so quickly! I am nothing but pleased!!! I will continue to pass the information
on to other contract instructors....and apparently students are interested too!
Voice is back to normal and I am doing what I can to make sure to keep it that
way too!
~ Annetta, Seminar Leader
I could definitely feel that my voice was not nearly
as "tired" at the end of an all day seminar. I could speak to a group
all day without constantly worrying where I was looking when I was
speaking; it made it easier to walk around in the room or point to my
slide presentation and everyone could still hear me. Superior to lapel
mc or fixed mic since the voice amplifier "follows you" or "moves with
you" - you aren’t controlled by it.
