---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Paul Kroeger <letgo2sing(a)gmail.com> Subject: Get the most out of your voice Lessons with an experienced teacher will help you get more out of your voice and your interest in singing. I have taught State Karaoke champions, barber shoppers, speech club winners as well as legit and theater singers. I don't give up on the elderly or those who have not sung in decades. Singing is at the heart of the human experience. Breathing is the key to improving it, so you want someone who can teach you what you don't already know about it or to remind you. Is it time you did some lessons? Call or reply to this email. Paul Kroeger 216-741-4762 and letgo2sing(a)yahoo.com
