BRISTOL RECORDING AND VOICE STUDIOS
Here's what our clients have to say about our voice program ~ It
wasnt until I came to Bristol that I heard the analogy Why would
you take tap dancing from a ballet instructor?' And that seemed to
hit the nail right on the head. Im a punk rock singer, but I had
basically been going to people who were trying to teach me classical
music.
Now when I sing Im able to visualize my voice and do everything
that Im visualizing for the song, whereas before I didnt really
understand what I was doing. I just kind of did it because that was
the way I always did it and I never really examined my singing until
Ric Poulin broke it down for me.
I think so many people out there are seeing vocal teachers who
dont know what theyre talking about. And thats the difference. If
your vocal coach is unable to get you out of the mud, then guess what
dude, youre wasting your money. Its as simple as that. ~ A.B.
(lead singer of international/major label punk/rock band)
"Taking lessons with Ric was a great investment and it really helped
me maximize my potential as a pop singer! I used to strain to 'belt'
out the higher notes. I learned the correct technique during the
first lesson. I don't hurt myself anymore! My voice changed
completely and became more powerful after 3 lessons with Ric. It
killed me in retrospect to think about how much money I spent on
lessons with the wrong teachers prior to finding Bristol." ~ J.T. of
JADA, Universal/Motown

Nationally renowned artists and THINK AGAIN co-founders, S.A. Bachman and David John Attyah, are known for social issue art, which can be a platform for intellectual dialogue and can inspire individuals to social action. This project features a 67-foot interior wall mural in the museum's Renaissance Court.

Taproot Bookstore, 1200 West Boylston Street, Worcester, MA
Chanting OM
Come and enjoy the unique sound and feeling of chanting OM and use your voice to bring about peace and relaxation in your life.
Chanting improves the way you breathe. As we grow older we adopt unhealthy patterns of breathing like Reverse Breathing, Chest Breathing and patterns of holding breath because of stress. Using the technique of chanting brings you back into a pattern of natural, healthy breathing much like a newborn breathes.
This class is about using the sacred universal chant of OM to help improve your life and enjoy the gradual effect on how you breathe. Share your voice with long-time and brand new students. Your voice is important, and needs to be heard. Please come and share it with the universe. The class is casual and is open to all-no experience necessary.
If you want more information about the teacher Bob Stickles go to his website at www.universalsourcehealing.com or for information on the Taproot Bookstore go to their website at www.taprootbookstore.com
Time: Class starts at 9:15 A.M. sharp please get there early or risk being locked out.

In addition AAS provides a backyard astronomy course for the Worcester Public Schools Adult Education (Night Life) program.
