“Gena was great and there was certainly a marked improvement when we sang in harmony together after we had been with Gena. We had a couple of singing teachers before but they were pink and fluffy and could only really teach opera; Gena understood where we were coming from and what we wanted to achieve. We all fancied her as well, which helped.” Mathew Priest Dodgy

“I’ve had a number of different voice coaches over the years but the great thing about Gena is that she works on your perception of yourself as a singer. Fear, doubt and a lack of self-confidence all affect the way that you sing and Gena tackles these head on. I was able to sweep away some extremely inhibiting ideas that I had imposed upon myself and I noticed the difference immediately”. Marie Findlay Mediaeval Baebes

“We improved our vocal range and technique, enabling us to reach the thousands of fans at our stadium gigs, all thanks to Gena’s lessons. She’s the greatest!” Robots In Disguise

“Gena has the most direct and effective approach to reaching the ‘natural’ voice inside…. you may not become an Opera singer by the end of the weekend but you will certainly discover your own unique and amazing sound….” Vi Subversa vocalist for The Poison Girls

“Gena really helped me with my presenting technique. She used various exercises to help me gauge the level of my performance andto get the right tone for television. Part of this was getting over my shyness and embarassment but more importantly she helped me to be myself on screen and to have the courage of my conviction. She also helped to pinpoint and get rid of some bad habits in the most gentle and sensitive way. Even now, I go through her principles before I start a new job or when I’m nervous and they are genuinely useful.” Katherine Harvey The Web Review for ITV

“After two sessions with Gena, even I was convinced I was Tom Jones.” Jeremy Nicholas, Mean Country 1035 am

“Gena Dry can add me to her list of ecstatic customers. In a nutshell: she claims ‘everyone loves singing and everyone can sing!’. I’ve never sung since one afternoon in my schooldays when an older child, during a carol concert, told me ‘just move your lips’. I know I’m tone deaf. I can’t sing. After one lesson, I knew I could sing. After the second, I knew I could sing passably well and with enjoyment. I can’t wait for the next lesson. Gena also works with people who can sing. Er.. like me. Highly recommended.” Jim Wade

“Nervous about a giving a presentation on a subject you know? This will pale into insignificance compared with singing a song (when you can’t sing) without accompaniment to 10 people you don’t know! Alternatively, you could try running down the street without any clothes on, but Gena’s workshops are more fun and you learn techniques for improving your vocal delivery.” Mike Fitzsimons

“What I got out of the workshop was that I had no idea that I could sound like that and it was a hell of a surprise to hear myself sing like that. Kept me giggling for days, so I think it gives you a big boost to the ego and the endorphine levels.” Alex Lee

“…being able to stand up and sing unaccompanied gives me more confidence to be able to express myself better in giving a presentation. Sharing the experience of the warm ups and group exercises helped to build trust and respect for each others unique voice. Delivering the mesage/song with meaning and engaging the audience is more important than the actual words in the lyrics/presentation script.” Rae Daniel

“… thank you and Alison for helping to get me ready for my interview. You guys were really great and got me all fired up. They still haven’t told us the results yet. I don’t think I got the job but I know I did a much better interview than I would have done without your help. Thanks. James Hodges

“The way you managed to push everyone to better themselves all in different, individual ways was amazing, as it’s something very few people manage when ‘teaching’ several people at once…. I can also add that what I’m doing right now has probably more to do than it appears with the confidence I built up in the last few months/years going to your classes. Like they say in the Dr Pepper ad: what’s the worse that could happen?” Val Gayrimond

“Thanks for everything over the last 6 months. I wouldn’t have believed learning to sing would have had such an effect on my confidence, let alone been such fun. You’re a great teacher and a very nice (if utterly loopy, obviously) person.”David May

“Where do you see yourself in 10 years time? I never did like that type of question and now I know why. I wasn’t ’supposed’ to sing, or write, perform, play guitar, record or live the life that I do now. Yet, these things have become and important part of how I live and who I am. ‘Gena runs workshops’. That is what I was told and I was ready to test my mettle at a time when singing was a silent thing that I crept away to do in private. Gena never said ’sing’. She said feel, picture, experience. That is what I wanted and that is what I got. She has been there every step of the way with me. If I had said to her ‘I dare to dream’, she would have said ‘Here’s the space to do it’!” Viv Youell

“My mum handed me an ad in the paper, when I was looking for a singing teacher, and I gave Gena a call and I’ve never looked back. I met Gena about 2 years ago, I think, and she has helped me immensely and has been one of the biggest guiding influences with regards to both my confidence and my music. I take my hat off to her as I was a tough nut to crack! The 11th hour she used to call me…because that’s when I’d finally produce the result she was looking for. I have gone on to record an album with my band having played many successful London gigs and gained a lot of support and interest, most of which make very complimentary comments on my voice, which can only credit Gena and I’ve also recorded a single with Azuli Records.” Maxine Barker
