Estill Exercises App | Estill Voice Training

Estill in the Palm of your Hand

By Luke Steinhauer, Customer Experience, Estill Voice International

After over a year of development, creation, revision, testing, revision (again…), The Estill Exercises App is finally here! With content in over six languages, brief overviews of each figure/ quality, and fun ways to practice, this app is your new voice training companion. The app is the present day evolution of our physical product, Figures in a Flash, originally conceived and developed by founding partner, Mary McDonald Klimek. Physical flash cards are transformed into mobile friendly pages and now, way more!

Mobile Friendly Brief Overviews

We’ve put all of the figures and voice qualities from the Estill Voice Model into this app (in SIX languages). Trying to isolate your true vocal folds but can’t remember the options? Click the TVF: Onset/Offset icon, and review! Can’t remember the hand signal for Cricoid Tilt? Click the Cricoid Icon, Click Tilt, see the hand signal. Need ways to practice Speech quality?

This app is your mobile learning companion to bridge, connect, and continue your learning from Estill Voice Training courses, workshops, and/or private lessons.

Fun Ways to Practice

Figures in a Flash is mobile flash cards that function just like the physical cards. See the figure, demonstrate the options on a vowel of your choice, and swipe for the next one. Practice quickly and efficiently, in six languages!
