GBWe are so thankful for Richard and his Thoga classes! There are not enough words to describe how incredible Richard Fink IV is!! Richard is a fantastic coach - and he LOVES teaching and singing! My son went through puberty, a major voice change, and he had lost much of his natural confidence while struggling to find his voice again. Richard, Throga, the vocal gym and the seven dimensions of singing all gave my son the JOY back when he sings! I love listening to Richard coach him every week and hear Cameron continuously improve. Richard takes the time to assess what portions of his voice / vocal cords that Cameron can strengthen and fosters his love of singing and performing. He is an incredible coach and I would HIGHLY recommend him and his Seven Dimensions of Singing to anyone that is looking to grow their vocal talents.

GBThe best! Richard Fink IV and his Throga technique and & 7 dimensions of singing are the best! My daughter started with him and lacked any confidence in her singing abilities. She would never let me hear her sing and she would dread any auditions where there was singing. Since then I hear her singing to herself on a regular basis and she no longer fears those auditions and there has been a definite change in her and her voice. I look forward to seeing and hearing the continued growth in her voice and her confidence with Richard!

AUIt’s so great to find a program that… It’s so great to find a program that properly teaches about the voice and it’s use by relating the physiology of the voice to its practice and techniques! Understanding the basics of how the voice works physically really unlocks a new way of thinking about singing! Breaking down everything into “The 7 dimensions of singing” is super helpful in pinpointing what exactly to work on and then having the Vocal Gym to show you exactly how exercises are done and provide clear instruction is just fantastic. Plus Richard Fink IV who coaches you through the program keeps things really interesting with anecdotes and just explains everything so clearly. I’ve seen a lot of good and bad courses provided both online and at institutes and this is easily one of the best for getting to grips with how a real singer can use their voice to its potential! Definitely recommend!

GBThroga is truly wonderful! This review is long overdue, and it's so important to share our powerful experience with Throga, Richard Fink IV, Johnny Cummings, Sam Polizzi, and the rest of the team! Our daughter attended the Throga music retreat at the age of 8, and she walked away with loving memories, as well as practical and critical tools that are still part of her vocal routine today. She also collaborated with Johnny and Sam, utilizing the Throga platform when writing, recording, and releasing three original songs that were dedicated to kids and teens who struggle with their emotions. Throga has a huge place in our hearts and we highly recommend exploring their menu and learning from Richard and the talented team.

GBA few years back I had vocal surgery to… A few years back I had vocal surgery to remove a granuloma on my vocal cords. After the surgery it was difficult to even talk. Richard took the time to understand what was happening with my voice and helped me to not only talk again but sing again! I highly recommend throga!
