RECCOMENDATIONS

Bence Nádas, World and European champion kayaker

„It was a huge help that Zsófi taught me how to be present in the moment, and it also meant a lot to learn during the lessons together how to breathe in a way that I fully utilize my lungs.

By the way, I also managed to find my voice while working together. One of the other nice benefits was that while kayaking I can now let go of muscles I don’t use. There is no unnecessary tension in my neck or jaw.”

Eszter Finszter, singer (Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music)

„I got to know Zsófi’s method a few months ago. My singing teacher sent me to her to help me release the inner tensions that prevented me from being myself on stage. I had a terrible shortness of breath and a pressure to conform, so I couldn’t perform naturally in any area. After a few sessions, I stopped taking allergy medication because I was getting better at breathing. I have not needed it since.

Her method focuses on breathing and sound production, but not in the traditional, familiar sense. We don’t have to sing beautifully with her, but simply from the heart. Which is often not beautiful. But that’s the point, to let what’s inside us in the moment, what we feel, flow freely out of us. The exercises, which are mostly done on a flexible rubber ball, not only help us to relax physically and find our own voice, but also develop us mentally. Thanks to her, I am much more balanced and better able to handle stressful situations. I’ve had a lot of opportunities to perform recently and my first ever job interview was a success. A year ago this would have been unthinkable for me. The kindness, patience and energy she emits is recharging, healing, relaxing and helps you find yourself and your own voice.”

Viki Lábas – singer of Margaret Island (Hungarian Music group)

„After 12 years of pop singing school, 4 years of classical singing lessons and 8 years of singing in an active band, I started to feel that the constrictions I had picked up over the years were beginning to inhibit me and I didn’t want to lose my original voice – and myself. So I turned to Zsófi. After the first lesson, I realised how much I had hardened myself on the outside and that my breathing was not stable, so I urgently needed to change if I wanted to continue singing on stage.

It felt really good not to sing in class, but to get back to myself, to my own natural voice, to speak in my body. Zsófi is a very radiant, open person, who you can trust. I left the first session with a smile and a lighter spirit and this was just the beginning, I feel that Zsófi’s knowledge gives people wings and as soon as we can let go, not only our voice will fly but also our everyday burdens fly away.”

Dr. Zsófia Onyestyák – paediatrician

„I went to Zsófi for help with polyarthritis, which did not improve with medication. I was a bit sceptical because on the one hand I can’t sing and I don’t like singing, and on the other hand, being a doctor, I believe more in evidence-based medicine. The first surprise was when, despite a lifetime of being told “I had no voice,” I could sing almost everything back perfectly, I just had to let go.  After only half an hour, I was transformed, I felt weights weighing a ton falling off me, the circulation in my limbs started to improve and the pain was reduced. After three weeks of treatment, I was able to stop taking all my medications for inflammation. Zsófi’s method is far from being just about singing, it is a complex breathing, psycho- and manual therapy that works on the whole body by activating self-healing processes; it also helps learning to let go. I highly recommend it to anyone who is under increased stress, has breathing problems, faces chronic illness, life situation obstacles, unresolved issues, or just wants to feel like they are on the stage of La Scala in Milan!”
