[TPIN] "Fix your chops" - Turvat Kuntoon.

[Ole J. Utnes]

"Turvat Kuntoon" is a method from Finland.

Have any of you heard about it? My guess is that you have not.

"They seems be be good at keeping things a secret in Finland!" as my
friend Olaf said to me recently.

Anyway - I think it is one of the most interesting methods I have seen
lately. (I have been using it for about two months).

It has something in common with BE (The Balanced Embouchure) in that
it is a set of exercises that indirectly changes your chops. You do
the exercises following a suggested lesson plan. Then over time your
chops will get better (better sound, endurance, range).

I have written a little article about it:
