Sick of pulling your hair out because:

• You have no idea how to learn growling. 
• You do warm ups and use the diaphragm, but it still hurts after 2 seconds every time. 
• You’ve seen 100 youtube videos but you still don't know how to *actually* scream. 
• You’ve had a secret fantasy of growling for ages, but it felt like it could never be possible for you. 
• You can growl a bit, but feel like you can’t trust your vocals to work well enough to get a band. 
• You wanna express your feelings with your screams, but it doesn’t work and you end up frustrated and disappointed.  
• You wish you could learn to growl, but you’re scared of ruining your singing voice. 

It doesn't have to be like that

Picture this instead: 

A few months from now... 

You can growl your favorite song, and absolutely nail it. 

You have this awesome wall of distorted screams inside of you, that you can just unleash upon the world at will, and you can’t help but feel powerful.  

You're proud of your vocals and you even genuinely love your voice. 

Screaming feels great and it doesn’t hurt.

You know when your extreme vocals are healthy and when they're not, and how to fix it. You’ve learnt to read the feedback from your body.  

You trust yourself and you trust your vocals to work every time you feel like screaming. 

You know how to prevent vocal damage, so you’re not as worried about it anymore. 

Since growling also comes with magical side-effects:

You've gained a whole new level of confidence: 

You've gone from hiding in the shadows to standing at the front of the crowd, growling the lyrics right back in the face of your favorite vocalist. You start taking up more space in every area of your life. 

You start to feel like a badass. 

You dare to do what you really wanna do with your voice: Like posting videos of you screaming, writing your own songs, auditioning for a band, getting on stage and absolutely nailing it. 

You have the power and the freedom to truly express yourself with your unique screams. 

How Growl like a Beast Works:

 Growl like a Beast has 3 pillars:

The course portal with pre-recorded videos, the facebook group and the Group Scream Coaching Calls where you will get help from me in real-time. 

The Course Portal: 

The course-period runs over 8 weeks, and is split into 7 modules. 

(See the program below for more info.) 

Every week you get access to a new module, with a set of training videos specifically designed to give you the steps and the tools you need in the optimal order. 

I guide you through the step by step process in these videos. You know exactly what to do, and how to develop your vocals. 

There are several concrete tools to reach every step because we learn in different ways. 

This way of learning is great, because you can listen to me when and where you want, speed me up, slow me down and rewind to play the sound examples over again. 

The Facebook Group: 

You get help every step of the way in a private facebook group. 

Here you can ask me questions and post videos of your progress and challenges, so I can help you.

I either write back what to do to scream better, or I answer in a short video made just for you, if I feel like you need sound examples.  

Group Scream Coaching Calls on Zoom:

We have Group Coaching Calls every week, 8 in total. 

They start at 18:00 CET, and last until 19:00 or about 19:30. 

This is where you can get personal coaching from me in front of the group (they are there to cheer for you, and to support you) and you can learn from the others as well.  

These meetings will be recorded, so that you can watch them later in case you miss it. You can also send me your questions in an email before the call, if you can't be there in person. 

Learning to Growl in 8 weeks sounded Completely Crazy: 

I had never tried growling before, and I thought it was impossible for someone like me to learn. 

When Katarina said she could teach me in just 8 weeks, I thought it sounded completely crazy. 

But I signed up anyway, and it turned out to be my best decision this year! 

If you want to learn, I very much recommend Growl like a Beast!”

- Linn

Check out her cover of Amorphis'  "The Bee". That she made after Growl like a Beast summer 2021, it also shows her progress.  

Now he can scream full concerts without any pain.

Robert could already scream before doing Growl like a Beast, but wanted to make his vocals more sustainable and healthy. 

“I could only scream a few minutes, before hurting or getting hoarse. I watched people on YouTube, but I didn’t learn anything. 

Now I can scream at band practice and full concerts with my band Blodkarsk, without any pain.

If it hadn’t been for Growl like a Beast, I’d still be fumbling in the dark. The course helped me a lot.” 

- Robert

Original song by Robert's band Blodkarsk; "Over Svart Blautmyr"  

From struggling to scream a few words, to recording for 3 hours without getting hoarse. 

“Last fall I signed up for Growl like a Beast, it turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. 

It’s so incredibly awesome that I’ve gone from struggling to growl a few words to being in the studio for 3 hours without getting hoarse.”

- Stine

She did Growl like a Beast in the fall of 2021, and made a cover-song shortly afterwards.  

From Stagefright to Posting Growling Videos Online 

"I had no experience with growling. I did folk music but I haven’t been much on stage because I’ve been way too nervous. 

One of the best parts was the group, who was so supportive and became such a safe community. 

After the course I’ve made 2 vocal covers and even dared to share them online! 

I would absolutely recommend signing up, but part of me also wants to say: don’t do it!! I don’t want competition and I’m sure you’ll be awesome at growling with Katarina's help.” 

- Astri

Click the video to listen to her cover of "We Will Rise" by Arch Enemy.  That she made after Growl like a Beast summer 2021. 

Absolutely killed it on stage, growling for a whole set with no problems afterwards.

"I'm very happy with my vocals that are inspired by Michael Åkerfelt from Opeth!

And that I've had the opportunity to go to studio and record a cover song, and growl on stage with a band, without any voice problems afterwards."

 - Kajsa

The first person I taught to growl, before I made the course : )

You can growl every section of the song separately. 

Extreme vocals made

faster, easier and more fun

It would take at least 40 single lessons to go through everything that’s covered in Growl like a Beast, and it would cost so much more to do everything 1-1 with me.  

Instead you get: 

• Vocal freedom, the power to get it out and truly express yourself.  
• The ability to just whip out a gut-wrenching scream whenever you feel like it. 
• To scream with a totally healthy voice afterwards.
• A confidence that seeps into every area of your life, so that you’ll dare to shine more and do what you dream of. 
• Growl your favorite songs or your own songs with your own band.  
• To be proud of your vocals and love your voice. 

For 666 euros, and you STILL have the opportunity to get personal feedback from me in the fb-group and in our weekly Group Scream Coaching Calls. 

You’re gonna learn a lot faster, and have way more fun doing this as part of a group. The group gives you synergy, inspiration and a supportive community that cheers for you every step of the way to vocal freedom.
