Release all tension

🔊🎶 HOW TO BELT IN SINGING 🎧🎼⬇ 🔖🖊 ALIGNING YOUR SOUND 🎶🎸 📁🎹 Season 1. Episode 2. RELEASE ALL TENSION 🎤📘 Seriously. These notes will only come if you're totally relaxed. Most people hold unconscious tension on one side more than the other, so shake out your legs, grab your thighs and shake it around (seriously!), and resume the position. Your mind is tension-free, too, right? ◆If you need to, disengage your mind. Find a spot on the wall and think about it. Think about the mere existence of that smudge. Focus on the air in front of you or your finger. It's only when you stop listening to yourself that you can stop that nasty autocorrect inside of you. And for the record, that autocorrect you have isn't any better than your phone's. You sound better when you don't consciously try to change your sound. It needs to be natural!

Breathe from diaphragm

🔊🎶 HOW TO BELT IN SINGING 🎧🎼⬇ 🔖🖊 ALIGNING YOUR SOUND 🎶🎸 📁🎹 Season 1. Episode 2. BREATH FROM DIAPHRAGM🎤📘 Your shoulders shouldn't be doing any work. If you've worked with a coach before, you know they're big on you being centered. That means you are breathing and getting energy from your core. So breathe deep and fill those lungs, you're gonna need that air to power those notes. ●If you're not sure if you're breathing from your diaphragm, try this test: lay down. Place a book on your chest and breathe. If the book is moving, you're not breathing from your diaphragm! Try to keep the book completely, 100% steady.

Good posture

🔊🎶 HOW TO BELT IN SINGING 🎧🎼⬇ 🔖🖊 ALIGNING YOUR SOUND 🎶🎸 📁🎹 Season 1. Episode 1. GOOD POSTURE 🎤📘 Have good posture. You wouldn't try to shoot a basketball sitting down on the couch, would you? Well, you could, but the result probably wouldn't be too great. And the exact same thing goes for singing! Hold your head up, place your feet shoulder width apart with one a bit in front of the other, and relax your arms at your sides. Keep that up! ■Be conscious of how you stand. Do you tense up your shoulders or lock your knees out of habit? Do you slouch a little or rest all your weight on one side? These tips may sound nitpicky, but at the end of the day they can be the difference between an okay sound and a great sound.

How to belt in singing

🔊🎶 HOW TO BELT IN SINGING 🎧🎼⬇ ✍ INTRODUCTION ✍ Belting is becoming the norm for what a "good singing voice" sounds like; think Erica Campbell or Ccioma killing those high notes. It's the sound that's dominating musical theatre and the radio charts. And to think it used to be viewed as low-brow and unhealthy! Well, unfortunately, if you do it incorrectly it can be seriously and permanently destructive to your voice, so before you go about working on using your chest voice in your upper register, make sure you're doing it right! Wonderful episodes starts tomorrow. Please stay connected. God bless you

Regulate air flow

👉🏽📖🖊 RIGHT PROJECTION WHILE SINGING WHISTLE REGISTERS 🎼🎵 🎶📋🎤POWER BEHIND YOUR VOICE 🗣🎤 📝🎶 Season 1. Episode 5. REGULATE AIR FLOW 📘✒🎵🎵 It’s tempting to force a lot of air through your throat at once, but this can damage your vocal cords. Work on developing a continuous airflow from the start of the note to the finish. Mastery of breath management is an important prerequisite for singing in the whistle register. ◆Practice breathing deeply and slowly releasing the air. Let the air out as slowly as possible to increase your endurance. ◆Use this practice technique with a whistle note making it last as long as you can.

Keep your chin down

👉🏽📖🖊 RIGHT PROJECTION WHILE SINGING WHISTLE REGISTERS 🎼🎵 🎶📋🎤POWER BEHIND YOUR VOICE 🗣🎤 📝🎶 Season 1. Episode 4. KEEP YOUR CHIN DOWN 📘✒🎵🎵 Singers often raise their chin for more power, but this actually causes damage over time. When you are about to increase your power, keep your chin level. This technique eliminates the strain on your vocal cords, while also adding power to your voice. ●As you work on higher notes and enter the whistle register, notice a natural tendency to lift your chin and actively work against that tendency. It takes practice to retrain yourself, but it increases your power. For live lessons and interactive class join us on Telegram via https://t.me/joinchat/HX75GgrDht71Bi9HvZhz6w

Gospel Jaw

🎶🖋 HOW TO SING VIBRATO 🎤🗣 🎶🎹 EXERCISE TO PRODUCE VIBRATO-LIKE SOUND 🎼🎷 🎧🎹 Season 3. Episode 4. GOSPEL JAW 🎶 Don't give yourself "Gospel Jaw." You know those singers whose jaws move up and down with every hint of a vibrato cycle? This isn't how you're supposed to do it, whether you're Tasha cobbs or not. Your jaw should be completely relaxed during singing, along with every other part of your body. So, yes, moving your jaw up and down can mimic that sound, but it's not natural or healthy. ★This is often called "Gospel Jaw" because it's seen so prominently with Gospel singers. It's also called "jaw vibrato" as it's not emanating from your vocal folds, it's just vibrato produced with your jaw.
