And Of Course - SINGING!

Exercise: Rather than just taking a long deep breath - try taking quick ‘sips’. Once you feel comfortable with your new way of breathing, start reciting the months of the year. Try and see how many months you can get to before you’re out of air. “Easy”, you say! “I will just go really fast”. Ok, the idea is to recite each month as slow and controlled as you can be. This is the beginning of how you develop breathing for singing.

How Can Posture Affect Your Singing?

Improving your singing voice depends much on your ability to release and stay free of tension. Tension is discomforting and greatly restricts air flow - forcing you to labour and stress, rather than relaxing and singing with true freedom.

The key is to align your body and prepare it’s parts to create and support your voice.

Exercise: Stand with your back to a wall, opposite a mirror is better. Place your head to the wall so your chin is parallel to the floor. Roll your shoulders to the wall, now slowly move your back to the wall and stop just before your spine touches. Find your balance. Close your eyes and take a deep slow breath. The only tension should be in your abdominals. You should be able to feel how easily the air flows through your lungs.

Try holding your index finger roughly an inch from your lips and breathe out very slowly, while trying to notice the movement of your diaphragm as you exhale. This will be the same amount of breath you take when you singing.

You should never 'push' or 'force' air through your vocal cords to produce a strong or loud sound, which will increase air pressure against the vocal folds may damage to them.
