Basic Breathing Exercises for better Singing, Tip-12

Do it Excercise :

Yell “hey” (one hand on your belly) with an open feeling in your throat as if you were calling to someone
across a large room. Notice how your lower body supports your voice. The calling out should activate the
“power point” area beneath your sternum.

Note:

Do not worry if low-abdominal breathing doesn’t feel as “deep” as clavicular- “stomach pushed-in chest
high” inhalation. What you are feeling is a decrease in tension-which is good!
You are not ready to start warming up your voice until your body has found good alignment, posture and breath.
Think of an artist stretchimg her canvas! Now you are ready to start painting.


Note:

These are posted for educational use only. They do not substitute for actual voice lessons. These
are done by yourself at your own risk, although it is my intention that they help you.
