Do it Excercise :
Sit on the floor feet tucked under you, stretch out your arms and upper body. Notice how low and expanded
your breath is in this “child’s pose” yoga position. Only do this if it feels comfortable. Make the hissing sound
keeping the body expanded in this position.
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.
