Jessie-
-We breathe into the lungs, not the belly. The belly will respond to the lungs. Trust that.
-Find rib expansion higher than you think you need to.
-Slow down your inward breathing so that the diaphragm can work naturally.
-Relax the stomach area.
-Be taller through the torso
-Have the feeling of the head being lifted off of the head. Put the pinky in to create mouth space. Lift and pull backward the cheekbones
-Give yourself permission to be okay. Let go of all of the stress that you hold.
Chris Machado-
-Call your voice an instrument to set aside yourself from it emotionally.
-Find a part of your voice that works well and use that sound as a model for elsewhere.
-Lift up with the thumb underneath the armpits
-If you push the belly out then your tongue will retract
-”g” can pull the sound back
-Find a vowel that is healthy and comfortable, then relay that to the actual vowel.
-Learn how to vibrate your consonants so that the breath doesn’t stop.
AnnikaBella Thorup- Somebody, Somewhere (The Most Happy Fella)
-Have pride in your instrument. This is always okay unless you are showing that you are better than somebody.
-There is a slight loss of connection moving up to the highest parts of the song at the end.
-Identify where you feel and hold tension
-What is the purpose of the jaw? We don’t shape the jaw, we position the jaw. Think of the backward hinge
-If you use the “baseball glove” to move the jaw backward, you won’t feel the jaw click.
-Aim the sound through the center of the hard palate and up through the skull
