From now on it seems like things are a bit more tricky to explain! My homework for today: trying to breathe without making a sound. It’s designed to open things up and release stress in your vocal chords. Try and see if you can do it. With all this new stuff I’m learning, I’d certainly recommend getting a voice coaching programme ( I haven’t tried any out yet so can’t give any recommendations just yet), or do as I’ve done and get a voice coach. Just like your students, it is possible to do it on your own, but for the motivation and feedback a teacher is really useful.
