Every lesson will include working on a song of your choice (or mine if that’s what you need). Additionally, here’s a basic idea of what to expect during each lesson :) Remember to always have FUN!
• Warm-Up: Lip trills, humming, and sirens to relax your voice and prepare for singing.
• Breathing Exercises: Diaphragmatic breathing with hand on stomach; hold a steady “sss” sound for as long as possible.
• Pitch Matching: Play simple notes on a piano or app and match them with your voice.
• Sustain Notes: Hold a steady note like “ah” or “oo,” focusing on smooth airflow and control.
• Song Application: Sing simple songs, focusing on integrating breathing, tone, and resonance techniques.
• Advanced Scales: Practice chromatic scales and experiment with different rhythms.
• Expression and Dynamics: Work on emotional delivery—adjust volume, phrasing, and tone to express the song’s mood.
• Improvisation: Explore runs, riffs, and adding stylistic flair to your singing.
• Consistency: Develop a personalized routine, practicing daily for 30-45 minutes and tracking progress.
• Warm-Up Variations: Add yawn-sighs and hum scales on “mm” or “ng” to strengthen resonance.
• Scales and Intervals: Move beyond 5-note scales to full octave scales and arpeggios.
• Resonance: Use “ng” exercises and transition to open vowels like “ah” or “ee” while keeping vibrations forward.
• Diction: Sing tongue twisters like “Peter Piper” or “Red leather, yellow leather” on scales.
• Breath Control: Increase the duration of sustained notes; focus on dynamic control (soft to loud).
• Warm-Up: Repeat lip trills and sirens but extend range from low to high.
• Breathing + Stamina: Add “ha-ha-ha” staccato sounds to engage the diaphragm.
• Scales: Sing 5-note scales (C-D-E-F-G-F-E-D-C) and experiment with vowels like “la” or “ma.”
• Octave Slides: Slide from low to high on “ng” or “oo” for range flexibility.
• Pitch Practice: Use a scale app or sing back short melodies for accuracy.
