What You Will Learn?

  • Join me for this class on vocal technique where you’ll learn all the fundamentals of Chest Voice. .
  • Voice registers: Chest Voice and Head Voice - are probably the number one key factor to get to know your voice. .
  • I always advise my students to start discovering their voices by tapping into the chest voice. Once you have a basic understanding of breathing technique, you’d want to start exploring your vocal registers. They work as a guiding map that will help you to solve the most common vocal problems singers are faced with. .
  • In this class, you will learn about chest voice and its characteristics. Which tools can you use to find it in your own voice? We will go through practical exercises that you can incorporate into your daily vocal warm-up. These will set you up for success developing and strengthening your chest voice!.
  • This class is designed in a fun and engaging way. No previous experience with singing is required. You will learn:.
  • By the end of this lesson, you will have:.
  • I highly recommend that you check my first lesson on Breathing Exercises: https://skl.sh/2Tyt8Bb or even my lesson on 12 Habits to become a great singer: https://skl.sh/2YAe2wO.
  • In singing everything works together, so you definitely need a solid breathing technique before going into vocal registers. .
  • Training your chest voice can be a long process and one that you should also be cautious about. Never push your voice, always listen to your body, and, especially in the beginning, never practice for more than 15 or 20 minutes without a break. Until you have established your vocal technique it’s way better to practice for very short periods of time but more often..
  • I highly encourage you to take part in this lesson’s PROJECT and share you singing a song where you use your chest voice at some point. You can simply record an audio (or video) of yourself with your cell phone and upload it to the project section. I will get back to you with feedback and a list of exercises I believe will help you the most at this moment. Check the project section for more details..
  • I've found teaching to be one of my greatest passions and I'm very excited to launch this series of singing classes. I will be sharing with you the basics of a healthy singing technique that allows anyone to improve their voice in a short time and achieve real and visible progress! I believe singing is a very natural action. We only need to tap into our body's instincts and allow our natural voice to develop. It's an exciting journey and I feel super privileged to help you through yours!.
