I’ve never been able to belt correctly. I’m going to a preforming highschool for freshman year and I wanna be able to belt!

[@kaitlynkenney4837]

Thank you! I've been using this for "Dead Mom" from Beetlejuice The Musical, and this is helping a lot. Considering I'm 12, I was very discouraged about my belting, but this helped so much!

[@giana2676]

Kaitlyn Kenney be careful with singing dead mom she sings in a way that could hurt your voice be careful and don’t strain it! I’m a year older and working on belting too

[@ccbbuns16cooky]

[@alohafromsienna9510]

I have found my people... I CAME HERE FOR THE SAME REASON!! (I'm 13, can I still be part of the club?)

[@mrriver1408]

This totally works! I’ve be struggling with one note but as soon as I tried the hey thing I sang it with no strain at all

[@nightynightshade]

Wow. You are a brilliant teacher! Never have I belted a note that high! I actually did it!!! I subscribed and tapped the bell❤️

[@asociallyineptstranger409]

this is really helpful for me, as i started out with dead mom from beetlejuice but that was almost the peak of my vocal range for chest voice, but i REALLY wanted to try to do world burn

[@RG-5652]

I know I'm late, but thank you for this, i have to sing some Kiss songs at school and i was really hurting my throat. This helped so much.

[@Ruubearr]

I used to be able to belt very well and I started choir this year for school and now I can't do it so I'm here to learn again

[@nebulathedivine]

Liked & subscribed! I'm a 37 year old mom of two and I want to feel that powerful freedom when singing. Im 100% sure I sound like a trapped mouse when belting. I will binge watch all of your YT vids and learn more! Thank you for sharing. Love and Light

That didn’t feel like.. belting? I dont know nothing really felt different. My mom always told me she lost her voice when she first belted so i musta been doing it wrong

[@gabriellacarolina2394]

maybe she did it wrong because she shouldnt have lost her voice if she did it right.

[@kargovroom7701]

Your mom probably had no breath support and she could’ve been yelling while she was belting. That’s a common mistake, even most famous singers sing that way. It may make your voice sound good, but makes you lose your voice afterwards

[@leila.sabrina1182]

if your mom lost her voice then she wasn't doing it correctly.

[@thea_okosi]

Such a helpful vocal coach! Some other vocal lessons I watch on KZbin don't help me, but this video helped a lot. Thank you!

[@sophiasantos4778]

You're an incredible teacher! Keep doing what you're doing ❤️

What having 4 octaves of vocal range matter when I always strain my belted high notes 😭 I feel very comfortable with whistles, so not hitting the notes is not my problem

[@witty_izzy]

[@Anamrxx]

I’m working on being able to belt in higher notes, I feel like at times my voice is too loud. Those who do Kapahaka will understand 😭😂 also learning how to sing with a mic so helpful thank you

[@shaynehorner1270]

thank you for this!! i’m trying maggie’s high note in “at the ballet” from a chorus line and it is HARD. i can reach the note, but i want it to be healthier and sound not so screechy. hope this helps :))))

[@inkerikavantera]

I have struggled a LOT with this emotional side- my jaws get tense the SECOND I am anxious. I have worked super hard for this- now for 2 years. Trauma therapy, taking care of my mental state & stress levels as well as singing rehearsals. I wonder what difference does it make if you're contralto? I'm not sure if i'm contralto or mezzo or is it simply the fact that I'm a self taught singer - you can literally hear me belting and making it softer Édith Piaf (big big fan^^) type version while I sing higher notes. You can also see me thinking "up and over up and over relax relax) My latest one is lovely Shania Twain's From This Moment On. Lower tunes come naturally for me but I definitely have in me to belt higher too.

[@corinthiaanderson2389]

Omg this is so helpful!!!! Thank you so much!!!

Du you have any recommendations how to learn to relax and be patient? I'm 46 and still didn't find a way 😅

[@minnie310]

I’m in lessons, so I know I have the right placement and breath, because it feels right. But even when I do this, my voice still sounds covered and opera like. Any advice? it’s been like this for years and I’m slowly losing hope.😅

[@neapolitanice-cream8363]

Could that possibly just be your voice?

[@larsheijne4586]

•minnie • try removing vibratto, this sound is probably because you’re masking the belt maybe open your mouth a lil more and transition into an /a/

[@queenfan599]

Ok I feel really stupid right now but belting isn’t supposed to be the higher pitched soft voice, but instead your like shouting voice but singing, idk if that makes sense but I’m super confused and am not sure which one cause the shouting singing one sounds terrible but the higher softer pitched one feels too high and fake so I really need help.

Thank you so much for this lesson! You're awesome! But I'm always not sure if I'm already belting/ mixing voices, or if I'm still singing only with head voice, because it's loud but not as powerful as I see some singers do, so how do I know? Thank you in advance 😊

[@chloehuckins4377]

I’m here, because I really am struggling in belting higher. I am trying to sing I say no from Heathers and during the chorus the higher notes feel flat and forced. I am like literally in tears, because every tutorial I find it doesn’t seem to help much. I’ve been in choir for years and music even longer. I am a soprano as well so I can sing high in my head voice and well, but I have a hard time belting in my mixed voice. I don’t know how to belt it out without feeling forced or flat. I try relaxing but it feels like my vocal chords tense up anyways. Anything really I am grasping for any help here. I do the exercises and I have good breathe support, but I can’t seem to figure this out. :(

I can honestly say everything she’s saying about the diaphragm is exactly the same in screaming. If you scream from your throat you will destroy your voice and it sounds weaker. I’m just now learning to sing clean vocals, I’m surprised to see so many similarities.
