Breath Support vs LOCKING THE VOICE? Stop Straining!

[@AverageJoe69420]

Support is by far the most difficult aspect for me. The feel, the pressure, the sensations. It's quite difficult for me haha. I've watched all your videos about breath support many times and they are very helpful. I especially like that you don't use the cue of going to the bathroom :D

[@Victoria-Victorious]

Thanks for posting! Keep practicing and have fun!

[@Mingmingmeow90]

I totally agree! I'm still on a long way of mastering support

I've just realized why I can't hold vocal warmups like trills for very long. I knew my breathing was the issue but I didn't realize it is "unsupported" singing like everyone talks about!! Thank you so much!

omg this is just what a need,truly a Godsend

[@Victoria-Victorious]

I'm so happy it helps you!

[@jxst.joshing]

I realized I was locking a lot on longer phrases because I thought I had to keep my abs and ribs suspended all the time after inhaling. Because of this my tongue root dropped and I couldn't ease into my high notes. Even harsh metal vocals that require a certain amount of compression were worse due to the oversuspending which intensified the compression so that my throat would feel tensed.

[@sophiematzke5732]

This video really helps me a lot. Suddenly I can sustain a note beautifully and there is even some natural vibrato! And I can get higher with less effort! Headvoice becomes possible without straining, now... Thank you, you are amazing!

This is brilliant, thank you. The main problem I have is tension in my throat, jaw, tongue etc. and I think it's sometimes because I focus too much on purely just tensing/locking my abs. This video has helped a ton, thank you.

Victoria, mio core!!! Hihi, hi Victoria and all you happy singing people! I cannot stress enough how much your videos have been and are a treasure indeed! Since I discovered your channel my singing went totally light years ahead! I have been studying classical technique privately for about little over a year with another year worth of break. Nowadays the lessons cannot happen due to pandemic, but I watch your videos in my own order (which corresponds with your suggestions during the videos) and boy oh boy, what a treat? It truly is life changing, mixing your teachings with teachings of my tutors in face to face lessons. I already put tons of it to use and the change is everlasting and empirical! Thank you and keep you doing what you do. Unfortunately, we are ocean apart, but thank God and you for your benevolence in teaching all of us the ways you do! Stay positive!

You’re amazing! I had a tendency to hold my breath before I sing and i also was inhaling to loudly. I didn’t know that I was doing it and when I went to singing lessons, my singing teacher pointed it out and it changed my life. My sound is coming out more freely. My abs are not tight when I’m singing. I enjoy singing more. Everything that you taught in this video was everything that my singing teacher taught me. You got a new subscriber!!

I love your teaching style and the details you provide. I can really get into this. For most people, maybe, the voice is the most neglected part of the human body. I think of it as a wonderful gift from God to express praise and thanks to Him and to inspire and encourage others listening. Just read in the Book of the Psalms. David or Solomon always had praises to sing to God. Thank you for giving your time and interest to teach us how to use this wonderful gift of singing!

Thank you soo very much. Im looking for voice lessons for my 9yr old son. Im not a trained singer , but i can sing higher as well when u take that breath cause im a tenor range. I dont like my own real signing voice. I did have painio lesaons for awhile as a child but i can only take him so far, my son is a tenor as well the complete outside of me almost.lol my husband is a singer and can sing better than me . but i like ur teaching style and u taught a 44 yr ild women that sings LOW, to not just strive to go alittle higher ,I did it. Thx to ur little tool, i have 3 kids a 21 yr old a 18 year old and a 9 yr. And all my kids are special but my to older children didnt get the god given gift, i wasnt going to have another baby, but at 21 yrs old i was handed my baby so he became my dream , and trust me i wanted them to have that extra god given gift, cause i didnt live mine out , but i know i dont have the gift i had to learn , when i heard my 3.5 yr old son start signing one day out of the blue i heard him playing in his room, and then i heard something i taught he hit the alarm clock etc. It was his voice, now hes 9 and he has this gift and im scard of it. So any advice , and im looking for private lessons for him hes a beginer with no bad habits of trying to sound like the singer, ge has his own sound and he didnt have to find it, that scard me to. ❤ but overall thank u!

[@randomfrog1196]

Hello again Victoria ^_^ So, if I understand correctly- support isn't intentionally pushing/hardening your stomach/abdominal muscles like a shell. Support is controlling how fast your stomach/abdomen (sometimes just called diaphragm area) pushes/releases air into your vocal cords? Support means slowing/regulating your air, which naturally in turn causes your said muscles to ENGAGE actively. Support isn't about tightening/hardening your muscles, which would mean LOCKING your said muscles so they can't aid the release of air. Am I going the right direction in this line of thought? Gosh, you're an amazing coach- I have never had so many breakthrough thoughts or different understandings of my voice as I have had while watching your videos. You're awesome, Miss Victoria! Thank you.

Thanks so much for this valuable advice, Victoria. I have two things to ask: 1. I keep my ribs open but the air moves freely in and out in controlled measure and I find that if I keep the ribs open, I have more power and I can sing longer notes. But you say this is not correct. What should I be doing instead? 2. Would I benefit from doing ab exercises every day - like to a six-pack?

[@Victoria-Victorious]

No, it sounds like you are not undetstanding completely. Pls see this video and do the exercises. The ribs should not lock open; nothing in singing should ever lock. Supporting the Voice (Breath Support) - CLEARLY & CORRECTLY explained - FINALLY! (VIDEO #12) - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYOVaGpoiaylndE Forget about the six-pack abs, LOL.

I have never heard the lower ab info before. What an eye opener! My main focus after eliminating vocal polyps is to get better breath support. I can hiss and it's steady, but when I get to a certain point I feel a little lightheaded. I am sitting down so no worries there. I hope the more I work on this the less that will happen. Could I be inhaling too much and hyperventilating? Thanks for all of the wonderful, helpful videos.

I cannot tell for sure without seeing and hearing you, but make sure that you are not over-breathing and/or taking a tight breath.

Again, a very helpful Video. Thanks for all your efforts!❤ Question: in a different Video you say, not to do chest breathing. One shouldn t Move the chest. Here in this Video you say, If i understand correctly- one can move the chest and also should Move flanks/chestribs. It s a point i don’t get! I can t Move my flanks without slightly Moving/breathing into chest (my shoulders dont Go up though). Also, If i only relax tummy while inhaling i ve got a feeling, i do Not getting enough Air (approx. Every 4-5 breath) and ripcage/flanks dont open. I Know one doesnt Need so much air for singing but i have this as a normal need. I Hope you can follow my explaination 😮 So i would be Great to know how to do it Right! It would be Great to see the bodywork you do while singing. And is it right Not to Give Impulses while singing a Phrase (why do teachers always say to Give more Power on the high Note in the phrase? If i do that i can see my Upper stomach giving an Impulse). So i try to practise to keep my tummy out. So your exercise is Not for illustrative purpose to Give Impulses while singing or? Last Question: as a tip you said to imagine blowing up a ballon First easy than stronger. But If a Blow up a difficult ballon i feel locked up?! Is it correct to vary the strenth of Supporting muscles within a song or Even phrase? Or ist that wrong because it is opposite of just holding breath flexible (no pushing or pulling) but blowing a balloon is slighly pushing (for me atleast😢) Yours Natalie

[@Victoria-Victorious]

Okay, so you are asking about 2 different things. The first is inhalation, second is breath support (or controlled exhalation). Here are 3 videos that should help answer your questions: 1) Breathing Inhalation for Singing - Explained SIMPLY, CLEARLY, CORRECTLY! kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6vVeYZ3e7tge68 2) Supporting the Voice (Breath Support) - CLEARLY & CORRECTLY explained - FINALLY! (VIDEO #12) - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYOVaGpoiaylndE (and if the thicker balloon exercise makes you tight, then just stick to the easy and moderate balloon). 3) How to Improve Breath Support for Singing - APPLY IT CORRECTLY! kzbin.info/www/bejne/a56QZp6NbZyDla8

what does locking mean though?

It means that your abs are too tight which then locks up the breath followed the throat, as demonstrated in this video.

[@naithonjuarez7414]

@@Victoria-Victorious thanks for replying, you're videos are really helpful

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

Victoria, As a gigging singer, this has to be one of the most frustrating elements to deal with. It just seems like some of my Rock songs require not a lock or a tightening, but more of a vertical thrust downward. It's as if the diaphragm was a piston dropping and staying down for the duration of the belted note. When I thrust downward, I feel free up top. It's physically demanding. Rock songs that are punchy or "stacatto-ish" seem to require this. Your thoughts? Thank you!

[@Victoria-Victorious]

Sure, for the big money notes, dramatic singing (whether it be rock, pop, opera or any style), and high belting, it takes firmer support, BUT you would not sing an entire 4-5 minute song that way or else the song would get boring as in too intense, overkill), plus it is hard on the voice. Do that in selected places in your songs.

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

@@Victoria-Victorious Thank you so much. I needed to hear that.

[@carlruss7003]

This is so informative!! Just to be clear, when we change from the "Elastic Pulse" to singing the song not pulsing, are you still pulsing your abs? or are you holding it in at a light tenseness? also! how do you know how far to support without turning into locking?

Try to limit how much you clear your throat and if you have to clear your throat when singing, do so gently. Drink more water. Check your technique to see if throat tension is causing this mucous.
