My biggest fear is spending hours doing something wrong. I really struggle to relate the descriptions teachers give to my own body. I never seem to feel the tension that I supposedly have. My teacher looks at my neck and can tell but I can never feel it. It's so frustrating.

RIGHT... Only YOU can know and declare what is right and wrong with your OWN BODY. The best thing you can do for your voice is ignore teachers and learn how to learn about your own body :)

I'm just about to start getting into singing but from weightlifting: There is a thing called Mind-Muscle-Connection: As you build your muscles you are able to fine tune your movements so you can do the simple excercises with better form and stability, and continue to more complex excercises that require greater coordination. And since singing is also all about fine tuned muscle control, you might be able to take concepts from weightlifting and apply them to singing. Learn how your body reacts to the simple excercises and get to know the "feel" of doing them correctly. I was a fucking spastic when I started lifting and martial arts and now I can pick up new movements and excercises pretty fast. Just 2 cents from someone just about to start lawl

My old vocal coach told me this: stand with your back and head against the wall and see if you can still sing. Yes you need to focus a lot harder on support but this’ll show you if you have to “fold” your body to hit notes. Sorry that this is being replied 2 years later lol

I have to tell you - Despite the fact that this video is like listening to fingers on a chalkboard, I kept turning it off and then coming back to it saying "maybe he's onto something here". I do voice-overs and also sing in my church praise team and over the years my throat has gotten worse and worse and worse and I have such a hard time doing my voice-overs and do every vocal exercise known to man, I've gone to vocal therapy and had scopes down my throat 3 times!!! NOTHING helps and since the "pros" haven't helped me, I've been trying on my own to figure things out - then this incredibly annoying video comes to my thread and as I said I kept turning it off, but then I think the Lord kept telling me - Go back to it - and do you know!!!! THIS is EXACTLY what I needed to know! Truly - I am getting through my voice-over work with so much less vocal stress and tightness today. My throat keeps wanting to revert back to my bad habit of tightening but this is only day one and only a couple hours in, so going to relearn how to speak and use my voice. I think the more I was trying to loosen my throat up the more I was focusing on my throat and the tighter it was getting!!!!! Anyway - I thank you from the bottom of my larynx for this video!!! This is helping me so much!!!! I am thinking of my face and nose instead of my throat and wow! Makes my voice sound sooo much better!!!! Thank you and God bless you!

I just had a septuplasty last month because my nasal airways were 85% obstructed and now I’ve been dealing with two issues; one being tension after recovery and two being that, where I had little to no “ping” or facial resonance before without being really intentional about it, I now find I have too much and my voice has this like, “tinny” quality when recorded. It’s a process, and this video always helps. 😊

Chris, I think you just saved me!! I've been spending a lot of time getting my technique right but one thing that's always been killing me is my throat tightening up, and my voice has gradually been more dull with time. But now I've realized all I needed was to get more "ring" or resonance at the back of my sinuses with that "ng" sound. Focusing on that has reduced my throat tension drastically, not to mention added so much of that richness back to my voice... it's made a night and day difference in literally 1 practice session! Who knows how much improvement I'll see in a month? Thank you for this video.

My favorite lesson from Chris, is how to use the abs in singing. It has changed every song I've ever sung, and it's highlighted how I was doing it on my best songs even before I knew about it. Before I sing now I have a little talk with my core, and say "are we ready?" Thanks Chris.

Hey Chris! I want to thank you for everything you've done. I haven't done any serious singing in a couple years, but practicing some of your techniques from these videos let me be able to start doing things I didn't even dream of when I was still in my "prime". It doesn't sound pretty yet, but it'll get there. My range and belting capabilities are slowly coming back to me, and you've made it a much easier climb than if I were on my own. And I've also been able to start discovering my mixed voice as well as grit. Things I never thought I would ever be able to discover properly. Like I said though, it doesn't sound good yet. But the fact that I have been making some pretty nice progress thanks to your videos warrants a comment from me. So, thank you. I did go and sign up for your free course just now to have some of the basics in a reviewable format. Sometimes we just forget the basics when trying new things, so I hope that'll help.

I'll be eager to try this. For context, I'm learning trombone, and have heard from others describe that playing trombone is a lot like singing. To the point that it is common for trombone students to be assigned vocal parts as exercises. So while the syllables of focus are different for us (more of T-Ohm sound), this same concept applies in trying to minimize throat tension. Long story short, this is good stuff to think about as I try to break away from bad habits that create throat tension and inhibit my air flow/breath. Thank you for making this free.

Such a helpful vid! One thing that would be a great video (not sure if you've covered it) is covering/helping a weird unconscious tension when just about to track/record a vox part. Ex: Hit record a measure or two early to ready myself in front of the mic (recording at home alone), sing a couple of wonderfully relaxed notes just prior to the moment the real singing begins, feeling/sounding great and take a nice full relaxed breath - and BAM, tension as soon as you open your mouth and ruin the whole take. Knowing how to fix that would help A LOT! I've tried every iteration with no success (don't do any relaxing sounds before the first note, sing the first note/word relaxed before the real note and just hold it until the beat starts and let it out, etc). BTW: anyone ever tell you that you sound a little like Ryan Seacrest? haha It just hit me with this video and now can't get it out of my head LOL

Great lesson! I think my issue is from embarrassment mostly. I've never really sung, but have always wanted to. I've NEVER understood how people in bands, etc....just start singing! It's beyond my reasoning, because my voice is kinda Ethel Merman-y rather than Ann Wilson-y, so I'm always nervous and my throat clenches up. I can hold a tune, but only when singing softly. And I live in an apt. so...singing loudly is not so appreciated by my neighbors. 🙄 I may need to start taking a little drive now and then to let my voice out!

Those were some real "Freestyla" type of sounds haha! Other struggles I have and would love to see your take on this, is the oversqueeze syndrom. In a nutshell, this is not only a neck tension problem but an inner muscle problem where the vocal chords have to learn to make smoother motions. The vocal cords themself coordinate and they do what they should be doing (being connected), but their motion is like taking a hammer to a glass it is not refined which results in an oversqueeze type of sound the chords are basically grinding on each other. I find that to compensate for that, As I go higher in my mix I tend to focus the resonance in the phyrangal area more, which helps to reduce the oversqueeze but I want to learn to keep the resonance in the mouth while still be able to sing freely in mix voice. Love to hear your comments or a deeper video on that Chris ✌ Take care R.

You know, I see this all of the time and try to explain to people how to relax their throat. This seems like an excellent exercise to achieve it. Great work, Chris!

Thanks! That was so helpfull for me right now. I just interrupted a recording session after not having sung for over a month. I couldn't open up my vowls and felt tense all the time. This exercise made me reflect on that issue very well. I gonna dive intoe more of your exercises right now. :)

Great stuff, Chris! This feels like a helpful exercise to get rid of throat tension. As for videos studying rock singers, would love to see some old school classic voices analyzed - John Lennon and Paul McCartney, for example, who could sing blistering rock when they chose to. Also, Brad Delp of Boston and Lou Graham of Foreigner, two guys who can can sing crazy high notes and make it sound effortless. What can us mere mortals learn from how these guys sing? Thanks, Chris!

I would add something more... There are also TMJ issues that creates great tensions in the throat (i am struggling with it but i keep training safely until one day i'll be ok) and another point that can triggers tension in the throat'muscles is the neck... A disalignment of the first vertebraes C1 and C2 (wich i am expieriencing too)...

I absolutely agree with his choice not to shy away from comparing things to pooping 💩 Oh & the eyebrow thing I totally get that 👌😂 I do want to say a lot of his content covers stuff I had been self teaching on and off for over a decade & that hit me hard, I really want to recommend to anyone stopping by to take this very seriously. It’s a weird vibe but you can see the importance of adjusting to that, but I digress. It’s crazy to hear terms for this stuff & relating to the vocal journey Wish I could put my money where my mouth is but I’m not a great producer & a mediocre instrumentalist at best. Music is a hobby to me I just wanted to say this is relatable content.
