It’s Summer, Songbirds!
There are new warmups attached below. The theme of this month is “Don’t get used to it.” Many of the exercises will be brand new for the most of you, focusing on placement, melodic retention, and transitions! The warmups are going to challenge you in the most strategic way. My advice is to take them at your own pace and remember to have fun. Enjoying your individual, vocal journey is the key to growth.
If you have any questions, we can review them during your session.
Proud of each and everyone of you. Thank you for trusting me as your coach and with your valuable time -Violet
