Singers who’ve been around the block a few times have usually heard it all when it comes to breath support. And for many of us, the instructions we’ve received from one teacher directly contradict those we’ve received from another!

• Should we push down and out, or pull up and in?

• Should we breathe in the front, or in the back?

• Should we take a nose breath, or a mouth breath?

• Should we use belly breathing, diaphragmatic breathing, or rib breathing? (And are these things actually different?)

But there’s one thing most singers agree on. Whatever breath support is, we should probably be doing more of it! Problem is, some of us couldn’t tell you exactly how…

This 45-minute vocal workout—delivered live, via Zoom—will explore:

• Five common myths about breath support. (You’re guaranteed to have heard most of these!)

• The flawed premise of each one

• The important kernel of truth each contains

Through vocal exercises, you will learn about inhalation, onset, and support (sometimes called appoggio)—the total body coordination that singers use to pace their outflow of air during sustained singing.
