Are you already familiar with singing techniques and ready for the next step? Great! Let’s build on your skills and refine your voice.

1. Making bubbles in water with a glass straw helps balance air pressure, reducing strain on your vocal cords. It improves breath control, relaxes your voice, and enhances resonance for clearer, more effortless singing.

2. Especially if you already have some experience, you know how important it is to warm up your voice properly. There are 1000s of exercises. Feel what works for you and try this jazz scale exercise. This is an exercise with which you not only train your flexibility but also your musical hearing. Warm up with different warm-up exercises until you really notice that your voice is ready for it.

3. Learn how to add different nuances to your voice while keeping it healthy and strong. Singing in falsetto creates a light, airy sound by using only the thin edges of your vocal cords. A breathy or whispery tone adds softness but requires good breath control to avoid vocal strain.

4. Tilting your larynx while singing helps you access higher notes with more ease and flexibility. This technique allows for a smoother vocal transition and a richer, more resonant sound.

5. Using twang adds sharpness and intensity to your voice, giving it a bold and edgy quality. It helps you project with more power and clarity while reducing vocal strain.

6. Belting is a powerful, chest-dominant singing technique that adds strength and intensity to your voice. It’s all about controlled energy—so engage your support, open up, and bring out your inner hooligan!

7. Good microphone technique helps you control your sound and avoid distortion or feedback. Adjust your distance and angle to balance volume, clarity, and dynamics while letting your voice shine.

8. You want to be able to judge how you sing that high note—whether it’s with power, softness, or a mix of both. Control and technique give you the freedom to shape your sound the way you want.

9. Auditioning is all about preparation—know your material inside out and showcase your strengths. Be aware of what you're auditioning for, adapt your performance accordingly, and bring confidence into the room.
