WHY YOU WANT TO GROW AN EMBODIED VOICE & MOVEMENT PRACTICE?
It might seem obvious or maybe you have no clue at all why nurturing a daily embodied practice is crucial to your success as a person and as an artist. (Hint: Things which nurture you as a person, nurture you to also be an empowered artist:). If you don’t already have a daily practice with your voice, here are some reasons why it is SO valuable!
Consistent practices are calming for the nervous system. Just like children we all crave some thing we can depend on. Committing to building or continuing to show up for your music practice on a regular basis is a REAL way to take the edge off and build some feel good endorphins nowadays.
Warming up your voice and body regularly will improve your pitch so that you can focus on other things like styling and interpretation while singing/performing.
In order to hit those high notes without straining you need regular warm-ups to help you get there with ease. Ideally these warm-ups will be specifically catered to your vocal needs.
Consistency will help improve your vocal tone and the clarity of you vowels which will in turn help your pitch when you are in the midst of recording, performing or auditioning.
Daily practices bring insight that you can’t get in a one shot practice session. It’s the regular return to a movement/vocalization that deepens self awareness and allows you to better understand your voice, your VOCAL HEALTH and your artistic impulses so that you can own your voice.
