http://www.powertosing.com/ www.powertosing.com/bini; How to Gain Confidence Singing for Other People How to sing with power in your voice begins with having an ideal balance between the vocal cords and the air from your lungs. But even if you get the balance perfect you must have the right psychology...the mental-emotional part. So every time you open your mouth to sing, the power in your voice is there waiting to be heard. Suppose you have done the vocal exercises to get a good balance between the vocal cords and the air from your lungs. During your voice lesson you feel what it’s like to get the cords together firmly. No longer do you have: People who can’t hear you Excessive breathiness Running out of air No power No vocal presence Falsetto Weak Chest voice Limits to what you can sing You’re excited. Your teacher’s excited. You’ve figured it out! You come back for your next lesson, your teacher is excited to hear your progress and it’s…. like you’ve never been there before. You are starting all over again. The vocal cords are not coming firmly together. Perhaps you can do it really well during the exercises, but when you start singing, the vocal cords don’t come together like they did in the exercises. Why? I think there are two major reasons. You haven’t listened to your lesson and practiced it each day. Therefore, it hasn’t become muscle memory. You revert to the way you’ve always done it. You did practice, but this new way of doing things feels very hard. You are making much more sound than you’ve ever made but you’re not really comfortable with it. It seems too loud, too strong, too big. You can easily fix reason number one. Listening to and practicing your lesson repeatedly will help create muscle memory so it becomes the way you sing without thinking about it. But this second reason is what trips up so many of us singers. 02:20 ==================== ==================== 03:04 Reserved and shy Soft spoken Filled with worry Never went first Never volunteered Afraid of failing Afraid of succeeding Never taking a chance Never wanted to be up in front of people Never wanted to be on stage front and center However, now you learn to get your vocal cords together and start to experience balance, power and growing volume in your voice, but you’re frightened by it, emotionally you can’t accept it. You just can’t let yourself be powerful. This is where singing and life are the same. We all have instances where we must change something inside us to get what we want. Here are a few ideas to help a shy person stand up front and center and command the stage and enthrall an audience. Listen to and practice your voice lesson. When you start making real progress with your voice your confidence goes up fast. Practice is important. 04:06 ==================== ==================== 04:55 My Light Chest-No Chest vocal type singers progress quickly when they get their vocal cords together and find the power inside to let themselves be fabulous!
