What it teaches

Your range is every note you can sing easily, low to high. Slide down and up, rest where it's easy, and see yours.

Easy, not extreme. Only as low and as high as feels easy

Light at the top. Quieter as you go up, never louder

Stop if it strains. Tightens, tickles or hurts: rest. Don't sing when hoarse or ill

What you sing

  1. Slide down on a soft "oo", rest on your lowest easy note, then come back up. Only as low as is easy.
  2. Now slide up, rest on your highest light note, quiet and easy, then come back down.

Singing safely

Voices that are still breaking should wait. Sing only as high and low as is easy, keep the top light and quiet, never drag a heavy sound up past your break, and stop if anything tightens, tickles or hurts.
