To be an awesome singer you need to practice regularly, try this video.
• Daily singing exercise...
Your voice is a muscle and if you're serious about wanting to learn to sing well then you need to strengthen that muscle. I can speak from experience, as someone who couldn't belt, twang, sing more than an octave and a bit and had massive pitching issues to someone who has been singing professionally for the last 10 years. I did at least 15 minutes exercising a day as well as singing through lots of material and within six months my voice made an incredible change. You can too.

The guy in the blue tshirt has got a good voice
So does girl in the red
They both do!!!
ahh i haven't been here in five months, it feels like coming home 😭❤
Hey, are you also reading through comments while doing vocal warm-ups?
Let me give you something to read:
Tips for better singing:
- Stretch your tongue and your chest.
- Do not drink milk/eat anything with milk in it [ Ice cream etc... ] 24hr before singing.
'cause it's gonna clog your throat which will make it harder for you to sing.
- Use vocal fry and vocal riff and runs. Not only it sounds better, but it also makes you sound like a professional
- BE CONFIDENT flat singing voice and cracks are mostly 'cause of insecure singers who are afraid of anyone hearing them.
Tips for soundproofing.
If you're afraid of anyone hearing you, make your room more soundproof.
- [ FOR THE WARM-UP / EXERCISES ONLY ] Put your hand above your mouth so your voice can get warmed up while doing the vocal warm-up, it won't make much of a sound.
- Put carpets on the floor
- Use thick blankets and put them on the door. They should cover the door.
- Put a lot of furniture in your room, so the vibrations don't go any further.
- Put thick blankets over your head. It sounds silly but hey! if you're alone why not?
These tips help you make your room more soundproof. The vibrations of your singing voice won't go any further if you use one of these techniques listed above. It won't go any further 'cause the vibration will lose energy over these elements.
I just drink I huge cup of milk 😭
@@celinemarenco the worst thing you can do it's clogging up your voice you might sound normal when you sing but milk is really bad for your singing voice okay sucks to suck i would say sorry kid
@@opfer1555 i didn't knew that 😿
thank you so much!!
Everything is right but about vocal fry and runs that’s an opinion!! You do not need to do riffs and vocal fry to sound like a good singer and especially in Musical Theatre (this video I’m guessing is on topic of MT) they usually say to not use them unless it’s a stylistic thing because it will take away from the feeling of song and character and over complicate the song. Basically it becomes more about how you sound than the meaning of the song. Don’t get into the habit of doing too many vocal gymnastics anyway that’s the difference between a good singer and a bad singer, being able to know when less is more and when to go for it!! Tbh the vocal fry thing can make you sound slightly average unless it’s a natural thing and you pick the right places!! Otherwise you’ll just sound like you’re trying to impersonate a pop singer!! Hope this doesn’t sound abrupt, the best thing you can do is train your voice as relaxed as possible and find YOUR voice not an interpretation of someone else’s, if vocal fry and riffs are what you do best then that’s great, just learn when to do it and not to, they are like sprinkles, a little is delicious but to many is too much!! If riffing isn’t your thing, keep practising the riffs but it’s so great to be able to sing simple and not overload the song and you will impress more people on a panel in auditions I PROMISE!! *Feel before you squeal*

Singers, still here in 2023?
I use this every day! Love it and 2 other 5 minute warmup videos of hers! An hours worth if I watch each one twice! 😂❤
Yup!!😂🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Definitely! ❤
Been doing this everyday since 2022 ❤
I use it all the time 😂
I just wanted to thank you Verba, I have been practicing daily for about a few weeks and I can feel the changing in my voice already. I have a stronger fuller more open sound. My confidence in reaching the higher range has increased. All this in just the first few weeks. God bless you. I have forwarded the links to my choir members and asked them to do them at 3 times per week.
+msshay622 That's wonderful! That's exactly what we hope for. I'm so pleased that you've found our videos helpful. And thank you for letting us know. It means a lot! We love to hear success stories! Let us know how you're getting on in another few weeks!
@@VerbaVocal Hello! Have you stopped making these videos?
The staccato Ha's reminds me of robbers breaking into a bank. Love it.
+Sarah Tummon 😂 Yeah I can see what you mean!!
I had to restart cause i laughed so hard at this 😂😂😂
@@VerbaVocal your channel has impressed looking forward to taking up an online course would be interested you have something in you that's really you do less talking your work speaks more for the last ten years looking for a proper vocal instructor can I get lessons from you foscapeters@gmail.com

i've been doing a variety of your vocal exercises about a year now and my voice has. improved. A. LOT!! your videos have become a part of my daily routine and if i miss one day it's like a lost day! ahaha x
i remember how unsatisfied i was with my weak voice before and now i am able to belt out a song, if i like to. i never thought that would be possible.
i'm SO very grateful for you sharing these exercises with us. thank you SO much, honestly!!! ♡♡♡ x
Thank you so much for sharing you story. It really means so much to us that these videos are helping people.
comments like this give me hope for my voice 😂

The piano player is doing the most work. Haha. Thanks for this awesome vocal workout!
Finally! I found a warmup with a good piano accompaniment. Most UA-cam warmup videos just play the voice part along with the singer.
Also love the modulations between keys via the “ti-do-re” of the next key (with V chord underneath the melodic line) Much better than just playing the chord of the next note.
Is there a place I can find sheet music for the accompaniment for these Warm-Ups?
As a band on tour, we use your videos every day before shows to prepare, and they are the best we've found. Especially love this one and the way you quickly move through the different exercises. Thank you so much for providing quality and fun vocal warm ups, we're so grateful!
That is amazing, glad this is proving useful to you :)
Band of Lovers Verba is the way 👍🏾
It would be so good if you made another pro vocal exercises like this😊😊
Would love to see more with the singer exercising with you.
Totally agree especially me being male also + looks like a great guy
I always feel like a supar villain while doing the #4 exercise
I love these two...he’s always so bright....she is sparkling
Which two, it's three of them
This routine has made my voice feel better every single time I've used it, and I've done over 50 times at this point. Here's to another 50!
Beautiful practise routine with an infectious smile.
YOUR BYE FAR THE BEST VOCAL COACH ON UA-cam,❤️
*you're
By far
Hello Anna et al. This is an update. Since starting with Verba in mid July 2017, I just CANNOT believe how many strides I have made. Through the tests, I found I was Mezzo as I have mentioned before, but my range in both registers have extended SO MUCH now, that I have even "broken into" light opera! I love to sing Songbirds, O Mio Babbino Caro, Ave Maria. Not sure of all the meanings, being in latin, but I get the gist! I just cannot thank you enough. I have reached heights I would never have believed possible, and singing, along with daily practices, is like a drug for me now. I have cut down on the caffeine, and I never drink alcohol, but I always have a mug of warm lemon and honey water by me. If you ever want to use my name for recommendations, I wouldn't be able to say enough good about you all. Kindest regards. xx
This is an amazing warm up! 1. Makes me realize how much work my voice needs (yikes), but 2. Really works, actually follows the rule of starting in a small and comfortable range and stretching outwards (unlike a lot of warmups, which seem to just go straight to the ends of the ranges). My voice actually feels warmed up after this. Thank you so much!
Hey, Verba, my name is Baaba I've been using this vocal exercises for like 3 years now and my voice has dramatically changed. Thank you so much, for this. you instilled in me confidence that I couldn't have gotten from anywhere. God bless you xx
I am literally enjoying ah’s!
This is my new favorite warmup. It's fun to do and the piano is so nice, which makes it feel more melodic and interesting to do. I appreciate your videos, thank you :)
We are glad that you find them helpful. Lots more videos to come. :) If you sing then maybe consider entering the Feedback giveaway we are running at the moment. It is a chance to spotlight your channel in one of our videos. ua-cam.com/video/1ZyBISut3Ms/v-deo.html
+michelleheafy Thank you! 😀
I love this video so much!!! More please!!! One warm up video from Verba for every day of the week would be grand because you've got the best ones on UA-cam. I've searched, and u rule!
Deal. Gimme some time to put them together but that is a great suggestion. Thanks
Nehemiah Williams agreed!! I'm a singer in Queensland Australia (originally from the UK) and I love these verba warm ups. Thanks Anna, I've learnt so much from you x
Nehemiah Williams ✌
Absolutely true, they're the best ones on UA-cam! And what about the poor French warm-ups (I'm French), no wonder there are so few good pop singers around here in France…
Nehemiah Williams. I know it is a year ago that you posted your comments, and I also love this particular video, but there is another one headed "Quick 5 minute singing warm up", marked up as 9.53 minutes on the picture. If you don't know this one, you might like to try it as I think it is a kind of "mini west end warm up".
You guys are amazing!
There's a good feeling in the air every time I'm listening to you; you offer me joy through all these videos! And more than that, you are a professionist! You're a very good and talented teacher! I like your voice very much and also, the way you teach us all - it's just extraordinary!
Thank you for all this!
You are welcome :)

Did I tell you how much I love this video exercise? Gosh, it's got some great stuff, some challenging stuff, some stuff that sounds beautiful, and some stuff that will improve my breathing and vocal fluidity. Thank you!
First time on this warm up and found it difficult to memorize & execute all the melodies but with repetition it should be fine :) Thankyou, as you are so good at what you do as a teacher, very professional but non-intimidating.
+MenzMusic Thank you. Yes they are quite tricky at times, but keep doing them and you'll find them much easier to pick up.
I'm in the same situation XD
Hey, Anna, Mark and Nathaniel. Another thing I love about this particular video - that is the fact that there is no stopping between the exercises. Because it is continuous, it MAKES you breathe properly, and also gives you that vital energy required. I always like to pair this video up with the "Switching between chest and head voice". Awesome as usual. Kindest regards to you all xx
I'm here Sept 2019!
i love your vocal trainings, thank you for that very wonderful opportunity!!!
This favorite vocal warmup!
I love the ha ha has!!
Lol😂

I find it too hard
@@riyashina5435 I thought so but once I kept practicing it, it became easier

I look forward to using your lesson and warm up exercises on most days. Thank you!
Great channel! Very useful warmups :- ) didn't know about some (like the VVVVVs). Thank you.

This should be required learning for church singing.
We have to do this in Musical Theater- it should so be required for Church Choir tho
I do these everyday. Mood always elevates... songs always sound better.. etc.. etc .. and so forth!
+アダムスエルア That’s great! That’s what singing is all about, after all!
I used this video to warm up every night that I played the Fairy Godmother in R&H's Cinderella! Thank you for keeping me going!
Go Verba! I've done this routine severally :D Thanks Mark and Nate too!
Thank You for giving so many of us hope, Joy and something positive to look forward

Thx
Hi Anna and Mark. This is where I have now reached, having used your site since mid July 2017 - I did a concert for our local Telethon charity event on the 14th October. There was just me providing the entertainment. It was an afternoon "do" and there was a celebration lunch. Anyway, I sang intermittently from 1pm to just after 5pm. I began with Musical Theatre songs, and later sang some easy listening "get up and go" songs, mostly 60s to early 70s. As people eventually started dispersing, my friend and "manager" as I have titled her (!) (she set it all up for me to sing) asked me to sing Phantom of the Opera as it is her favourite. I obliged of course. My voice held out even though I sang 12 songs in total but I suppose that was down to resting in between. When we arrived back home, my throat was absolutely fine, and I was only physically fatigued. So I think there is another well deserved THANK YOU due to both of you for getting me to the stage I am at. As usual, kindest regards xx
Don’t forget Nathaniel
@@levornspencer5752 I mentioned Nathaniel in my second comment on this lesson.
