Finding the Best Posture for Singing Part 2

It’s part two of our chat with West End Musical Theatre performer, lead singer of a London Big Band, and Clinical Osteopath, Jennie Morton. Today Alexa Terry and Jennie Morton in Ep.150 will be picking up right where they left off talking about the importance of teachers finding their neutral for their own postural health in the teaching room.
BEST MOMENTS
‘The body never lies, you know, you can tell it perfectly’
‘Symptoms in the body are like a course correct, the body's going, you've deviated from your path, get back, get back’
‘Posture is body language. In every moment, you are speaking to people, even if you haven't opened your mouth’
‘Taking care of you is an act of generosity to everyone else’

"The BAST course has given me so much confidence to be able to share knowledge and understanding about the voice, as well as helping me to gain a greater understanding of what being a teacher actually entails.” Danny Gortler, UK
“The BAST course was exactly what I was looking for and has been a tremendous help, not only in giving me the tools and confidence to teach, but it has also helped my own singing! I’m now getting comments at my gigs that I’m singing better than ever. Win-win! I’m now a vocal nerd in the making!” Nat Ripepi, Aust
“The BAST course gave an incredibly thorough overview of effective, healthy methods of improving a student’s singing ability. I really enjoyed better understanding the mechanism of sound production, and learning how to assess and problem solve in a very responsible, appropriate and practical way!” Rändi Fay, USA
