I’ve never had a vocal teacher but if I walked into my first vocal lesson and had Victoria as my teacher, I’d know that I’ll be in good hands within the first 5 minutes.
Awww, thank you for your sweet post!
H
It would be nice to see a animated diagram of whats going on inside while singing to help learn
I always hated hearing popular singers straining while singing even before I knew anything about it. They have beautiful voices so no need for all that pressure. Very helpful video!!
Thank you for your post!
One of the best channels when it comes to singing.
Thank you! I truly appreciate your comment!
@@Victoria-Victorious my pleasure I’m always interested in seeing how other people approach singing and I’m constantly impressed by your versatility and ability to share your knowledge 🥳🥳🥳
I totally agree. I have watched tons of videos from different voice teachers.Some are okay or even good but I figured that Victoria is the best🎤♥️
@@birgithade5022 yes, yes, yes.... she gave me confidence and-- she gets right to the point in a serious but very kind way... it's not a bunch of 'fluff' ....🏆
Your thumbnails are so iconic, they literally put me in the best mood. And then there's the skillful professional of course
Awwww, thank you, Ro Pi!
This was amazing. I've been singing with tensed abs for forever, and I didn't realize that was the root of the majority of my vocal strain. Thank you for saving my voice!
This is my first video I’ve seen on this channel and I just want to say that I deeply appreciate her teaching style. She’s firm and straightforward without being hyper critical and making the student feel like they aren’t good enough. She recognises that everyone starts somewhere and wants to help you reach your full potential with skill and technique. I’ve been singing for most of my life and when I started to develop chronic illnesses I lost so much vocal control. I now struggle to not push and I feel like I never reach where I was at in the past. It makes me incredibly self conscious but I feel very supported right now.
You’re a great teacher ! 👍
Best channel ever with comprehensive explanation 👍✌️
Thank goodness for this video! Came just when I needed it
I am your new subscriber! Thank you for sharing such wonderful techniques‼️🥳
I love how passionate you are about teaching to sing correctly and the different strategies! Also, I love your voice.. it is very soothing and relaxing ♥️
I've always thought of my pushing as limited to tightness in the larynx or throat. This video gave me a few things to think about beyond that. Good video. Thank you.
I am always happy to share new insight!
I have an audition in a month and this helped so much!! Tysm you got a new sub!

Oh, that is so kind of you to post! Thank you!
@@Victoria-Victorious It's true!
You are the best! ^.^
Thank you so much! I appreciate it!
Hello, Victoria. Im having a quite big problem. Im diagnosed with muscle tension dysphonia. Can you make a video about muscle tention dysphonia and how to get over it. I ve been admiring you and your talant since you started the channel. Thank you for being there for us!
Hello! Have you watched the videos in my playlist Throat, Tongue, Jaw & Neck Tension in Singing - Free up Your Voice! ua-cam.com/play/PLaWjWxiTysDDDSGygoVWRk_IfZeFI71aj.html ? If you need further help, I recommend seeing a speech pathologist/ vocal therapist who works with the singing voice.
Can I ever relate.
Great service you are doing 🎶🌺🇮🇳
Thank you! So nice of you to post!
As well very informative video!
Would please do a vid about dynamics in singing?
Yes, I have lots of videos on how to sing loudly as well as quietly in this playlist: Better Singing Tone! ua-cam.com/play/PLaWjWxiTysDDB0K_J9FKiiwSxcV65xjxh.html. As far as how to apply to a song, see this playlist: How to Sing a Song Professionally - BRING YOUR SONGS TO LIFE! ua-cam.com/play/PLaWjWxiTysDCcdNsPrBOVUAdTbsTRx6j9.html
Yo the best
This is such a great video. I'm working on nuance now. I can get control over during my practice but, Once I go to sing songs, I start getting to loud and blowing out my voice for the next and part of the 2nd day. That's after, warming up good and feeling good through the vocalizing, then, singing through a set of 8 songs twice. The singing felt good while doing it but, those ghosts of voices past crept in and I got too loud... Then, I have trouble getting good vocal closure for those 2 days after. This is day 2 and I'm still struggling. I also have rehearsal tonight...
Please be careful. In your practice, make the song into an exercise so that you learn how to apply the technique. Also work on strength and power. I have videos on that. Another thing, why not tell your band members that you need to sing 1/2 voice for some rehearsals if your voice is tired? Definitely do not sing if hoarse.
@@Victoria-Victorious Thank you so much for the reply! I have gotten them to turn way down as a general rule and I have started using headphones as my monitor. I also believe I need to get more used to the microphone and use it to amplify my voice and stop pushing! I was a HUGE yeller and pusher and I'm reeling that in. Old habits die hard I guess. I really love your attitude toward your art. I can almost picture smacking me in the head! LOL I'm definitely a fan! I'm going to search your videos on strength and power! Thank you for all that you do!!
Great, great, great, Victoria!! I have one question. Is it ok to sing while pregnancy, any month? Million thanks for each video, Victoria!!
Does your audio program download? In what file format? MP4? I want to play it while commuting so I can practice.
No, it is not downloadable. They are MP3 files. You log into the site.
I have tension and it will not really go away it seems to be under my jaw , one thing I’ve noticed is when I yawn it releases the stress quite a bit , what am I doing wrong ? Love your videos thanks.
It sounds like it could be your tongue. Watch my video on The Unruly Tongue.
Hello Victoria! I am a beginner and I wanted to ask you that is ear training something that I should start from the very beginning or is it something we do after sometimes? And also is it necessary that I do the vocal exercises while playing the notes or scales on piano? Bcz I actually don't know much about playing different scales nor can I tell which note I am singing on😭 . For example when you say to glide on a 5th , I can't tell if I am on the right notes, whatever feels good I do it! Can you help me with this too😭
If you are able to sing in tune, then put the focus on your voice. No need to learn how to play the notes. Most of the exercises that I do are in my vocal exercise program, along with piano accompaniment. www.healthyvocaltechnique.com/order-victorias-victorious-vocal-exercise-program/
@@Victoria-Victorious mam I am an absolute beginner and I got seriously no idea if I am singing on tune, or on the right pitch, I just sing whatever feels good😭
Hi Victoria!
It’s me kelz!
What is the best way to heal your voice after a little fatigue:(
Besides resting your voice, I do discuss some things to do if you start to feel tired while singing here: Vocal Fatigue Singing - GETTING TIRED FROM SINGING? ua-cam.com/video/HIB9Nx2wEIE/v-deo.html
Thank you mam ,,yan po ang problema ko mam pkiramdam ko ang bigat bigat ng nasa leeg ko po lalo na kung high notes na po,,
Tingnan muna ang aking playlist sa masikip na lalamunan. Kapag handa ka na, maaari kang magpatuloy sa playlist sa mataas na tala. (Hope this is correct. I used google translate to write this).
@@Victoria-Victorious thank you so much mam
Can we expand our chest voice range ?
Sure! Learn how to thin it out as you ascend in pitch. See my playlist and focus on chest mix: Mixed Voice Made Easy! ua-cam.com/play/PLaWjWxiTysDCCsBgnhWjfRRAWIPflxZp1.html
I try and i try but i still don't know how to do a mixed voice TT
See my playlist on Mixed Voice.
should i always keep the lower abs support the same???
like when i sing the g3 note vs g4 note
or should i flex more when hitting g4?
my lower abs,the muscle just below my navel tends to squeeze more as i hold the high note.is this the correct sensation as i go higher the pitch maam??
This video should answer your questions: Supporting the Voice (Breath Support) - WHY, WHEN, HOW MUCH? ua-cam.com/video/b27MFq1f0VM/v-deo.html. Make sure you are not locking your abs too. Watch my videos on high notes too.
are you near nyc? available for lessons?
Thank you for your note. I am in California. As stated on my website, my private studio is full and I am not adding to the wait list. Your other options are:
1. participating in my group classes for members of my audio exercise training program www.healthyvocaltechnique.com/group-classes/ (need to become a VVVEP member first www.healthyvocaltechnique.com/order-victorias-victorious-vocal-exercise-program/) or

Have fun with your singing!
After singing, I feel that my throat burns or hurts. I think I'm using my throat to sing and not diaphragm. But how do I stop this? :(
(If you've a video on it, please provide me the link.)
See my playlist: Throat, Tongue, Jaw & Neck Tension in Singing - Free up Your Voice! ua-cam.com/play/PLaWjWxiTysDDDSGygoVWRk_IfZeFI71aj.html
Dear teacher , i started to exercises cuz i was losing my voice ( I'm alone so I don't talk at all for weeks ) im getting better at talking but i began to yawn all the time and can't even finish it , it kinda hurt
Stop singing if it hurts. I recommend seeing an ENT dr to examine your vocal folds. When you are better, start with my playlist for Beginning Singers.
hwo do we "free up" our voices?
The answer is good technique and eliminating tension that gets in the way of your singing. You can start with my Beginner's Playlist: Beginner Singing Lessons - FOLLOW THESE VIDEOS! ua-cam.com/play/PLaWjWxiTysDBD7MGUWCSdC4yhLzxVsEdW.html
@@Victoria-Victorious thank you
HOW do I get my larynx low?
Generally with more yawn in the back of the throat. See my videos on the Open Throat and also on the Larynx.
1st again!! 🎉And it's also my problem. My throat always gets hurt as I push. 😥
Hope this video helps you!
even when i try to take a deep breath ,my throat,my stomach, my shoulders ...all my body is in pain
I felt this, thought i am having hypertension already
7:46 when you enter a haunted house in a cartoon
Interesting that you mention singing too loud. I sing too soft, I do a lot of low notes and sound breathy with high notes.
I have lots of videos on this. See my playlists on the Weak Voice and also on the Breathy Voice. Also see my playlist on Strengthening Head Voice!
@@Victoria-Victorious will do!!
i suggest you a "How to Age without Botox" video :D
I am SO touched by your kind comment! I hope it helped you have a better day!!
