Will often sing flat
- Depressed and inflexible soft palate
- Limited legato
- May seem lazy (they aren’t)
- Kyphotic posture
- Lack of inhalation strength
- Lack of support
- Acting: often fear of accessing character
- Lack of overtones
- Lack of spin
- Rigidity in upper RA
- Hypo-active pelvic floor
- Vocal placement too far back
- Vocal placement in throat
- Weak SBL (fascial surface back line)
Help includes:
👉 Backbends, Backbends, and more Backbends - supported and active.
👉 Active breathwork
👉 Vocal flexibility exercises
👉 Point out small victories
👉 Deep Core strengthening
👉 Access and energize SBL fascia
👉 Lots of head register vocalises
👉 Semi-occluded vocal exercises (the buzzing feeling is therapeutic)
👉 Physical movement while learning repertoire (lower body stabilizing for resilience, upper body energizing for emotional lift)
👉 Requires faster cycling through vocal/physical/breath exercises than usual - don’t give the student a chance to drop into the past - keep them in the present moment
👉 Joy of Singing > Perfection

These lists are also by no means exhaustive... and everyone is different. This series offers experiential general patterning.
