Last year when I was going to a speech therapist for my vocal chord spasms and other issues she had me try straw work using a cup of water, but this same technique. It was slight, but I could tell it was engaging my abdomen and breathing more in a good way. While I practiced at home, I noticed it was a similar technique as when I played flute years ago so I dug out my old flute and had some fun with it. It was a little more work, using memory also, but has helped with my singing quite a bit, too.

The part where you sang and put the straw back in and out of your mouth kinda sounded like a misquito flying past my ear. 😂😂 Also thanks for this! I was unaware of this vocal practice.

Additional tip: My mom (also a vocal coach) has her students put the end of the straw into a cup of water to make sure it is being used correctly. Bubbles =correct.

I don't know if this is a silly question, but does the place you bite down (your inner lips vs straw) affect the exercise?

Hello Victoria thanks you for everything ! I feel better fold closure and more stability in my voice but i sing really quietly after using straw is that normal ?
