I just did these with you, and my cat looked so concerned and then attacked my face. I don't think he likes vocal warmups. 😂 At least when I chastised him, my voice was warm!

Vanessa rocks!
1. Loosen up posture, wiggle shoulders, relax neck, shake out any anxiety, take deep belly breaths, and exhale with “shushing”.
2. Tongue trills, ascending and descending 5X each.
3. Humming, vibration is key, keep lips and jaws loose, ascending and descending 5X each.
4. Chant, meem, mime, mohm, moom. Transition from humming, practice until resonance is clear.
5. Pronounce, ma pa ta, annunciation is key here, 5X each.

I had to give a remote presentation to a large number of people today. It went great. Thank you for your help. I seriously needed your exercises. Working remotely, not talking to anyone for potentially days, makes presentations really difficult.

[reiloveable]

Thankyou so much Vanessa!
I love the way you speak as a woman; gentle and clear

[simlavares]

This is really practical! So timely for my upcoming interview! Thank you so much for this!

[bryceellis]

Underrated video!! Definitely sharing with my co worker. I think she’d love this video.

We are interns at a biotech company, and she’s the Personal Develop on the Intern and Co-op Association (ICA) looking forward to sharing with my team tomorrow

[tonyaslp]

Hello Vanessa! Thank you so much for this video! It has been helpful to many of my voice patients. Do you think you can do a video for a vocal cool-down for speakers? I get teachers, fitness coaches, preachers and many other professionals who don't exactly need their voice for singing, but have lost vocal function and it impacts their ability to do their jobs. A vocal cool-down video from you would be EXTRA reinforcing for my patients to hear it from somebody else too. Most of these individuals don't understand that warming up and cooling down is not just for singers.

[stabassam]

That was super helpful and also super fun. Just did these for a presentation yesterday and then decided to do them with my daughter today! The presentation went great and my daughter and I couldn’t help but laugh and smile the entire time we were doing it! ❤😂
