Your kitty joining in the siren exercise with perfect pitch at 6:15 literally made my day Kathleen...😻😹🎶

I’m on tour right now and my voice has become tired from a lot of belting, this warm up has been PERFECT and in my performances my voice doesn’t sound tired!!!

[dianeshepherdlyricsoprano]

THIS IS JUST WHAT I NEEDED! I have rested my voice for a few days because it just didn't seem to be going places as much as I would want. After doing this warm up, it feels better and easier already. Lovely build up throughout the video, gently moving along and working up to a crescendo. Thank you enormously Kathleen, you're a GEM.

Im getting back into recording and touring after over 20 years off, this is great.

[wendyhill]

You have such a beautiful strong voice. Thank you so much for doing these videos.😊

I did this warmup and for the first time in forever I had fun singing! I could hit high notes again, and it felt great. I had a bad bout of laryngitis last November that has weakened my voice ever since. I had a couple of months of speech therapy, but while it helped my speaking voice, my singing voice didn't benefit as much. This warmup helped me feel less constricted and more able to move with my voice. I'm genuinely so happy right now, lol. Thank you!

[amywendell]

Just a note to say thank you. So grateful for this video. I had acute laryngitis and it's taking me a while to get my singing voice back. which stirred up a lot of anxiety in me! Reminded me of having a vocal nodule 20 years ago and a lot of fear came up, remembering how emotional it was to lose my singing voice for a long period of time. Watching you and being guided by your videos has felt reassuring and comforting. I'm already hearing some improvements with vocal quality and range. You have such a reassuring and fun presence, and I love your kitty cat too. You remind me of the singing version of Yoga with Adriene (and her sweet dog Benji), and that's a high compliment! Keep doing your thing, you rock.

The cat wants to help, it's Beautiful! Great video.

[KatianaSilkiss]

My first time finding your videos and I'm already in love with you Thanks for such great warmups!

[itsnicole]

I definitely think the cat is needed when doing this

[enricacunsolo]

Not a singer but an interpreter with a recovering voice loss. This feels so gentle, not only on my vocal chords but on my soul. I felt like wanting to cry almost after every exercise. I have a lot of trauma stored in my upper chest and throat. I hope my voice will become more and more powerful with time. Thank you for this!

[tarafoley]

You are the best! I cried so many tears loosing my voice to perimenopause! I was shocked - had no idea it was even a thing. I appreciate the most when you focus on the mid range because I am definitely loosing that range - while everything drops lower/ it’s changing and doesn’t know where to land. ❤thank you so much. Keep making videos always!

[shaynstubbs]

I think we should all do warm ups with the cat! ❤

[teriwalalce]

This is the perfect warmup for me. I've had lots of gigs in the last few months with my rock band. 10 shows this month! Your exercises have been amazing! Thanks so much! I am getting ready to record some original music too. I am so glad to have found your channel!

[giovanninino]

I shared a video of yours on Instagram and turns out one of my classmates from HS watches you too and we got to connect for a lil bit so thank you !!!

[debbiewheeler]

Just what I need. Very helpful. Thanks! (Love your cat 😀!)

[claribelcamero]

I am 59 years old, I used to sing a lot before 2010 but after two very bad colds I stopped singing regularly and lost the softness of the sound of my voice. This worsened with the two years of covid situation. I am enjoying going back to singing step by step, with your guidance, but I realize that I also need exercises aimed at strengthening the abdominal muscles in order to improve my performance. Since I haven't seen all your videos yet, can you point me to one that can help me?

[rog]

I love this one....as I joined Sweet Adeline later in life, and have to exercise my voice in a gentle way, yet effective way...thank you Kathleen! I love your kitties in your videos..

[veronicableackley]
