Open Throat Singing Method - How It Really Works - Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy 4K

The title speaks for itself.

Most people, when they sing, constrict their throat as they ascend a scale or a passage.

The key to great singing is to train the throat to stay open when singing.

But what does that mean to "train the throat to stay open"?

When we speak, depending on if we're raising our voice or not, we have different levels of pressure from air phonation (or sound).

This gets amplified exponentially when we sing.

In this video, I discuss a series of exercises we can do to keep the throat open so as not to constrict air and choke off or pinch and squeeze in the throat when we sing.

This not only provides better clarity in the sound and purity in the voice, but also gives us much greater range for singing, as well as stamina and longevity.

So come along for our discussion on how to sing with an open throat.

Several things: I still have not found a vocal coach who is so versatile, who explains things so well, who still has such a great voice at his advanced (?) age. I love this guy! And the end of Dream On? Fabulous! So many bands should throw money at him to go on tour with them.

This free 27 minute video lesson on "open throat method" is worth more than any of the SLS singing lessons in the market. Thank you, Ken 🙏🙏🙏

I was NOT READY for such amazing vocals!!!♥️♥️♥️

[rodelinewilliams]

I am shocked at how good and high you can go with your voice. I am new here, just trying to learn to sing with an open throat. I recently began writing Christian songs, and I now trying to learn how to sing. I feel blessed to have found your videos.

Learn in Lower Laryngeal position - incredible air flow ! Keeping it here and moving up thru my chest into my head voice with my diaphragm supported. Keeping the throat open at all times. Clear, Clean and Powerful!
I’ve taken lessons off and on since I was 45. I almost captured my sound . Almost doesn’t count !! 4 years with one teacher, 2 years with another, and I still didn’t fully understand who I was as a singer.
Traveling around to other voice teachers. Feeling frustrated . I finally stopped singing . I haven’t practiced in years. I’ve never been able to sing free!! When I do sing the same song it always sounds a little different! this tells me I haven’t yet found my true inner voice, I am not convinced she’s there., I’m looking for her every time. This is the first time a vocal instructor has shared with me “ “ where” to start Training to set ground.
Thank You ! You’re incredible.

A great teacher is one who brings out sth in you that you thought you never had inside you. You are that kind of teacher Mr. Tamplin, teaching millions around the world.
Love from Kenya! ❤

What I love about Ken that makes him still my fave online vocal coach (after perusing many others) is that he has so much dang fun with it. Tres motivating.

I just realised that this is what my teacher is trying to teach me.
Thanks for the video. Over my singing journey i changed a lot of times opinion about you but currently i am sitting at "oh wow this person is very good and once i get the foundations down i might try taking lessons from him"

Great respect for your craft.

[TexasDesert]

WOW Ken, that was a really sweet high note. I wish I lived close to you so I could reap the rewards of an in person lesson. Thank you for such great instructions

[divinusfilius]

Shhh! Don't give up our little secret. Good stuff, Ken!

[Ladyshee]

This is like gold dust to a singer! Thanks Ken, your course is awesome!

[GlobalDoe]

i wanna say it's absolutely true ken. i'm self taught singer (2 years) and i was wondering why sometimes i could get notes sounding like a Professional and sometimes i were just screwing up sounding more like a dying goat. i been playing around with my voice and noticed that when dropping my larinx down i was able to make the sound resonate in a sustainable way. so i've just to retrain from that position in order to fix all those stuff i did wrong. I came into your video a bit too late, but it's sincerely helping.

[stevenrockwell]

I did Look you up. That's when I knew you were being more than honest about, what you're talking about. You just proved it again.

[ghostashghostash]

The way you sing, the way you explain so precisely and concisely and your passion in making sure people are learning the correct things so as to not waste their time learning mistakes instead. I am definitely going to watch more vids, im a fan of you already!!! Keep on with the positivity sharing!!!

[JimJames_music]

Your videos are truly inspiring and helping me find my voice and self confidence. Ty from the bottom of my heart ❤ I was brought to tears when I realized I can do it

[AmandaAmanMusic]

Cool video and great vocal control! It can seem overwhelming to start out singing and realize how much is really happening inside without training. I understand the larynx positions better now, thanks!
