Exercise Physiology And Motor Learning Principles In The Studio And The Practice Room
Thursday 10th February 2022, 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM (London Time)
This class will outline key concepts in exercise physiology and motor learning, and provide examples of how these concepts might be applied to training singers and practicing.
Particular attention will be given to several key principles of physical training: overload, specificity, individuality, and reversibility.
Attendees will be given a table which summarizes various types of practice and feedback, details how such practice and feedback might be used in singing training, and current evidence on the strengths and weaknesses of each type for promoting immediate performance versus learning.
Ideas for implementing these principles in organizing a lesson and preparing for a recital will be shared.
