Training The Vocal Athlete: Strategies For Efficient Belting
Thursday 9th September 2021, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
Healthy, sustainable belting results from a singer’s ability to efficiently and effectively use their instrument for maximum output with minimal cost to the larynx.
Given the varied demands placed on CCM performers, the vocal athlete must navigate multiple levels of fitness ranging from general physical fitness to a high level of vocal fitness in order to meet industry demands and performance expectations in a competitive arena.
While there are multiple CCM vocal styles, all require a strong, stable vocal mechanism that is balanced and efficient.
Using interactive models with participants and evidence-based exercises, this workshop will address the needs of this specialized population including strategies to maximize strength and coordination, as well as specialized exercises to facilitate healthy belting and balanced voice production.
