1-1 VOCAL TRAINING AND MENTORSHIP SESSIONS WILL EXPLORE...

SOVT STRAW SINGING 101

We’ll spend some time diving into the essential things you need to know about singing through a straw, including an overview of the science of how it all works, giving you a strong foundation of the theory, whilst also touching on the vocal health and wellbeing aspects of SOVT too. We’ll also spend time exploring all the different ways of doing ‘SOVT’, as well as working on selecting the right SOVT Straw size/configuration for your unique voice.

BREATHING AND PRESSURE MANAGEMENT

In the same way that your electronic devices require careful management of electricity to work, the sound production process requires efficient and appropriate management of both airflow and pressure. We'll explore correctly and efficiently managing the respiratory system so that you are not over or under-loading the vocal folds, and are always providing the right amount of ‘power’ to the voice.

PITCH, RANGE, AND TARGETED NOTES

Singing through a straw changes the environment that the vocal folds are met with, allowing for more efficient airflow, pressure management, vocal fold closure (adduction), tension release, and vocal fold oscillation. We'll be focusing note isolation, ensuring each note across your range is created as efficiently as possible, whilst exploring how SOVT exercises can help to improve your range overall and make reaching those high notes SO much easier!

ACTING THROUGH SONG

One of the most challenging aspects to a performance is connecting the words that we sing to the character driven emotional context. We will explore how to act-through-song, using appropriate emotion and expression, and we'll also break down the lyrics to help you understand meaning and subtext. We'll isolate the characters internal monologue as well, enabling you to fully embody the character.

CUSTOM VOCAL EXERCISE DESIGN

We'll also be working together to design bespoke catalogue of highly effective vocal exercises for your unique individual voice, which will then form the basis of your custom daily vocal exercise regime. We will also design and build custom regimes for your specific aims and goals, specific vocal tasks, genres/styles, and for warmups, cool-downs, fatigued voices, and more

PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER

As we develop the voice, we'll also start to apply the techniques we explore to the songs that you enjoy singing. This will help to fully consolidate the technical understanding, taking the theory and exercise-based work, and applying it directly to a song. We'll discuss how to maintain a healthy voice as a professional performer, and we can explore your professional career, branding, business advice, and more!
