Accepting Your Voice

The Voice Teacher Podcast

Aimee got to improv for an 80s night and found out just how much she didn’t know!

Sam reminds her it’s ok to not know everything, and they have a lively discussion about how important it is to help students be ok with making ALL the sounds, not just the ones they think are “OK.”

The difference between classically trained singers and pop singers when the improv.

Getting over the feeling of always having to do it “right.”

False science and how we use it, regardless of whether or not it has been scientifically proven.

Helping students identify sounds and accepting them.

The similarities between cheerleading and singing (from a performing perspective.)

How to let go and just be in the moment when you are singing.

How extremes make for more interesting singing.
