How Do You Do The Going-Down Singing Exercise?
Warming up your vocal chords not only benefits singers, but also those who must give speeches and talk for their profession. Having strong vocal chords will allow you to have more control over your speaking and singing voice. Whether you are a stage performer or you sing in your school or church choir, daily vocal exercises are extremely important. Before you begin any vocal exercise, make sure that your vocal chords are properly hydrated. Drinking plenty of water before, during and after the exercise is important. Stay away from soda, coffee and dairy products before you sing (or perform vocal exercises). Being aware of your body is crucial for a singer. Make sure that your chin stays level, neither too high nor too low, and your shoulders remain relaxed and level. Many singers have a tendency to raise their shoulders, or tense up within the neck/shoulder region. If you find this to be you, bend over at the hips and let your arms dangle for a few moments. This will release any tension
