I don't know how it took me so long to find you but after watching a few of your videos I will say that you are the best vocal coach I've found on the internet bar none. I've trained with a number of vocal coaches and you combine the best of what they teach in a much easier to comprehend way as well as offering a lot of new, practical and eye opening tips for opening up the voice. I am very grateful to have found you!
I find interesting with your vocal technique and series of exercises. It helps me improve my vocal range and singing technique. Very simplified vocal exercises. Because of your free online voice lessons/training, I'm dreaming again to audition in the big stage of amateur singing contest in our place. When I was a kid I used to joined in a singing contest and thanks God I always won but because of lack of practiced and don't know the vocal and singing techniques, I find disinterest to continue joining because I have a fear and insecure of defeating by good contestants with good vocal training. Now, that I have learned so many vocal exercises or techniques from your free online healthy vocal techniques, I have the confidence to join again in the big stage of singing contest though I am 60 year old now. I love to sing in a karaoke as my training ground for singing applying of what I have learned from you. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge for those who do not have enough budget for paying voice lessons like me.

She didn't lie when she said "quick fixes to help you sing better right now!" It's true, just attempted these and it felt and sounded magical instantly!! You're the best Victoria!!!
It is SO important to have a good feel for what your easiest vowel is and what your hardest vowel is. Take the best qualities of your easy vowel and integrate them into your harder vowels. Do the exercises in this video as I demonstrated and then do them again beginning with your best vowel. Here is my PLAYLIST on Vowels: ruclips.net/p/PLaWjWxiTysDADhRVZJvoZI0QJzbsWShRg
You are just fabulous! I have been facing the sore throat after singing and I was unaware of the reason behind it. I had been attributing it to my age! I am 64 and have restarted my training in Indian Classical music. I am going to repeat this video several times till I internalise the instructions completely. Thank you!
Your techniques have given my voice life again. After a second baby and months of morning sickness, I thought it was the end for my voice. The impossible is possible again. Thank you thank you thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us
I found from these exercise that the sound of EE is the hardest for me. My tongue goes way up and it sounds thin. The easiest sound for me is AH. The EE is really hard to change after 50 years of singing, but I'm determined to overcome it. Great teaching!!!
AH used to be my hardest vowel but now it’s my best since I started your videos! OO is still hard but a lot better than it used to be! Thank you so much for your clear tips!
These types of videos are the ones that help my jaw tension so much , I was struggling with a lot of tension and get never get rid of it , after using these videos and practicing constantly, that all changed , thank you !!!!
So thorough! I'm confident this series will single-handedly help me improve a lot. I love the physiological explanations, examples of possible issues, and just everything about the lessons.
EE is still the most challenging for me, and OH the easiest. These exercises are included in my daily warm up with your scales and sustained notes. Thank you! ♥️
I just did a cover of My Mother Told Me, and I noticed I struggled so hard on the "EE" parts, which include the usage of the word "I". My easiest vowel is OH, for example "shore". Thanks for this lol
The ee is easiest for me. and I have trouble with getting enough breath when im trying to sing higher Notes. Thank you for your teaching what u know. So glad I found your videos.
I already I'm making advancement. I don't know actually what is happening but I sing with more freedom more free than before.. So even this vowel thing can add a tremendous amount of good singing? This is so amazing!
My singing voice got so much better after learning to control how much air is released by the throat. This part makes me worried though because I have a tongue tie, my tongue is like ridiculously short ha.
Many people struggle with the “ee” which I’ve found to come naturally and easiest to perfect.. however “Sustaining my “Ah” with support is a struggle I’m overcoming as well as the “Aa” vowel which is the hardest
I would like to thank you for your amazing videos and teaching skills.! I just (luckily) came across your videos a week ago and really enjoy them. My easiest vowel seems to be the EH vowel for some reason. I wonder why.
Hello mam I record and practice my exercises everyday and I was just playing all of em last night I’ve improved a lot with just your videos. So thank you so much! I still need to work more so I follow your videos regularly they’ve been my best source of help😊🤍🤍 Do you think you can touch on vowel modifications as well? Also the tongue exercise helped me significantly to reduce the tension. Just letting you know your exercises gives results faster and better :)

Thank you so much ma'am, i wish I was you student then learning music i think then will be fun , I'm learning Indian classical my scale is c# but my new guru tell me to sing in d# and it's very hard for me because my throat is in very tension and pain , what should I do, is male singers have to sing on high pitch. Ma'am and a last question I'm 23 and just started singing one year before is it ok to start late. Thank mam waiting for answer 🙏🏼🥳🥳🙏🏼
Hi Victoria I bought your online program awhile back. It has helped me immensely. Lately, sometimes I feel my throat tightens up before I sing. Is this anxiety or nervousness? What exercises would be good for this? thanks Jenny
Hi, Bus4. If it happens before you sing, it is like nervous tension. I have 2 videos on that. You probably did not see. Here is my latest: Nervous Singing Voice? COMBAT STAGE FRIGHT! ruclips.net/video/GBWsM7Jc3qI/видео.html
Our vocal folds are in our throat, so I believe you mean that you have throat tension. See my playlst on Throat Tension. If you are pushing and shouting, see my playlist on Mixed Voice.
I take private lessons but I am too tight and cannot sing in front of teacher. So i started to record and practicing while driving and after 10 min my throught is done, by the time of my next lesson I cannot sing at all. My teacher never says anything about throat only to direct sound to the front teath. Whatever that means. So I probably doing a lot of wrong things with my throat. I will try it on a way back home. Thank you.
I have a lot of other videos on throat tension in this playlist. I hope they help! PLAYLIST: Throat, Tongue & Jaw Tension in Singing - Free up your Voice! ruclips.net/p/PLaWjWxiTysDDDSGygoVWRk_IfZeFI71aj

I am struggling with throat tension so my voice gets hoarse as I'm singing high notes (as well as maintaining breath support while singing high notes).

@@Victoria-Victorious thanks Victoria! I've been binging your videos over the passed few days 😂 Loving your work! ❤️ I've bookmarked your tight throat playlist, and am going to work through that too 😊
I love it mama,it has really helped me and I see a difference, since am planning to produce ma songs I fill so equipt be blessed madam Victoria Victorious.
No, that is not right for singing and will make you super nasal. You might have heard that for the NG exercise, but you must open around that when you sing.
Without hearing you, I am guessing that your jaw or tongue might be tight when singing bright. Check the jaw first. I have videos on both. See my playlist on throat tension: ruclips.net/p/PLaWjWxiTysDDDSGygoVWRk_IfZeFI71aj
Our choir teacher is always talking vowels - it really changes the sound. My easiest is ahh and the hardest is ee - because I want to close my mouth more than it should. Practice.
I’m confused. I started one video and you directed to another one to do first. Went to that one and again directed to another one to do first. Do you have a course where the videos are numbered so I can go through them in suggested order please? I have been singing all my life but never had training.

A is my toughest vowel
It is for many singers! You are not alone!
My AH is still a bit spread. My ee and eh are clearer but with tongue and throat tension.
E sound easiest today.
How to stop singing from throat?
Our vocal folds are in our throat, so I believe you mean that you have throat tension. See my playlst on Throat Tension. If you are pushing and shouting, see my playlist on Mixed Voice.
My biggest problem are I and E.These two are really tough
I have videos on I and E in this playlist: Vowels in Singing - Clear, Aligned & Beautiful ruclips.net/p/PLaWjWxiTysDADhRVZJvoZI0QJzbsWShRg

Dunno the easiest but aaah is definitely the most difficult, or ay
That's a good start to know what your hardest vowels are. Try working from AH to those vowels and see if that is easier (the way I show in the video).
Is freeing up your vowels a warm up before singing or an actual exercise with long term effect on the voice if frequently done
Both, because it gives you good singing habits in the long term.
How do I fix jaw tightness sometimes I'll use compression but I feel like it tires me out more than it should
See my playlist on Jaw Tension. ☺️
ah und o are my best vowels at the moment
ä (as in cat) is my hardest currently

@@Victoria-Victorious Thank you! I'll check these out.
AH or EE
Do you teach private lessons?
Yes, I do. Please check my website: www.healthyvocaltechnique.com/
What are the central vowels?
Central vowels are formed with the tongue in an intermediate position (between the front and back vowels), as in UH (bug).
I also want to know. Is freeing your vowels in the file of phonation?? Or it's found elsewhere ( breathing and resonance)
The formation of vowels affects both phonation and resonance.
I think IH coupled with increasing pitch is probably my most challenging. Just trying out your exercises and using the fingers to open my throat!
Keeping my fingers crossed I can apply it when using songs I'm practising 🤞🤞
Keep toggling back and forth - fingers on, fingers off. With good practice, it will definitely help!
@@Victoria-Victorious thanks Victoria! I've been binging your videos over the passed few days 😂 Loving your work! ❤️
I've bookmarked your tight throat playlist, and am going to work through that too 😊
Easiest Ah
Hardest Oo
I love it mama,it has really helped me and I see a difference, since am planning to produce ma songs I fill so equipt be blessed madam Victoria Victorious.
Are the exercises at the end in your singing course?
I have 2 sections on vowels in the program and include most of the exercises in this video.
Should my tongue be touching my soft palate when I’m singing? I’ve heard many tell me to help an open throat is to touch the two
No, that is not right for singing and will make you super nasal. You might have heard that for the NG exercise, but you must open around that when you sing.
If phonating bright sound produce tension, how can I sing with it because it's my style to belt with bright sound?
Without hearing you, I am guessing that your jaw or tongue might be tight when singing bright. Check the jaw first. I have videos on both. See my playlist on throat tension: ruclips.net/p/PLaWjWxiTysDDDSGygoVWRk_IfZeFI71aj
O
Our choir teacher is always talking vowels - it really changes the sound. My easiest is ahh and the hardest is ee - because I want to close my mouth more than it should. Practice.
Easiest is eh 🙋🏽♂️
Eh is often a difficult vowel for singers. Great that it is easiest for you!
I’m confused. I started one video and you directed to another one to do first. Went to that one and again directed to another one to do first. Do you have a course where the videos are numbered so I can go through them in suggested order please? I have been singing all my life but never had training.
