I'm a transmasc person on testosterone and have started losing my middle range a bit because I didn't have the resources to keep them in practice, this jas helped tremendously! I'm able to bridge these cracks in my voice so much better now and am slowly restoring my vocal range closer to where I used to be
I've never considered myself a singer but I do play guitar and while playing, half of the fun is singing along. I've been watching your videos and doing the exercises for the past couple months. And I can't believe how my voice is developing! I'm hitting notes I haven't been able to hit before and I'm hitting them hard! I'm starting to take my singing more seriously now because of you!! Thank you Miss, your work here is invaluable!! : )
Wow, Jimmy, that's great! Thank you for your exciting post!
I LOVE this lady!! After having vocal lessons for years and now retraining my voice, I’ve watched and even bought other programs. I’ve learned the most from her short videos. She is definitely on POINT! 🙌🏽
Oh, thank you so much for your post! I'm happy that my videos help you. You can check out my audio exercise program or submit a video for review. www.healthyvocaltechnique.com/
My biggest struggle is descending with a voice crack. I can seem to smooth it out, going up, but not down. I have my last performance of the year tonight at a nice restaurant in Missoula. Little nervous as a soloist this time. I’ll be having some rehabilitation from a surgery after that and plan on using that time to dive in. any short term suggestions for the descend other than what is posted here which is helpful. Maybe it just takes time and repetition with the finger squeeze exercise
Hey Victoria! I am a trans woman who has had a trouble getting into a warm up routine for my vocal practice, and I had just given up on it for years.
I'm going on a date with someone today, and a few days ago I thought, "I'd like to sing for them." I noticed a flat transition in my singing voice, which led me to your video. Now, not only do I have more confidence in my singing, you helped unlock a warm up routine for me, and I feel ready to get back into voice therapy!
I'm going to devour the other videos on your channel, and I'm going to post your video/channel across all of my online trans communities. If I can ever afford you, you will absolutely be my first call for individual vocal coaching.
Thank you, ever so much, again 😊
I am so happy that I can help you! Why don't you take my group classes for members of my audio exercise training program? Super affordable! www.healthyvocaltechnique.com/group-classes/

This exercise worked but gave me a hot flash. Love Victoria's wonderful, thoughtful and helpful exercises and the time she commits to her channel. And she does not suffer fools.
Dear Lord! I know everyone progresses differently, but for me, smoothing out Passgio across my range is....helping to loosen and tie together my jaw/tongue...everything works together! Like singing, your instruction ALL TIES TOGETHER. Oh yes, and to all my guitar-playing playing friends-smoothing out Passagio helps your EAR, tremendously. Thank. You, Maestra! (I'd love to play and sing for you someday!)
Thanks for sharing your great report!
I really hope the University I plan on going to will have Vocal Coaches that are experienced like you! You are such an expert when it comes to folds and support!
Love how you explain things!

I never thought I could sing until your instructions!!!! 🙏
Thanks so much Victoria, I love your videos! You are so good at discribing things in a way that I can grasp and get the feel of - not an easy task when our instrument is our own bodies!

Hi Ms. Victoria,
I enjoy your videos so much and have learned a lot! Do you have any videos on or that cover nasality in tone?
No, I don't but I do mention nasality in a few of my videos. To fix nasality, you just need to lift your soft palate a bit higher (not forced too high). When it is too low, the nasal port opens and air comes out of the nose, causing nasality.
Thank you🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
I love your confidence .your brilliant, I would love one of you books please ❤
Please see the link in the description box below the video.
Yes, this is my biggest fear with singing!
SEI MERAVIGLIOSA... GRAZIE INFINITE ❤
I love your teaching style - KISS -.

I just love this 🎩🦅🎸
Next week I’ll be singing for the first time alone in front of people I’m a little nervous but how can God use me if I don’t let go of fear therefore I stumble across you and you’re definitely a better teacher.
I’ve learned something from you
That’s having confidence 🤗💕
Congratulations, Joyce! How exciting! Don't worry about being a bit nervous; that is normal and will improve the more you perform in front of people. Focus on having fun and singing from your heart. I have 2 videos on stage fright. I recommend that you start with this one: Nervous Singing Voice? COMBAT STAGE FRIGHT! ruclips.net/video/GBWsM7Jc3qI/видео.html
Awesome! Love this work around the different registers. Muscle memory is key
Great! I look forward to reading about your progress!
Thank you.
You're welcome! Hope it helps!
Greetings from Norway. Your lessons are great! 🤩
Thank you! Hope you are doing great out there in Norway!
You're helps Us
I am not a singer but I have been singing second soprano since I was a kid, was in a choir most of my life I have never taken lessons but I haven't done any singing since I lost my grandparents they were the ones that got me started and I love to sing, I wanted to be a singer when I was young, but now that I am in my mid 50's my voice cracks, my daughter suggested that I take some lessons. ❤
It's never too late to resume singing and find the joy again! See this video: TOO OLD TO SING? Too Old to Start? ruclips.net/video/-WKQ2WxXus4/видео.html
Great video, thank you 🙏 do you do any live and/or online sessions by any chance?
Sure! www.healthyvocaltechnique.com/group-classes/
You are so good at what you do!!!!!!! I'm not really sure what you mean by space between the molars?
Exactly as the term states - space between your back molars, like you have a little piece of candy between your top and bottom back teeth - for a taller throat space.
I love your talking 😍😍😍
Thank you! 😀
Hi, Victoria. I just discovered you and am slowly making my way through your tutorials (and I need them, tout de suite!). You are adorable. I have a favor to ask, though. I wonder if it would be possible to put a recap graphic at the end of the new videos with all of the exercises you’ve mentioned during the video so we could take a screen shot of the list of steps you covered?
Thank you for your suggestion. I actually tried that in the past and decided against it. More people were just skipping to the end and not even watching how to do the exercises or what they were even for. Then they would ask all kinds of questions because they did not understand them. Most of my long-form videos have chapters that can help!
Thank you. I’ve been screen-shotting each single graphic so I can use them for warm-ups and specific focus issues in my voice. I love your videos and style!
Love your training. Free training booklets

My voice Crack is in the upper register. It catches and suddenly jumps to a very high pitch (ascending) or jumps to a lower pitch (descending)
Awesome..2 minutes and cracking over
And to think- my ex-coach taught me specifically PUSH/PULL the chest as high as I could, and tighten my abs/stomach/chest as much as I could for "support". He was the biggest moron to ever teach! Wow. No wonder I had a nodule. Glad it healed, I feel blessed and fortunate now in hindsight. Geez.
Can you recommend any online/skype coaches, Victoria? I trust your judgment fully :-)
I don’t have anyone I can recommend at the moment. My private studio is very full and has a long waitlist. I recommend participating in my group classes for members of my audio exercise training program.
@@Victoria-Victorious Darn, well I thank you anyway :-)
I will check out your site for the classes for sure.
I will continue to work on this, however my question is: how do you know when it's merely a break in the voice or if the note is just too high for one's voice? I'm thinking I'm an alto and trying to sing with hopes of soprano notes.
I’m went to school for music and I wish I had seen this ages ago. I’m still to scared to sing. When can I have a private lesson??
Great as always! I can do it on the exercises, is there a more spoken exercise to get closer to singing.? How can we convince our body to keep the vowels/throat slender? In theory everything is clear, but when it comes to singing, my body doesn't want to cooperate 😅🙄
Speak the lyrics closer to the pitch where you will sing them, then if comfortable, sing. Make your songs into exercises. As far as convincing your body, that is muscle memory and requires lots of regular practice (I'd say 6 days a week, even a few minutes each day focusing on the particular issue) to become built in.
Awesome as always Victoria ♥️🎩♥️
I'm just a gentile but I'd like to say thank you.😊👍
Great! Question, when you say pushing too much, you mean too much volume?
Pushing too much volume, locking abs, over-blowing (too much air)
If you’re losing your voice while singing what do you suggest we do?
Stop singing. I will discuss this in my next video.
I sometimes crack like a bag pipe 🎉 at unexpected places. Scary😮. Maybe these exercises will help.
Can you please make a video showing us how to sing with the piano :) and on pitch
I have a video on how to fix flat singing.
@@Victoria-Victorious I have that problem, too! So excited I've found your videos.
How do you tell cracking from vocal Fry
Vocal fry is a stylistic choice, whereas cracking is unintentional because the voice is out of balance for any of the reason I give in this video.
Hi I have a question, why when I hum or phonate starting from low note then slide up to above my passagio, I can transition smoothly but when going back from above the passagio to low note, my voice has noticeable flip and is not smooth?
Ah, without hearing you, I am assuming that above your passaggio you are either starting out too light (falsetto?) and not transitioning *gradually* as you descend, or your larynx is too high and then clunks down as you descend. Either way, something is off balance when starting from above. Try shorter intervals of a fifth or even a third first. Also lip trills through that same spot.
I feel like I crack because I have a lot of tension/fear/anxiety and I don't open my mouth freely
How do we sing with compression
Watch my 2 videos on fixing the Weak Voice and the Breathy Voice in my playlist: Better Tone Quality in Singing! ruclips.net/p/PLaWjWxiTysDDB0K_J9FKiiwSxcV65xjxh. When that is easy, then you can go on to my 2 videos on How to Build More Power. ruclips.net/video/HQXOI3DPTs4/видео.html
Sometime is lack of air with me please need a lot of help
See my playlist on breathing & breath support.
Looking at these they mention vocal cracking or flipping and I don't have either of those. Is there something else I can do to figure out my passaggio?
Is it strengthening the passaggio that you need? All of the exercises in my passaggio playlist will help strengthen it, whether you crack, flip, need to smooth it out, or are just weak. Also check your middle voice which is very important as you approach the passaggio. I have a video on that too. Check my playlist page on my channel.

I got walking pneumonia and it caused a crack in my voice I never had before , is it possible to regain that range again?
Oh, sorry, I cannot tell. I suggest resting your voice and then seeing an ENT dr if the crack persists past 2 weeks.
I am confused very much .... You say we should not lock our abdominal but if we use thick baloon technique we can't stop abs to tight...?
The thick balloon image and exercise should not lock your abs and ribs. If you are locking, you have too much resistance and not enough airflow.
@@Victoria-Victorious so that means we can have tension or resistance in our abdominal in a balanced way... Too much resistance will lock us
Correct. Watch my other videos on breath support in my Breathing & Breath Support playlist. I show how to apply to singing.
5:25 I was still cracking
Geez I thought she said you should keep your BOWELS slender
😎🌹🍦
Was hoping you had an answer to my cracking!!
Thank you so much!
Following you every day…
When you said "always space between the molars, please," I looked at the screen and squinted. Sounded too Karen-y
Good tips though, thanks!
It all comes down to what kind of sound you want.
Va boom still a hot momma!
crack is wack!
