Perhaps no other strategy will help you progress faster with your singing voice than this:
during your practice sessions, sing softer.
Practice singing loud hurts your progress.
Inside this video I'll show you how you will make more progress faster just by reducing
the loudness.

Practice Singing Loud Hurts Your Progress
A very high percentage of students I teach, both on skype and in person are singing too
loud when they practice exercises and sing songs.
[demo ah]
Loud singing causes several problems.
It throws the voice out of balance.
That means that too much air is sent to the vocal cords.
Too much air blast causes the vocal cords to tighten up so they can hold back the air.
The vocal cords so tight that the muscles around the vocal cords also tighten up.
Then the outer neck muscles tighten and squeeze.
This pulls the larynx upward.
[demo oh]
Now the voice jams up.
As the pitch goes higher, the loudness increases.
Then the voice cracks or breaks into falsetto.
Or you pull chest voice higher and sing even louder until it sounds like yelling instead
of singing.
[demo eh]
Then we try harder and sing even louder.
You know how that turns out.
[demo ae]
It doesn't seem right that we can fix our voices and improve faster by reducing the
volume and singing softer.
But that is exactly what we must do!
It's easy.
It works like this.
Sing softer.
Do this one thing and your problems begin to melt away.
The vocal cords will balance with the air flow and singing will become easier, more
relaxed and eventually effortless.
[Demo ah]
The tightness and squeeze in your vocal cords will leave.
The tension in your throat and neck will be gone.
[Demo oh]
The squeezing from the outer neck muscles will no longer exist.
You will learn to bridge easily.
This means you will sing from your lowest notes to your highest notes without breaking,
cracking or straining.
[Demo eh]
This results in a balanced voice.
Then you can begin to increase the volume.
You can begin to lean more firmly on the feeling of the mix and head voice.
By doing this, your mix and head voice will begin to have a stronger, chest presence or
sound without pulling up the chest voice.
[Demo ae]
Now you will be able to sing all different dynamics...soft to loud and loud to soft in
one breath.
A new mastery and confidence will take over your singing.
If your vocal type is Light Chest-No Chest, this advice is best followed after you get
your vocal cords to come together firmly.
Exercises for your voice are sometimes more aggressive at first.
Once chest voice is established and your voice is balanced, then singing softer may likely
work for you as well.
It's important to know your vocal type so you can choose exercises that will help you
correct the problem areas of your voice.
To discover your vocal type, visit PowerToSing.com and take the vocal test, which I call the
PowerTest.
Take the quiz and discover your vocal type.
Then visit the Knowledge Center and watch the videos about your vocal type.
