This vidio is good; but some audio discription would be helpful for anyone else who's like me totally blind; mirrors don't help in this ininstance; although, I'm lucky I've got a singing teacher. But describing anything visual you put into your vidios would help greatly. Many thanks Geoff. :)
Hi Jeff ! Have a quick question six years later… 😹 When do I start noticing I’m getting better, just to kinda have sense of when to level up little bit more. Also, I’m taking singing clases once a week they last 30 min, which I find not enough for me to really get into what is getting better AT CLASS, I stopped vocalizing like 4 weeks ago and took a Christmas break but kept making songs and basically singing… anyways, thanks for your videos and giving me a sense of hope and to keep going ! 🫶🏼
The entirety of it need not tense. The front and middle can be down and mostly released during vocalizations while the rear is actively ascending or descending based on the vowel required. Best! Jeff
For the knuckle exercise- is the goal to sing and have the knuckle not move up and down at all or at least as little as possible by adjusting voice/ placement Or do you put pressure on with the knuckle to physically stop moving up and down? Thanks!
Why is this so hard!!!!!!!?????? 😭😭😤😤
Thank you! These exercises are just what I need to keep improving my voice in between lessons here in NY. :)
You're welcome! Enjoy!
Jeff

Hello! Thanks for being here! You have asked quite a few deep questions, so I'm going to answer you in Questions from Comments 43! Thank you!
How do you relax the tongue if it's tensing?
The entirety of it need not tense. The front and middle can be down and mostly released during vocalizations while the rear is actively ascending or descending based on the vowel required.
Best!
Jeff
great! as always

Great question. Use the knuckle to monitor, not hold. Ideally we'd like to feel the tissue just above the knuckle release.
Best!
Jeff
