I been practicing SLS for over a year now and I learned that it's the same volume as your speech as well. I did Muh, Foo, Wah, and Wee. I would practice them for several hours a day. It finally clicked just recently. There's no need to strain or pull up chest voice which was my problem in the beginning. It's an amazing feeling once you get it.
@@FireboltJB I was diagnosed w MTD ten years ago so I suppose it’s been ten years! :) I have always had a good practice routine… practicing 3-5 times a week. These days I see a vocal coach 2 times a month and I honestly don’t do a ton of practice anymore. I am a vocal coach so I am always sort of in the practice of all things voice. I would say to look at your life and see what will work for you. Find a routine that feels sustainable and good and just keep at it. Also, be flexible and compassionate with yourself.
@@FireboltJB yes :) and our speaking voices can be quiet or loud or somewhere in between! When I approach singing from more of a speaking place it just feels much freer to me. I think a lot of us singers have a tendency to try too hard to sing because we think it’s different from our speaking voices… but it’s the same voice. :)
oh wow! - this is cool : ) It makes it easier to hit higher notes...as a contralto I wanna have more power in the higher notes and with your video it makes it so much easier and natural - thanks!
I have to point out they in my sls training there was never a mention they singing needs to be the same volume as your speech. I think sls doesn't really dictate the volume of the singing, just that it should be as comfortable and effortless as speaking.
@@geromino2007 yes it should be comfortable and effortless like speech! And just like speech the volume of the voice can change too…loud medium or soft depending on what’s being communicated.
Nice lesson. Thank you
Great explanation of the important subtle points of SLS.😊
i’m using this video for my daily warmups now, thank you!
Woo hoo!!

@@LizBills How long did it take you to get to where you are? Oh and how many hours do you practice a day?

@@LizBills Let's see if I got this right. So majority of the SLS exercises are designed to get you to sing the song in a spoken type of voice?
