Phase 2 builds on phase one by linking technique to the body's support reflex, teaching singing by feel to restore muscle memory and coordination for a natural singer.
Release the laryngeal and pharyngeal spaces to ease throat tension, then use pranayama to strengthen vocal fold muscle memory, breathing, range, and tonal quality.
Learn to coordinate larynx posture and breathing to bring vocal cords together without swallowing tension, using nose inhalation and a zero gravity effect to strengthen and protect your singing voice.
Learn a conditioning routine that blends breathing technique with glottal fry inhalation and vocal fry work to strengthen support muscles, improve breath control, and open the chest for natural singing.
Release the tongue to reawaken the full support mechanism, enabling a fuller voice, relaxed throat, and natural blending of the registers for easier upper range access.
Coordinate chest and head voice by freeing the tongue through targeted root-of-tongue stretches, pulling and releasing to ease the transition across passaggio and improve tonal connection.
Learn to release the tongue root and use a raspberry trill to balance breath and vocal resonance. Practice gentle, non-pushing technique to build muscle memory for free, connected singing.
Learn how nasal resonance opens the throat with a lifted soft palate, creating acoustical space for a freer, more resonant voice and easier release into the upper registers.
Explore coordination techniques to awaken facial and throat muscles, feel the soft palate and uvula, and release back of the throat through loose lip trill and raspberry trill.
Awaken the natural singing mechanism by releasing the throat and facial muscles, aligning breath with a full-body warm-up, and practicing tongue and soft-palate drills to widen the throat.
Discover how controlled compressed breath supports the vocal folds, balances pressure to avoid over squeezing or under squeezing, and builds powerful dynamic singing through body connection and posture.
Learn breath coordination for natural singing by using a straw and bubbles to visualize air flow, aiming for small, consistent bubbles and a relaxed body.
Conditioning uses a straw to produce a buzzy tone and build core vocal support. Find a comfortable pitch, sustain small bubbles, and engage abdominal and ribcage muscles.
Learn to release your throat and engage your body with a straw in water to refine support, build internal pressure, and produce singing power using classical techniques without shouting.
Develop body connection and a buzzy ooh sensation to blend head and chest voice, using the buzzy technique and throat release for precise coordination.
Engage in a simple conditioning warm-up that slides up and down your comfortable range with a small mouth opening and relaxed jaw, promoting mouth buzz and full-body engagement.
Learn how reflexive and active support connect body to voice for control and protection; avoid unhealthy abdominal support and discover a safe, effective approach to resonant voice.
Discover how to actively open the ribcage with a backward cobra head posture, keep the diaphragm open, and use back muscles for safe, resonant singing.
Learn vocal conditioning to master rib cage openness and coordination, using active opening, counting from one to five, breath support, and exercises to strengthen intercostal muscles for natural singing.
Explore how phase two uses respiratory resistance training and vocal fry to ease inhalation, connect registers, and build one clear voice from root to rib cage.
You've mastered the techniques in Phase 1, and you've decided that you want to be more than just a “good" singer. You want the advanced skills necessary to be downright impressive - a dynamic voice that feels truly effortless. In Phase 2 “Becoming A Natural Singer", you will discover a whole new dimension of vocal freedom!
Fact: Your body is designed to sing. The idea that amazing voices are reserved only for a chosen few has no scientific basis whatsoever. What I've discovered through years of research and experience is that most struggling vocalists (and even many “trained" singers) suffer from one major problem - a collapsed throat; this places excess pressure on the vocal folds, making the voice feel heavier that it really is. Sadly, I meet vocalists every day who have never had the incredible experience of singing with a truly released throat.
Most commonly taught classical techniques attempt to force the throat open, ironically making the problem even worse by causing more tightness. Other so-called “modern" methods hardly reference the problem of throat release at all, instead focusing exclusively on mixing techniques. But, in Phase 2, we combine time-tested ancient wisdom with modern science and years of professional industry experience. The result is an advanced technique that is proven to be effective in restoring full freedom to the folds.
How long this course takes to complete is entirely up to you, though we strongly recommend spending at least one week on each section. Every lesson is broken down into three basic parts: (1) Ebook guide, (2) The video lessons (3) your MP3 practice warmups (which you can listen to online or download for your own convenience). Of course, you still have the option of asking questions in the Phase 2 forum and receiving help from trained AApproach instructors.
