The Vocal Warmup You'll Actually Use Every Day (No Talking, Just Singing)

A gentle, focused vocal warmup you can bookmark and come back to every day — whether you're recording at home, prepping for a show, or just sitting down to sing. Minimal talking, maximum singing. Four exercises that take you through your range and open up your voice with intention. I've been singing formally for over 30 years, and these are the exercises I actually use — the ones that live in my body, not the ones I learned once and forgot. 📍 CHAPTERS 0:00 — Who this warmup is for + posture setup 1:02 — Breath: the hermetic breath into the belly 1:10 — Exercise 1: Five-note scale on "miaam" (open vowel, tongue flat) 5:02 — Exercise 2: Chromatic hum, five semitones (forward resonance) 7:33 — Exercise 3: Head voice — descend onto the note from above 9:56 — Exercise 4: Full descending release 10:59 — Outro + how to get a warmup built around your voice 🎤 TAKE THE FREE VOCAL QUIZ Not sure what's actually getting in the way of your voice?
