As a vocal coach with years of experience in teaching singing techniques, I can provide you with a detailed explanation on how to sing from your stomach, which is essentially about engaging your diaphragm for better breath control and vocal support. When you sing from your stomach, you are using your diaphragm, which is a large, dome-shaped muscle located at the base of your lungs. This muscle plays a crucial role in controlling your breath, which is essential for singing. Here's how you can practice singing from your diaphragm: 1. Find your diaphragm: Lie down on your back and place a hand on your abdomen, just below your ribcage. Take a deep breath, and you should feel your hand move outward as your diaphragm expands. 2. Practice diaphragmatic breathing: Stand or sit comfortably. Inhale deeply through your nose, and as you do so, push your stomach out as far as possible. This is your diaphragm engaging and allowing your lungs to fill with air. Keep your shoulders still and relaxed. 3. Exhale and engage: Now, exhale slowly through your mouth, and as you do, pull your stomach back in. This action will push air out of your lungs and up through your vocal cords, creating sound. The engagement of your diaphragm provides the necessary pressure to support your voice. 4. Maintain postural support: Keep your back straight and your chest lifted. This posture helps to maximize the efficiency of your diaphragmatic breathing. 5. Practice with toning: You can practice these breathing exercises by simply saying "toning" on a single vowel sound like "oo" or "ah" while maintaining the diaphragmatic breathing technique. 6. Apply to singing: As you become more comfortable with diaphragmatic breathing, start applying this technique to your singing. Focus on the breath support and the engagement of your diaphragm as you sing phrases, especially on longer notes or higher pitches. Remember, it's important to practice regularly and to start with short, gentle exercises to avoid straining your voice or your diaphragm. read more >>
