Your whole body is your instrument, and that doesn’t just mean when you’re performing. The memories you carry in your body are powerful tools you can tap into when you’re learning and practicing and growing your voice. When I’m singing long phrases, I lean on a vivid image from my childhood, of a massive truck sharing the narrow mountain highway with my family's tiny car. That memory helps me access the power I need for long, connected phrases. I’m certain you have a similar experience you can draw on to help your body feel the power it carries within. Let’s talk about how you can find it for yourself.
