It is the balance of the Yogi, the thrust behind the Kung Fu master, the driving force of the Olympiad, and the foundation of your emotional release and technical control in singing. Breathing exercises simultaneously wake up your singing muscles while calming your pulse and respiration rate. They clear your mind, center your concentration, and transform the excitement of performance adrenaline into positive energy and control. And like my student Giselle said the first day she tried them, " I feel clean inside."
