- What are some quick vocal warm up exercises that I recommend to all my voice students?Hyperlinks to jump to specific parts of this video:
* Activate your diaphragm 2:20
* F sound for a quicker response 4:05
* Lip trills to balance pressure 5:30
* Yum sound to blend registers 10:20
I am Madeleine Harvey. Thanks so much for hanging out with me today. Per your request is to put together a very basic very gentle very easy quick vocal warm up for when you don't have a lot of time to invest in a vocal warm up. What are some really good essential things you must do to get your voice ready to be used?
So if you'd like to his video please be sure to give it a thumbs up. It could get subscribed but below I'd love to see here more often. So a couple of things a couple of really wonderful things that you want to make sure you activate right before you sing is that you activate breath and tone right. So those two things are what we're gonna be really focusing on today. Now you can augment and modify a warm up based off of a particular style that you're singing. But this is all about keeping it nice and easy today. And again something that you can quickly do if you don't have a lot of time. So how do you activate breath. Well we want to make sure that we activate the diaphragm in an almost athletic way. This involves feeling it a little deeper and giving it the primary response ability for the sound. We want to encourage it to start behaving right in a more committed more engine like way.
So a really great way to get it active is to create an s sound for eight counts then hold the breath or suspend it. I prefer and then S for another eight counts. This will encourage your diaphragm to stabilize to really steady itself which will also in turn give you a more consistent tone. So here's what we're gonna do. We're going to ask for our eight counts. We're going to suspend the breath meaning don't breathe in don't breathe out and then we're going to s for another eight counts.
You're ready. Here we go. Take a breath in. Good good good good. So you can feel that as we lift that die from we don't want to give all of our breath away but we lift it nice and steady and then we suspend the diaphragm in a lifted position. What this is going to do is it's gonna start communicating to your brain when you saying that if you start to feel that you don't have enough gas in the tank to not pinch off at your throat but continue to go to the diaphragm go to the center of the body for what you need. Let's try this again. Excellence so your ad should be really feeling it really encouraging that day from to lift from the deep from the inside. Now you don't have to force your diaphragm to do anything it's just a natural consequence of that s consider it.
So to encourage a little bit of a quicker response we're going to change our consonant to F so notice how the diaphragm lifts a little quicker. When we say right. Good. So we're just now we're just going to regular f pulse for just eight. Now at this time we're just going to f pulse for eight. Here we go. Then good. Very good. Now as pulse for eight. Hold for eight and see if we can manage that. Any breathing in. Good. Good. Now. Now your diaphragm is awake. It's understanding what's required of it. Now we're going to add tone to this and we're going to do it in a way that is nice and gentle and can balance pressure so there's not a better saying that balance is pressure in the vocal world than a simple trill. Now you can do tongue shrill or you can do literal. I prefer the electro but I'll let you decide what's right for use. We're going to pulse on a single pitch five times. You want to make sure that movement is coming from the center of your body.
So where we'll go. OK. Feeling that gentle almost like we're babies bouncing around and a little bounce. So here we go. Now we start middle C guys if you want to start an optical go that's peachy keen fine with me. Here we go. Ready are you hearing that speed the diaphragm is now behaving in a way that's more agile quicker giving you a lot more flexibility and adaptability and flexibility when you sing three recovery well again really feeling that almost athletic approach to the center of your body you want to be able to communicate that it's the center of the body where all that power comes from. But now that we've activated the diaphragm and we've pulsed giving it a little bit more speed now let's get some tone in this mother.
If you'd like to this video please be sure to give it a thumbs up with that subscribe button below. I would love to see here what often. Thank you again for hanging out with me today. I hope you've enjoyed this for much and I will see you next time pileups.

Everybody's gangsta...
until Ms. Harvey pulls out a piano from her desk.
Did anyone else get that add where-
“ hI iM alEx aNd I hAvE beEn siNgIng for 10 yEaras. * INHALES AGGRESSIVELY*
Yes 😆😆😆😫
YES so annoyyinggg lol
Yesss ughhhhhh

Me: NYUM NYUM NYUM NYUM...
The people on my floor: What the fu....
OMG IKR?? However, it’s more like.
Me: “nyum-“ *busts into uncontrollable laughter*
Like idk WHY?.. BUT I-
I CANT- 😂
@@TaylorMLPFIDAU seriously like I try to be serious but that sound coming out of my mouth is just too funny
😂😂😂😂
Hahahahahah samee
SAME OMG
After 2 months of not vocalizing. There's a huge difference in my voice. It feels harder to project. This is perfect 😍 thank you so much.
felt you on that one
@Sophia S Even at home we should always practice and vocalize. :"( My voice feels raspy when I'm hitting the High notes in an O vowel.
Mee too
@CSI Maybe we mainly vocalize in a choir or in school cause we have space to. But due to no school cause of quarantine, we cannot vocalize
Kindly suggest whatever you did here
I love how she just pulls out a keyboard out of nowhere
But really, this is an amazing vocal warm-up, and I can already see and feel the difference
When I saw her do it during my lesson it blew my mind lol
I was the same!! :D I was like Whooooa!
Ikr. Just.
*whips out keyboard* “so, sing me your problems. I’ll play.”
Hdhrhehrh
Thank-you your help means the world to me and u are funny too....and for what it's worth this look you have in this video is 💯
the fact that the just pulled a piano out

I love how she seems so comforting and calm giving the viewers trust. She has a nice fitted home and says stuff like “I would like to see you more often.” I don’t know it just give me trust and comfort! 😊😊😊
Right!
I'm using these notes to speed up my warm ups, however please watch the video a few times until you comprehend why they are being done
Active your diaphragm 2:20
F sound for a quicker response 4:05
Lip trills 5:30
Sync speech and sing mechanism through Yum sound 10:20
Thanks so much for all this content! So much effort and creativity put in every video, greetings from México! ❤
Thank you for doing that! 🙏 I just added it to this video's description. Very much appreciate! ❤️
That was great! I am so lazy at exercising my voice. I have committed myself to doing ten minutes each day. I have a routine i got from watching videos a year ago. Now I’ve found you I’m wondering if this would be better. Do you think doing this exercise would be a good ten minute exercise to do daily?
same here, thanks for the timecode. I referred back to warm up a few more rounds
You right you right I should have watched the whole thing and came back another day and uses these because sssssssssssss lol what’s going on
I seem to get a bit dizzy when doing the trills lip or tongue. Is this normal?
“Now let’s get some tone in this mother💀😭🤣🤣🤣🤣” Felt that one
I feel like an idiot doing these, but I need to learn just to try and record my own songs.
One thing I just learned is that after doing these exercises, to also sing my songs in just 'yum yum yum', then I was finally able to sing them with an almost consistent and perfect tone just from my first 10-20 minutes of using these exercises.
AWESOME AND SHE IS TOO
How is recording your own songs coming?
I feel like an idiot too but I'm pressing on.
Neighbor's cat appreciated njam njam njam njaaaam njaaaam.
Dude my car right now
Not singing for a year has really changed my singing voice
Mine is 3 years , I completely lose my singing voice and I'm trying to get it back.
mine is 3 years and i literally lost my capability to sing high notes 😭
@@onlyangeisivy6199 same. Pls tell me it comes back -;
My mom walked in and was just staring at me like wtf you doing?
That's my biggest fear
Just say you were doing vocal warmups..
Or say what I just said to my sister- ‘You see my beloved Sister(4 U, say mother).. I’m doing something beyond your comprehension. Sister(mother), I warn you, stand back or hide in your room in the closet, face to the wall, for the safety of your life if you want to keep it.’ Like.. just freak her out more lol- XD..
Or say you’re summoning a demon that works to-
@@TaylorMLPFIDAU that was beautiful
I very much appreciate that you put most, if not all of what you are saying in the description. I’m fairly hard of hearing, and it’s great that there’s another way for me to understand what you’re doing.
Yeah, I can't hear the S either!
If you go to the options (3 dots on mobile) you can turn on closed captions. They’re pretty accurate
I had a bad experience once when I sang for the first time infront of people (some bullies I was singing with pushed me so I sang off key and at least 100 + people laughed at me) and after that, I got a huge anxiety for singing. Every time I try to sing, my voice stops and I start shaking. Im terrified someone hears me so if I manage to sing, I sing low and starts shaking if I sing to loud. Its very depressing.. cuz I really enjoyed singing. I miss it.. but yeh- I can't.
Hope you're okay♡
I had a similar experience Aurora, trust me the self doubt definitely starts setting in afterwards ..but you have to make it your job to surpass ALL that self doubt and FORCE yourself to be better!! It helps if you go out to your car or even your closet to not feel embarrassed or like you have to lower your voice at all!! Envision the singer you want to be/ envision the voice you want yourself to have and just GO‼️ even if it takes months to a year it’ll be one of the best things you ever did . LOOK UP❣️
You can!! Screw them! This is your life and you deserve the happiness singing brings you. Do it anyway bby. ❤️
Same!!
Something similar happened to me. Remember you have a unique voice because no one can do what you do. You have musicality, you knew enough to know the pressure made you sing off key. Take back your voice. I'm sure the more you discover and proclaim it, how beautiful it is. 🤟🙃🖤🙏
throughout quarentine, my singing voice died. I got to a new school and joined the advanced choir, however have not succesfully sung anything yet. I have been trying and trying to gain what I had back, but I really thought my voice was gone. until thins video. Thank you so much, I believe I can finally sing again.
This is the exact reason im here as well. I hope it helps both you and me lol
@@wolfe8427 damn, we're living the same life huh... at least i'm not alone
No physical reason why it shouldnt get back to where it was. Just keep working at it and remember that these things can be more in your head than in your voice…BELIEVE you can do it (you know you can because you e done it in the past so that helps) and don’t give a shit about anyone who might be in earshot…if everyone cared about how they sounded when practicing an instrument then no one would ever get good at anything. Confidence is key I’ve found
I love the silliness, I can feel the difference in vocal strain when I just let myself be silly
I rarely get the space to sing as much as I want to, so my singing time is precious, and it helps my depression immensely. This warm up made that time so much better. I have tried other warm ups before and they just haven't done what I needed it to, but this made so much sense, and made me able to see how wide my range actually is. Thank you so much, this was incredible.
Her: Abs should be really feeling it
me: Raises hand" Miss I don't has abs ;(
Hey! So what helped me is having a mind to muscle connection, meaning thinking about it coming from your core WHILE you touch your core. Just keep practicing Bc if this is your first time doing it or even first couple of times it’s normal that you may be doing it wrong but with daily practice you should notice the difference :D hope this helps
I love this, I hope my neighbors don’t mind haha thank you so much :)
Ahh me
Me too. I close all windows before doing the 10 min vocal exercise.
I swear I looked away for 2.3 seconds and there was magically a piano 😂😂 great video btw, my first time doing warm ups and I definitely feel a difference
Yes the athletic approach to the center of your body. Yessss. This woman is the best vocal teacher I’ve seen on the tube.
Omg thank. I needed this, I can’t even belt no more since quarantine and my singing voice ain’t the same😭
I started doing that "miam miam" exercise, and my cat looked at me as she was understanding my "meows"! Hahaha
Omg my cat ran up to me, head sideways like "what the f did you just sat to me?!!" 😅
My neighbours loved my singing so much that they throw rocks at my window and break it only to listen to me more clearly😚😚
Thank you for incorporating reason, technique, and knowledge into the warm up as well instead of just sayin “do this” “follow me” and we don’t know why or where to focus our energy. 🤷🏿♀️
Wonderful job Madeleine, I pay way to much money for lessions, when your lessions are so much more valuable. Thank you so much for my improvements and for lettting me be a part of your musical world. Keep up the good work, and dont stop making these videos, because they are suuper helpful and you are a great teacher!
*lesson 😂
I sound like an evil witch practicing her spells 🤦🏾♀️
Same tho
That means you're doing it right! Witch's cackle sound
You’re on the right track
Hahaha! Me too. That’s got its own power though. 🧙🏻♀️
Welcome to the club 😂❤
I am slowly freaking out! She said Bye loves at the end of the video. That's my thing too.
Love to see you here, Mrs. Georgina. 🙏🖤🙃🤟
What
Lots of love to you, Georgina.
Isn't it great this lady doesn't put loads of ads in the middle to ruin the video.......... a true professional, don't you think! 😉
twinsies? lol
glad I found you.
G O O D G O O D G O O D.
Love how she starts bouncing on the trills at 6:38
Little things such as those (she does a lot of it) make it such a pleasure and joy to watch her do her thing 💚
Loves.
You're the best vocal coach i've ever seen and thank so much for putting your lessons out for fre
I've tried other vocal exercises and noooonnneeee have given me such a big result within its duration. You just earned a new subscriber:)
Thank you Madeleine. Another fun video. Your ability to explain, demonstrate, and encourage is inspiring. I bookmarked this one. I love it...
Just woke up and saw this! Great warm up for the morning!😀
Thank you Madeleine! This is a wonderful exercise!
Awesome, love your approach to sound. Thank you
The nyum , nyum, part reminds me of The Sims 🤣 Seriously, though very cool thank you 🙌🏻👏🏻
Great warm. I love that you EXPLAIN why we are doing and what are the expected effects.
Ik this is an old comment but SAME! It helps so much! Videos where they just show exercises and don't explain why we're doing them are unhelpful to me because I don't know what I should be focusing on when doing the exercise.
What a great way to start my day. Thanks Madeleine
Thank you so much for doing these.
i love this vocal exercise its fun and if i could and i would give it 5 stars, Madeleine your a great vocal teacher
Thanks Madeleine for some reason the word “yum” REALLY works for me and I’m singing better already!! I’m starting to memorize the feeling of controlling good air pressure with that word!
Was so helpful and FUN - thank you, Madeleine!!!
Absolutely Loved this!
I love your personality! It feels comfortable to learn from you. I am excited to improve my voice!
Eu sou do Brazil, excelente aula parabéns...
Absolutely love your playful warm-up. Comming back to practice everyday!

Thank you for your great attitude and exercises
Can you hold the exercises longer, say 30-45 seconds, for an even more opening warm up? Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful video Madeleine!!! Your support has come at the perfect time for my healing voice journey🙏🏽❤️🌱
I sing at least an hour daily and this video is a wonderful way to warm up. I add variety based off what I’m practicing in my time but this is so right on target 🎯 and helpful. My favorite teacher online is you Madeline ❤️
This was wonderful! I loved the delivery of the lesson- it was fun, fresh and informative! Thank you!
You are simply amazing!
According to my warm-up playlist, this is my 226th time using this video!!
When you said, "Nyum yum yum yum" I said 🥺🥺🥺
I enjoyed your vocal warm up. Thank you!
Loved this! Could feel an immediate difference after the warm up!
Thank you! This is super helpful.
:)
Thank you so much.., ❤️
You are so fun and lovely and helpful. Thank you so much.🙏
Very good! VERY helpful. Thank you so much Madeleine.
"Now lets get some tone in this mother.." HA love it
I couldn't take myself seriously when i looked in the mirror, but the warm-up was really good tho XD
so lovely lesson
Always need a "quick" warm up... warmth & tone! Love it. Great warm up. Thanks!
Dear Madeleine!
I wanted to ask if it would be possible to do a video on classical singing or classic exercises to develop this voicetype too? Would be very great! Love your videos! Best wishes!
lol it’s 9:37 for me right now but thank you for the upload ! i’ve been looking for some good youtube warmups and i know u won’t disappoint ! love u girl have a nice night .
You are brilliant! WOW! Thanks
You are a great teacher, I love how you make it so easy to understand and how great your coaching is, I think you are the best!!
That is like the greatest , most epic independent intro I have ever seen in CZcams. My gosh what an intro!!!!
Ikr!
Dang it I’m still pushing on my throat during the yums! After I got done with them my throat hurt! I don’t know how to not push there!
WOW! You are an amazing, gifted teacher!! Thank you!!
Your lessons are insightful and so much fun! Thank you! 💕
This video was amazing! Who else kept laughing while trying to do the "yum" exercise? lol
I think the lip roll is more important but i rlly cant do it properly
Thank you Madeleine! Great exercises!
You're amazing, Madeleine! Thx a lot
what do you do when you run out of puff for the lip/tongue trill? mine stops after a couple seonds so end up just focussing on trying to do it.. squeezing cheeks does not help 😭 I recently started a thirty day manifesting a better singing voice in 30 days on my channel and on day 6.. this would be really helpful 💙
IiKkRr sameee problem, I can't even do the tongue trill I've never been able to but w lip trill, same
Put one finger on each side of your lips, and *GENTLY* press inwards. This should make the sound a bit easier to start. You can leave your fingers there as much as you need. Eventually you won't need them :)
I sometimes struggle with the same thing. It would often happen in chorus class. I personally feel like practice is what really helps and training your diaphragm.
You need to work on breath distribution. Maybe try a breathing excerciser. I got one on Amazon for $50. Works on ex and inhale.
Also “catch breaths” might help you pack in air for a long line
"Your abs should be really feeling it"
What about potatoes like me 😭
So awesome! Enjoyed the warm ups before I go for my voice coach lessons, Thank you .
This has helped me so much! Thank you thank you!
"peachy keen fine with me" xo love it! thx
I appreciate her work, but sis spoke more than we did any actual exercises
It's not about doing them blindingly. You have to understand the mechanics of it.
Thank you so much, I love your fly keyboard!
Thanks you, Ms. Madeleine!
"We're going to add tone to this..."
*Literally whips keyboard from nowhere*
Me: oh dang.
Me: things just got real
But love this workout!!
Friends: how did you get those abs?
Me: singing
Friends: ummm...
So happy to have discovered this wonderful vocal warm up. Precisely what I needed. Thank you Madeleine! You are a fantastic teacher.
Thank-you so much Madeleine for your video! This is really fun!
Bloop
shouldn't the explanations be only at the beginning, or give timestamps fo skip? this is not rewatch friendly
Fantastic advise .thanks for the way of yours thats so meaningful
Loved it! Your warm ups really works on my voice
