    Every coach (musical, athletic, professional, fitness, life, etc.) should be required to watch how Sam Johnson gives constructive feedback. The man is the master of identifying areas that can improve without hurting confidence. He gives solid criticism without tearing people down. Uplifting professional = Sam Johnson

    Wow, I gotta agree. When he was going really big and heavy (so much so that you think his voice might crack) just to fall into that soft, pretty note.
    That definitely takes a good bit of control over your voice. I’ll pay more mind to my transitions from “small to big” voices when singing now!

      @@margicates553 Pink is singing during her aerials, and is singing very well!! Perhaps, you're thinking of Britney who never sings live...and barely sings on her CDs either.
      Sam's touched upon the fact that some performers can sing and dance, and it doesn't impact their vocal abilities. It's about breath control and keeping the proper pressure on the air stream going through the vocal chords. Broadway singers do it every day. Heck, marching band kids do it too. Moving, almost running, and still being able to play their instruments in tune (well, most of the time).
      Here is that Try performance at the 2012 AMA's:

    Someone commented below that, "Every coach (musical, athletic, professional, fitness, life, etc.) should be required to watch how Sam Johnson gives constructive feedback." As his student for the past few months, I concur. Sam is a fabulous voice coach, very mature for his age, and understands singing dynamics at a deep level. In studying with him, it's not just my voice that got better, I was also able to open up my emotional range and degree of personal expression

    As your usual offering, Sam, I learned so much to apply to my own singing. Specifically, when you described the “quiet flip” of his voice from chest to head (hope I got that right) I sat and practiced it myself while watching the video. It was super helpful to “know how it feels” as you are always iterating. Love ❤️ always
