Belting Warm-Up - How to Warmup Your Singing Belt 

I have been STRUGGLING with my belts for the longest time. I know I have the range but I never knew how to properly use it without feeling tight and strained. This was AMAZING it totally changed the game

I swear the like button just doesn't feel enough for your videos! I wanna give likes, hearts, applause, hugs, everything! You are such a great teacher! You always explain it thorough enough for so many different minds to comprehend efficiently. Thank you so much for unselfishly being such a blessing to me personally. I thank God for you and I pray for an abundance of favor and blessings in your life! You are very much appreciated Madeleine 💙

The “yeah’s” is what one of my teachers used call “singing thru the mask”, meaning the sinus cavity, and you can literally feel it buzz. When you add in the AH’s she would tell me to imagine the sound coming thru my top teeth. This is a great description of exactly that! Love it!

I finally felt pressure without strain! My gosh took forever!

I've used this video so many times to warm up, it's so fantastic! Thank you!

Good timing. I was just thinking about doing a vocal warmup

I have had several voice teachers and I must say you are so good and easy to understand and follow! I love your workouts! I don't have alot of extra time so having your quick workouts is so helpful!

Thanks for another great teaching, Madeleine. Have been practicing the video from our first lesson, and can see marked improvements!

Thank you Madeleine! so excited:)

I wish I could hit that like button over and over again! This exercise has helped me sooooo much, that I’ve included it in my practice. Thank you so much Madeleine for your great work. 💜

I am so grateful to find you!!! Yes this helps me so much!!!

This is so enlightening! Added a new sound to my voice right away,

I really love these exercises that just glide all over and that require good breath work. Really great execises, thank you!!

This is the BEST belting explanation and exercises I’ve ever seen! Thank you so much this video changed my life.

This helped me so much thank you!! I really love you as a teacher

THE INTRO IS GIVING!! U LOOK AWESOME! Love ur videos :)

Thank you for doing this topic.

Thank you for this warmup. This is a great tool for my students too. I crushed it.

Magnificent ending. Thank you so much ❤

Very helpful! Thank you so much!❤️

very innovative, effective, and challenging! You're awesome!

you are so engaging! and wow, FINALLY, I KNOW HOW TO BELT PROPERLY!!! this is amazing. thank you so much.

Thankx for sharing this type of video for warm up ...really great experience 👍

WHOA GIRL THAT INTRO!!!! Good for you!

Hey Madeleine! Love your style of teaching. I have been watching all of your lessons starting from the oldest and I have been learning a lot. I was hoping you could do a video on how to growl(the kind of growling in your "If it Hadn't Been for Love" video). There's a lot of misinformation across platforms on how to do this and trying it out by myself feels risky cause I know if it's not done the right way, it can damage the voice. Looking forward to it

Thanks Madeleine! You're an excellent teacher. It's easy to visualize what you're explaining. New sub here!

Love it! Thank you so much ❤

Wow, haven’t been in your channel in a while and I looooved your intro 🔥🔥🔥

I love your teaching and positiveness.. thanks a lot

Hello madeline! Thank you for this video. It is my warm up before I sing and it's perfect. I just wanted to tell you that. Thank you very much

This helps me so much! Before I think I was belting the wrong way and I could’ve hurt my vocal chords, but this helped A LOT!

another phenomenal video. So precise So helpful 🙏❤

Ms. Madeleine, you do a fantastic job of describing why 'this or that' is done. I had taken classic voice training years ago, based on the same principles of singing, but not as thorough. Thx. little pixie :)

Love your way of teaching

Marvellous. Thank you

Love the intro...love yoooouuu.

Thank you so much! This really helps break down some things for my students easier! :)

Yes! You're amazing, thank you so much for making this Madeleine

I used to belt consistently for years then I started singing much more softly the past few years and recently I've been trying to get back to belting like I used to and trying to remember how to belt "properly" and how it's suppose to feel (not hurt or feel strained) and I have been struggling. You explain everything SO well and I already feel everything (in my throat, head, chest) coming back - the exercises are easy to follow and I already feel such a huge difference and more control. Thank you SO much! I'm excited to get back in the studio now and feeling much more confident with my approach using your techniques - you are amazing! ❤‍🔥✨

WHAT A GREAT TEACHER, I AM A VOICE TEACHER BUT YOU TEACH IN A GREAT WAY I WILL SEND MY STUDENTS TO WATCH YOUR VIDEOS

Thanks a lot for a such beautiful and strong lesson ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Happy to have found your channel!

Thank you so much this was so helpful

Thankyou for sharing it's really helpful 💗💗💗

Love your videos! 😍

so well explained

This is great, thanks! :)

Thank you, I'm actually learning from you❤

I really felt like lift-off!! It was brilliant 👏🏻

Love your intro!!!💜

Your introduction is FANTASTIC !!!

Thank you it really me help out to learn to percive the pressure.

Good stuff!

This helps so so so much!!! Would love to see a video that connects to this (maybe exercises to help with incorporating actual melodies and words…?)

THANK YOUUUU!!!! 🙏🏻😊♥️ 🙌🏼👑👑

I really enjoy your videos. I studied under a great teacher Sue Harmon. Your videos take me back to her lessons. They aren't pretty arpeggios but sounds ,usually ugly, and feeling the voice placement. All my singing friends look at me crazy when I do my warm ups. But they work. Also I was a tuba player turned vocalist. I have always pressurized and run out of air fast because that is what happens when playing tuba. I need to find an in-between for breath control for long phrases. I'd love any advice. The hardest song for breath control I ever did was "Spossa son Disprezzata" attributed to Vivaldi. It was elen measures at a medium speed. It was hit and miss. Keep up the healthy singing advice. Love it!

Thank YOU VERY much!

Thank you!

OMG UR BACK QUEEEEN SLAY !!!!!!

Great one my teacher thought me to do a siren sound to activate them !!

what an amazing intro😮

i need this teacher in my life! i

THANK YOU!!!!

Thank you for keeping the energy for both of us. My focus needs more focus. Until next time. :)

I love the new intro! It is so fitting!

THANX ONE MORE TIME!! ❤

I love your new hairstyle!!

Would be cool to have an entire video on soft and hard palates in each register 💜💜like the differences for each

Wow!!! Cool!!!!!

Viva 🎉is the best thing about singing 😊

Finally finished the video! Very nice. Thank you.

Thanks!

you are the bestttttttt

Hey Madeleine! I was enjoying some past videos you've got on doing the "Alien voice" for belting. I'm curious did you end up retiring those exercises or do you still recommend them? Thank you so much

1/21: Done. 2/21: Done. 3/21: X. 4/21: Was doing it too late (22:05), but still did it all.

So much useful content. I'm still singing "yeeeeaaast". Wait for meee

Dear Madeleine! What table do you have for your Piano? Is amazing! I need it for my piano in the middle of my kitchen🙏🤩

HI Madeleine, to my understanding, we need to have a full support from the diaphragm that generate compressed air to vibrate the vocal cord for a clean, projected sound. would you please clarify and explain how it is different from this practice you are teaching us to belt? You are emphasizing the highly pressurized air when belting. Thanks a lot.

Bravissima

i used to be a vocal teacher for kids and the chipmunk made me fart every time. never had that happen before lol

Your warm up is amazing!! But ihave question, what if my voice shaking when it’s high note ? Should i keep practicing this to make it more stable?

With the super horizontal mouth position/teeth almost shut (I’m classically trained so this feels foreign to me!), how do you avoid tension in the neck? Perhaps my neck is just tight, but I find when I do this position it creates tension down there and it feels like my larynx is fighting to rise despite supporting well. Is there anything I am doing wrong with this ?

Quick question, do I have to do this all in my chest voice???

I can't help but "distort" my voice when doing the YEAA exercises... any tip please? It happens more often when changing from YE to A

I have never been to a vid this early

I would LOVE LOVE see a video on how to properly project over a band without shouting. Is there a brand of microphone that helps ??? This is sooooo frustrating when working with sound people. Ugh…

This was really helpful! The last exercise kinda makes my throat tickle, though - am I doing it wrong?

what just happened? thank you wow ❤how? thank you thank you

W O W.

Is my throat supposed to hurt a little? And I get a tickling in my throat which makes me cough?

❤❤❤❤

How did you even conceive this? Gonna work on this! Thanks!!!

shit thats so easy.... but very effect thank you soo sooo ~ 🎤muuuuuuuch! p.s I can belt that out now because of you
