Description: Here are a few of my favorite initial warm-up exercises to find a mix belt sound. This is super helpful for trying to blend the break between registers and also to find a closed vocal cord position with balanced air pressure. Take this as low or as high as your voice allows, play around, and have fun with it!

I cannot recommend Bridget enough, three lessons and i'm already singing way better than when I started. She' s very good at explaining the whys and I love that she gives clear, easy instructions. Would highly recommend!

Bridget taught my daughters years ago as young child. It was a great investment and if she is still teaching, I highly recommend her. She is so talented and an excellent teacher.

Professional and knowledgeable, but also very pleasant and light-hearted. She's great at meeting you where you are skill level wise and working with your goals, and is excellent at communicating. I would highly recommend her.

Bridget is just a great person to work with and very professional. Clear direct instructions to help my daughter reach her full potential. We appreciate and thank you very much for all you do!

Bridget is a wonderfully kind and patient teacher. She is generous and skillful. My singing journey continues and is inspired under her guidance!

Bridget is an amazing instructor! I have worked with her for several months and feel I have grown a ton! I would say the besides being a great and knowledgeable instructor, is the environment she creates to feel acknowledged and creative in helping me with my goals.

Bridget is an amazing vocalist and teacher. She is patient and encouraging. I learn something new each lesson.

Our daughter has worked with Bridget for the entire school year and loved it!  She is developing her technique and confidence with each lesson.  We have enjoyed the online format as it aligns nicely with other school and social commitments.  Thank you, thank you Bridget for all you've done to help our girl!!!

Hello! Here are a few of my favorite exercises that I use as a professional opera singer to release Jaw, Neck, and Tongue tension before I sing. Sometimes life is stressful and we begin to carry our tension in our upper body, face, and even our tongue. This tension will interfere with our ability to make easy, clear, and beautiful sounds and I'm here to help you prevent that! I hope you found this video helpful and enjoy adding these facial massages to your warm-up routine!
