Breathing technique

So, I hope you already understood how to breathe properly. Try to breathe so constantly, controlling your conscious, and with time you will breathe so constantly on the machine.

Further breathing exercises will help consolidate the skills developed and develop the diaphragmatic muscle, which is very important in the formation of the voice tone.

Exercises for breathing techniques are divided into two types: the exercises of the delayed breathing and Strelnikova gymnastics.

Hold breathing exercises for voice development

The starting position for delayed breathing (ZD) is the legs shoulder-width apart, the knees are slightly bent, the body is free and straight. At the sound of pf-fff, all the air is blown out of the mouth slowly through the mouth (a deflated ball). When you exhale should form a barrier, that is, you strain your abdominal muscles to overcome the resistance of the outgoing air. Then we take a sharp deep breath through the nose and the same sharp and full breath through the mouth to the end - so that you do not have any air at all. We do not inhale, we tightened the press and in this “airless” we do a physical exercise. When we start to rest it is important to remember that inhale is always through the nose, exhale is always through the mouth, do not lift the shoulders, breathe the stomach. Before each exercise, the exhalation technique is the same, only the physical exercises themselves are different, and they are done with held breath.

Here are the exercises.

1. Z.D. - “Wings (with turns)”. Legs shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, body free and straight. At the sound of pf-fff slowly through the mouth we blow all the air out of ourselves, then take a sharp deep breath through the nose and the same sharp and full exhalation through the mouth. We hold in this position and begin to do physical exercises like on physical education - waving your arms from the chest to the sides with the turns of the body. On the “one-two” turn of the body to the left, the arms are bent in elbows, on the “three-four” arms we extend to the end as far as possible. Then the same way. We do it until we can no longer breathe. Now we stop, breathe through the nose, exhale through the mouth, make sure that the breathing takes place by the stomach, the chest and shoulders are motionless.

2. Z.D. - "Shoulders" - circular movements of the shoulders. On delayed breathing, we make circular movements with our shoulders until there is not enough air at all. When you inhale again, watch your stomach

3. Z.D. - “Cams + wrists” - arms are extended forward, cams are strongly compressed, then arms to the sides, we pull wrists up. Keep the press and breathing, do not breathe at all. Remember that there should be no air in the lungs at all and the press should be pulled up. This exercise is also useful in that it releases muscle clamps.

4. Z.D. - "Diagonal". When you exhale and hold your breath, we pull the right hand into the upper left corner, we stretch, stretch so that the right arm and right leg are like a diagonal. Left reference. Then the same way. Do not breathe during exercise!

5. Z.D. "Tilt to the floor." We lean the body down, stretch our arms to the floor until we have enough breath. We return to the original position and rest.

6. Z.D. "Birch" back. Doing exercise birch as in the classroom at the school in physical education, only with a delayed breath.

7. Z.D. Plow (from the position of the birch leg straight legs reach for the head, you can even put them on the floor)

8. Z.D. - “Rozhitsa” - the mouth is open and round, the tip of the tongue stretches forward, the eyes “on the back of the head”.

Exercises for Strelnikovskoy gymnastics.

The starting position for Strelnikovskoy gymnastics (Art.) - feet shoulder-width apart, we take sharp short breaths through the nose (as if something was burnt), the score is always maintained at 8 to 96. 12 eights. In a complex with exercises of the held breath to 48. A breath is made simultaneously with physical action! That is, on the "and-and" we do a physical exercise, accompanied by a sharp inhalation, and we reach the extreme point. At the “time” we return to the starting position with the exhalation. On the “and-and” we reach the extreme point with a sharp inhalation, on the “two” we return back with an exhalation.

Start with a few reps. For example, from 24, then increase to 48 and 96, respectively.

Here are these exercises.

1. Art. - “Ears”. We stand straight, bend the neck and lay our head on the shoulder until it stops sharply. The main thing is not to overdo it and do not hurt the neck, the movements should be comfortable and free. When you dip your head on your shoulder, inhale sharply through your nose with your stomach.

2. Art. - “Turns of the head” We do the same, only turns of the head occur right and left, the body and shoulders are in place. When cornering, catch the eyes of two extreme points, so as not to feel dizzy!

3. Art. - “Small pendulum” - tilts the head back and forth. On each slope a sharp breath. Count silently to 48 or to 96.

4. Art. - “Kitty” - turns back with squats and compression of cams, hips in place, keep the point! We turn the body along the axis to the left, the hips remain in place and together with the turn we squat a bit in the knees. Keep your elbows pressed together. When you turn the case inhale, you should see the feeling of a lock. Repeat turns right and left. We consider the necessary number of repetitions.

5. Art. - “Hug the shoulders.” Hands bent at the elbows, hold them in front of you, as if sitting at a desk (right below, left above). We make sharp movements to meet each other and a sharp breath. We spread our hands, exhale through the mouth, change (right up, left down), repeat the same.

6. Art. - “Pump” - reach to the floor, inhale, straighten as you exhale.

7. Art. - "Rolls" - crouching, we transfer the weight of the body from one foot to the other

8. Art. - “Rock and roll” - crouching, alternately tightening the knees to the opposite shoulder.

Spend every day for 15-20 minutes. After some time you will set your voice for these exercises and develop your natural timbre, feel the power of the voice and hear the natural sound.
