Course 21 is now live!

It's Wednesday and how better to spend the rest of your work week than diving into some new EVI Now content! Course 21 "Improving Endurance" is now available for our EVI Now subscribers offering six (6) new lessons with a run time of 37 minutes and 15 seconds.

Course objectives for "Improving Endurance" include: 1) Define endurance in a vocal context 2) Apply what we've learned about air pressure and breathing to your vocal routine 3) Incorporate new exercises into your practice

We recommend that you don't start this course until you have completed Course 20 "Complete Breathing" and started implementing those exercises into your regular routine since air management plays a significant role in improving overall endurance. We also recommend that you are at a stage in your vocal journey where you can activate distortion smoothly and without significant effort before you set your sights on working on endurance training.

Course 20 is now live!

We have touched on breathing in the past but in this course, we are really going to dive into all the ways that breathing makes up the foundations for everything that you do as a vocalist.

In this course, David will walk you through multiple different exercises that will help you feel air pressure, increase lung capacity and the efficiency at which you are taking in air. These are exercises that you should practice regularly no matter how experienced you are.

Objectives for this course include: 1) Review the importance of proper breathing when vocalizing 2) Develop an understanding of air pressure 3) Practice exercises for efficient and effective breathing 4) Apply these breathing techniques to your vocal practice.
