BreathingRx For Voice Teachers - This Page Is Currently Under Development
Dealing with the primary aspects of teaching leaves the vocal instructor precious little time in the lesson to delve into the details of body awareness and its optimal use for singing. Now, through use of the Vocal Breath Support Mastery E-course the teacher does not have to spend any time in studio to help the student integrate this important aspect of singing. Students can increase body awareness, develop maximum breath control/management and solve jaw, tongue and throat tension restrictions using this comprehensive extended online learning platform. As a result, your vocal students will be able to more readily execute instructions, facilitating vocal progress. Some benefits to voice teachers using The Vocal Breath Support Mastery e-course:
added revenue, improved client retention, increased student referrals, improved execution of instruction, faster vocal progress, etc.
Vocal Support Mastery E-course support services include:
1. Voice teacher has free access to the entire course.
2. Unlimited access of the voice teacher to Mr. Flam for questions, clarification of techniques or their effect on the student, feedback or discussing the progress of a student.
3. Complementary demonstrations for students and their guests by Steven Flam within the voice teacher's studio, (at teacher's request).
4. Free technical support for students to access the course.To learn more about the Vocal Breath Support Mastery e-course and support services for the voice teacher you can rsvp to attend the next presentation. The next presentation is scheduled for _________ to attend rsvp with how many people you are in your party to breathingrx@aol.com If you want to see how problems of jaw tongue and throat tension, breath support or body restriction are solved permanently through this work please arrange to bring your student, warmed up and ready to sing, to the presentation by emailing Mr. Flam at breathingrx@aol.com
The exercises in this course are designed to:
- free the appropriate muscles,
- scientifically target train the diaphragm to its maximum capacity,
- teach balance and movement to ideally support the diaphragm and voice,
- solve jaw, tongue and throat tension and
- turn difficult singing circumstances into easy ones using newly developed skills and awareness.
The BreathingRx For Singers System is not a vocal technique but is an approach to mastery of the body and breath for the singer. Applying discoveries about the maximum capability and specific training of the diaphragm made by Carl Stough*, Steven Flam collaborated with Metropolitan Opera Star Atarah Hazzan for over 30 years to develop the BreathingRx for Singers System, upon which The Vocal Breath Support Mastery E-course is based.

* Through Carl Stough's studies, in military hospitals on emphysema patients, the anatomical and scientific discovery of the optimal use and capacity of the diaphragm was born. A new paradigm of human performance was made possible by later application of Mr. Stough's concepts and techniques on US olympic athletes and singers.
