Why We Should Sing "Athletically"

Because when you get out of bed in the morning, you don't wonder if you'll be able to walk, do you?

So why should you get out of bed and wonder if you'll be able to sing?

Athletic singers put the body in charge of the voice.

If you can walk, you can sing.

Unathletic singers allow the voice to be in charge of everything.

That's why they always have to drink this, gargle this, swallow this...

It's counter-intuitive.

Let the body lead the voice.

The voice will follow.

(The voice has no choice!)
