Chest and Head Voice Warmup

If you’re brand-new to singing, even a warmup for beginners can move a little too fast, and require skills you might not have. Hi, I’m Camille with 30 Day Singer, and this is an easy warmup for total beginners, focused on accessing chest voice and head voice.

First, say hello to your chest voice by speaking on-pitch. Can you keep this sound just as strong as your speaking voice? Add a little sustain on this pattern. We’re still in a strong chest voice!

Now, wake up your head voice with a high-pitched, excited “woohoo sound.” And final exercise: a hollow cuckoo-clock sound on a pattern.

Use this warmup until you’re comfortable accessing your chest and head voice separately.
