Cheers etan I'll try the links. I've started working on my breathing problems. As for diaphragm we've practiced with my coach some very relaxed shouts, paying attention to the behaviour of diaphragm and their quality, sort of like in singing, whether they aree not from the throat and without tension coming from anywhere. Make sure words are short and include open vowels, with me words like wah, bah, pah,or even bravo work perfect. My coach claims that the way you speak has a lot to do with the way you talk . From speaking to singing that's what she claims and I'm gradually making progress that I've never expected I was able to make. If I find some interesting li9nks on breath support and management I'll put them here.

I found this last night from the links at the site and found it quite helpful. Now that I read your description of the breathing, I know I don't do reverse breathing, but I haven't been using my diaphragm properly either. I am using more of my abdominal muscles then necessary and they are too tense. The article does speak about the reverse breathing, "sucking in your tummy when you inhale, locks everything in place, so the diaphragm can't come down. http://www.voicelesson.com/html/lessons/free_lessons_08.htm. http://www.voicelesson.com/html/lessons/free_lessons_14.htm Tomasz Bilau <bilaut@w...> wrote:Hi Deborah and Everyone! It was me who mentioned the problem of wrong breathing or as Deborah called it reverse breathing. I've worked out that I have the same problem one of the singers had tha Deborah described. I let them stomach in when breathing in and bulge out when exhaling. Strange but true, but I tend to do so only when standin upright not lying down . The same happens when I sing. I wonder if Deborah or anyone could direct me to sume helpful soures on the Net concerning the problem or at least goive me advice how to kill this old habit of mine. Thanks
