Who else loves to sing along with Hocus Pocus? 🧙‍♀️🎃🎙️ How about the “bye bye” at the very end of I Put a Spell On You? 👋🪄
Sometimes I hear singers try to do a full-on belt there, but that often causes strain, cracking, poor support.
How do we fix it? Developing the mix!
The secret to unlocking an effortless mix isn’t pushing harder—it’s activating your pharynx (the back of your throat!) and using components of a vocal technique called Voce di Strega (Witch Voice!) 🧹✨
By mimicking a sharp Winifred cackle on a “Hee” or “Heh,” vocal folds come completely together safely—bypassing throat tension so you can access your mix belt without the strain!
Do this exercise everyday to develop that muscle memory and to be able to apply it to any song!
👀 Looking for some help accessing your mix, or adjusting something else in your internal soundboard?
Check out my new On-Demand Singing Program, where you get professional, 1-on-1 vocal diagnostics straight to your smartphone.
How does it work?
Send me a video of your favorite songs anytime, from anywhere. I’ll analyze your video, help you fine-tune your internal soundboard, and send back custom, personal voice exercises tailored to your exact problem areas!

Got breathiness? 🗣️🎤🎶 Let’s fix it! 🛠️
If your middle schooler, high schooler, or you are trying to get more power behind your singing, but there’s air escaping, a whispery tone, or your running out of breath quickly, check this out!
A little piece of vocal health knowledge—a thin, airy, or breathy tone is a common part of the changing adolescent singing voice. As teenagers grow, their vocal folds are physically elongating, and the surrounding laryngeal muscles are learning how to adapt. Because of this natural development shift, young singers often sub-consciously push extra air pressure through their folds, which diminishes their vocal stamina and causes vocal strain!
Watch how Gemma and I find a fix for this!
By using a quick resistance tool like the "creaky door" 🚪 vocal fry exercise, we gently show the vocal folds how to come cleanly together without force. The result? That thin whisper instantly transforms into a thick, solid, ringing pop mix—fully connected and no more air leaks!
Want to learn more about your voice and how to use these tools? Join our studio family!
Message me for current openings or visit the link in the comments for our flexible On-Demand Singing! Your student can send quick practice clips straight from home, and I send these exact custom video course-corrections straight to their smartphone—whenever and wherever!
Happy singing! 🎶 🎤 ❤️
