What are some simple exercises i can do on the go to improve my singing?

Question

I need anything you've got, but please explain the exercise in detail.

Answer 1

the raspberry is a good exercise- you learn very quickly that if the breath isn't moving, you're not making any sound, and that your tongue won't move. This helps coordinate three basic elements of good singing: breathing, relaxed tongue, mouth position. An alternative is to use only your lips and be a motorboat. ( My sisters and I used to do this to make fun of my Dad's little old VW beetle for gear changes when we were kids)
Make sure your molars are not touching, and that your tongue is quiet and out of the way. If you start to sputter and the motion stops, feel how your stomach and back muscles have either gone tight on you, or have given up their intense feeling of activity. The action of those muscles is what propels the air up and out of lungs, to be used as fuel for sound by the vocal cords. If the motor isn't running, the gear box can't do it alone!
Humming is also a good exercise, but keep your molars apart, and don't press down into your lips- let them stay just barely together. If you gradually add space to the inside of your mouth ( as if you had an egg in there) the sound will stay off your lips and travel along the ridge of your nose, sometimes, but not always, ending between your eyebrows. This results in a sound that doesn't get interrupted by the tissues of your lips. If you go from humming in that way to actually opening your mouth and keeping up that same position, you will find it helps a great deal in getting out a good round sound without any strain in your throat. Anything you can discover about your body in terms of breathing and breath control will be enormously useful.

Answer 2

One important thing to train yourself to do is breath control while singing. My voice professors LOVE giving students exercises involving blowing a raspberry (where you have your tongue between your lips, as you exhale, and use your breath to make a motorboat sound). You could try doing a basic scale, ascending and descending, all on a raspberry. Or you can shorten it a bit by doing a 5 note descending scale (starting on the fifth note of the scale [G, if you're in C major, for example] and then going down to the first note) on a raspberry.

Answer 3

the scales - do re mi... and then back down again backwards while you're breakdancing to the electric boogaloo

Answer 4

work on breathing exercises (deep breaths, from your stomach/diaphram we do this in chior all the time it works.)
