Good Singing Posture 101. Posted by Kris on Jan 31st, 2010 3 comments. Yes, I just did this to test this out again too – scary, no confidence, not good. Now head back to the mirror and get into good singing posture – tall, upright, head and neck in alignment, hands by your sides, plenty of room to breathe. Wow – what a difference! Aim to sing with this posture all the time. Can I receive what they are singing and let the Lord minister the words of the song to me? A quick note on neck and head alignment t...

Posted by Kris on Aug 28th, 2009 5 comments. So before I ever jump into topics like breathing, tone, singing louder, enunciation, etc. let’s look at a much more basic question, “Why do we sing? 8221; Well, I sing because I’m happy – ok, that sounds like a song!
