Voice Exercise - Extoning

I realized there may be others who are not familiar with Extoning. Or how to Extone. It's a term used by voice therapists which means to make a sound while breathing out.

It's like doing the one in the picture but with CLOSED MOUTH while letting the hum or sound go out.

The partner of Extoning would be Intoning. Which is making sound while breathing in. That comes later on in the voice exercise program.

Voice Teacher Alma Vajas would be a good instructor who can teach the basics of Extoning/Intoning and how to do them properly. I didn't learn from Alma, though. I learned from my online mentor who is her student. And the Smolover book also has a CD where you can hear the audio demonstration.

All the best - to all SD patients!
