In today’s episode, BAST trainer and founder, Line Hilton, returns to discuss the best vocal exercises for sick voices. Listen in to discover the differences between a sick voice and a well one. Line also explores the challenges of working with a student who is feeling below par, or post-operative.

KEY MOMENTS

‘It's always good to have a second pair of ears’

‘’Intrinsic muscles are quite deep, and so you don't necessarily realise one of those deeper muscles is being hyper contracted and overworking’

‘I'll just gradually start to increase the range and get more challenging’ 

‘I’m always just checking in'
