Look After It
Vocal health
What you'll be able to say
I assembled a short warm-up with rests and wrote the warning signs that would make me stop.
Lessons
- 1.Hydration, Humidity, and Why Whispering Hurts
5 min · Whispering is on the harmful list. So is talking over noise. Neither is obvious.
- 2.Build Your Own Warm-Up
8 min · Assemble a routine from the drills you already own, ordered correctly.
- 3.Self-Check: Warm-Up and Stop Plan
6 min · assembled a short warm-up with rests and wrote the warning signs that would make me stop. This is a listening and reflection check.
Where to practise
Suede Sing measures part of this: how many vocal fold cycles a session used. It measures load, and there is no published safe ceiling to compare it with. The number is evidence for the room's task, not a pass for the lesson; the self-check is still yours.

Practice material
The exercises and songs play synthesized reference pitches: they supply the notes, not a recording of a singer demonstrating a technique. Record your takes in the recorder.

Work in a comfortable range and volume. Stop for pain, burning, sudden hoarseness, loss of range or a change in your speaking voice. These lessons teach practice decisions and stop rules; they don't diagnose or treat anything, and pitch readings do not assess vocal health. Persistent symptoms belong with a qualified clinician, not another attempt.
