Question:
I have taken voice lessons before and have been told by my instructor that my voice is not very strong, but is pretty. I was wondering: will my voice get stronger as I learn to make my diaphragm stronger, learn the correct breathing etc., and as I practice more? or will it always stay the same?
Answer:
First, be certain your voice is healthy and that you have no other health problems causing the weakness; you can see a doctor if you aren’t sure. Then, if the suggestions your teacher makes are functionally efficient and the practice you are doing is mindful, your voice will definitely strengthen. Give the lessons time and be diligent. If, after a while, lessons aren’t helping, try a new teacher with a different approach. No technique works for everyone and you might have to try a few before you get the results you want. Good luck!
