Steps:
- Alternate between voice on and voice off while blowing bubbles Keeping the bubbles going continuously even while switching from voice to no voice
- Next, while keeping the voice on, start gliding up and down your pitch range. Keep the bubbles continuous throughout
- Then lift the straw right above water and keep the ripples the same while moving up and down pitch range
- Then, take the straw out of the water and hold in front of your mouth. Keep lips rounded and air blowing into the straw (from a distance) and practice gliding up and down pitch range. Keep the air flow continuous and steady throughout your high and low notes
Lip Flutters: Do these daily - preferably in the morning (showering, making coffee/breakfast, making bed, etc.) Here’s a good video on how to do the flutters: https://youtu.be/Pt_grtSTfAg
