Eric: resist the urge to go to the extreme. me: *slowly switches back to Ariana Grande karaoke page*

When I’m famous I’m thanking you for being my vocal coach 🙏🏽😂🔥🔥🙌🏽

Holy shit... The "z" technique really changed my singing.

I’m a metal vocalist and we use the same tips when it comes to screaming, anyone who’s learning to sing or scream should use this as a guide for healthy breathing techniques. This video was awesome!

I did the "sss" "sss" "sssssss" while on the toilet and it cured my constipation! THANK YOU!

You are so kindddd!! You doing it for free, for us. Thank you so muchhhhhhhhh

By far one of the most helpful teachers EVER on KZfaq. I can't stress enough how invaluable your lessons are, and I didn't realize just how great/advanced your techniques and lessons are until I looked elsewhere and found an IRL voice teacher 😭😭 Thanks so much for everything you do!!!!

Thank you im trying to recover my voice from a bad car accident and a brain injury and this is helping soo much i do have dystonia now which makes it more difficult but damn the difference your series has made is allowing me to regain my voice again and i cannot thank you enough.

So excited you’re back on KZfaq! You’ve helped me so much in the past, and it’s timely since I’m getting back into singing now.

Start off Gently... Me: looking for lyrics to Whitney Houston’s ( I will always love you) And iiiiiiiiiei will always love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, ooooooooooh

The great ones always come back. Super excited to learn more from you.

if i ever pass this audition and get famous, at my grammy award i’ll make sure to thank you first✋🏽

I've only practiced this for two days and I already hear a noticeable difference. Thank you so much.

I swear you and Cheryl Porter will make me the singer that I want to be

I've been in virtual voice lessons for a year now and I haven't been able figure out what support is supposed to feel like in my body. THIS REALLY CHANGED MY SINGING THANK YOU SO MUCH AHHHHH I can't thank the algorithm enough for recommending your videos to me!!

I know this sounds like an exaggeration but you have literally changed my life. I'm a professional Voice Actor and I held sooooo much tension in my throat while performing and singing. I could tell something was "wrong" with my voice despite booking a lot of gigs over the last 8 years of Voice Acting. Today was the first day I felt like I was speaking/singing with MY voice. I worked today and sang and felt ZERO tension in my throat. My voice finally sounds full and powerful and my ability to stay on pitch felt like second nature. Thank you so much for this lesson!

My guy is in fighting mode stance

I'm an opera singer and I try to learn more about pop singing; this is exactly what we are learning in our studies to start singing healthy and over a great period of time! You are really great ☺️😃

I've searched high and low for this answer, I was always holding my power around my throat. And video after video I've tried many techniques with no real result. My throat area would always feel over flexed and felt as you mentioned like being pulled down or heavy soon as I tried to sing with ANY power. I know my muscle memory was to blame but I couldn't find where to redirect my focus. And man you nailed it, I'm just a guy trying to learn for fun and just amazed and happy you posted this. Thank you 🙏🏼

Your videos and your sense of humor are awesome! Thank you for sharing and keeping all of us singing safely :)

Legend Eric. So stoked you're on doing KZfaq again!

Yeay, you're back! You've helped me so much in the past. Thank you.

That was such an invaluable lesson! Thank you! 💙

Thank you Eric! You're a great teacher. Love you!

Addressing the vocal weight in the throat literally just cleared so much of my singing struggle- thank you and God bless you!!

Just watching and trying this. I feel hopeful oddly enough. Thank you for what you do.

Just got back into watching your videos yesterday (for the vocal training series) and you upload today!! Stay blessed man your channel is so helpful 🙌🏾✨

This actually helped me tremendously. Thank you for the video.

You seem like such a caring personable teacher! Glad I found your page.

Need more videos like this bro great job Bro

Dude I've watched tons of singing practise/help vids over the years and yours always seem to fill in the blanks, you know your stuff and how to communicate it, thank you, so much

I didn't have a clue about supporting my voice before this video. This was a great, huge step forward. Thanks so much, Eric.

I found it, the hiss worked for me! I love your teaching methods!💕 I'm so happy to see you back; you look amazing!

I FINALLY GET TO BREATHE! Beautifully explained. You are amazing!

What a thoughtful, intelligent, caring and entertaining coach you are. AND~your voice is absolutely beautiful!

Wow this intro is incredible I've been scouring youtube for a week before I found this. Exactly what I needed: isolating that muscle!! Now I can work it out!! I'm dying to learn more and will definitely be checking out your very reasonably priced series on the matter. Thanks so much!!

Yeees! This video makes me so excited to get that mind muscle connection going and get better at singing! Thank you so much Eric! :D

Since I found your videos my singing has gone from ok to way better, singing every day and find joy in it ❤

So spot on true. So many beginning singers fail to realize the development needed below the glottis before you go near certain kinds of songs.

This is the secret to open up the throat. Thank you so much Eric. You are a blessing to the world ❣

I've been trying to find some good teachers on youtube since forever, and I finally found a really good one. Thanks for the help.

I was really struggling with running out of breath and not using my real voice but these exercises helped almost instantly thank you!!

Thanks Eric! I just learned quite a lot from this video. Much appreciated!

Thank you so much, Eric! This convinced me to finally go out there and work on my voice despite my fear of performing! You're such a blessing

Your videos are the most helpful!

I’m currently taking your phase one master class and I can’t even express how wonderful that class is and how much I’ve learned. There’s so much work and organization and knowledge put into it I just want to say thank you for being you and doing what you do. Singing is everything to me and you’ve helped me be able to do what I love more confidently. Thank you so much for making an impact on my life!

You have no idea how much this helped me. Thank you.

This is so interesting. I'm an experienced singer who was classically trained, but I've never been taught this. And I sure do want to slightly extend the range upwards in my chest voice. Thank you😊

I started singing for my church as the song leader Thank you for your help. Seriously. You’re the best on KZfaq

found a vocal coach, but I think in truth I need to be taught by you. You are always my go to, ever since I was 14... I'm 20 now! Once out of my month agreement, definitely going to head to your website and be in your bootcamp!!

Eric, i have seen three of your videos. I have to say, your videos helps me and i will dedicate myself to working on these techniques. In hope's brings others in the church, and even to the choir. You are awesome!

Thank you .Blessed be Mr.Eric A

I have watched so many breath control, resistance videos on KZfaq and yours are by far the most helpful and most understandable for a newbie like me to follow! Thank you so much !!!

We love you been following you for 10yrs now 🤣❤❤woow how times flies...More Grace and thanks for been you

Brand new idea to me, this was fantastic. Thank you !!

you are so intelligent thank u for teaching this! I can’t wait to start doing it.

I’m here because I’m trying to learn how to sing Demi Lovato’s stone cold, and I’m trying to do it safely for once. This is very helpful, thank you

Your humour and kindness makes your work - a comforting place to be ... At a time when the world is so challenging ... You are doing soul work ...🕊️

I have a lead single going on radio soon and you’ve helped me a ton. I love you so much thank you

I love this video and I am so happy I already can do this things. I sang (ocasionally, for 5 years) but I started to do it more serious and these videos has helped me soooo much! Thank you!!!

Eric, I just (by a miracle) found you on KZfaq. I have studied voice for decades beginning at Baylor University. Studied with many voice coaches through the decades. However, you top the cake! Your awesome explanations are food for my soul. Very grateful for you, especially after coming back after COVID year. Thank you!!!

Thank you so much that is crazy and it works so good for me. You rock Eric and thank you for putting this up i do all of your stuff every day

I seen you come a long way, your Platform is crazy huge bro. Your an inspiration.

Thank you teacher! 💗

Thank you Eric you are the best vocal coach ever, I learn so much from your videos. So well explained.

Thank you so much. You are so talented. I have been preparing to sing a Solo in 2 weeks and actually paused the video practiced it and sang the song and it was almost perfect. Again Thank you!

Your videos are wonderful!

Hello Eric. You are just the best there is. I appreciate you and I have great respect for your work. You are God sent. Thank you.🙏

Eric, you give excellent advice, skills, and explanations. God bless.

I am forever thankful to you mr. You helped me so much!

So glad you're back

Hey coach I love this! The Jedi Master of the voice and everything he says works✊🏾

Perfect explanation, Eric! You are great

Lol , Sally... good one dude! Thx my friend! This is now added to my vocal warm ups and certainly has helped. You are awesome!

Eric, the best thing about these exercises is that we can do them wherever we feel like it, and see actual improvements. Ever since your first course on breathing I be at my desk at work Z'ing and hissing all day. I'll definitely look into this new bootcamp.

Man I’m a saxophone player and it’s exatly where I push it for feeling me more comfortable on my trought...so really appriciated to see you!!! You are amazing! ✌️🙏 so really thank you!!!

Thank you for sharing. Your videos are so helpful!💖

Your explanations and technique are so well described. You are great

Thank you so much! This is the first video I've ever encountered on KZfaq that has actually helped me to understand how a chest voice works, and how I can actually develop it. I feel like most other teachers emphasize ways to develop it that are actually harmful for your voice, and that's coming from past experience.

The video I've been waiting for years. I hit like and subscribed

Wow, you have opened up a new world of knowledge about the voice! Amazing!

Incredible THANK YOU

U have changed my voice with this video. I want to thank you. G#d bless u!!

Thank u for sharing your knowledge with us, all-mighty one! :)

Amazing! His videos needs to be shared.

Dude you have no idea how long (20 years +) i've been looking for someone like you! Straight to the point, none of those beat around the bushs. Thank you , i'm a gonna start working from this and i'll keep you posted. Cheers and God bless

Wow i rly noticed improvement in just 17 min. Thanks my G, u did an excellent video

Hey, I want to thank you for making this video. I've been recorded and toured as a rapper for years and started working on becoming a singer a couple years ago. You taught me how to keep that muscle engaged and it made me sound better instantly. Thanks!

Very good "sensual and visual" explanation. I so enjoy watching your lessons. I've studied singing since college....decades. You are such a breath of fresh intelligent teaching. Plus, your singing is gorgeous!

Hey respect man, some people are just good at teaching and you for sure are! Im 11 minutes in and I’m gonna for sure finish the video but im practicing with you (pausing the video and exercising) and word word word moment for moment I understand what you are explaining... Plain & Simple, Thats SPECIAL ... Thanks 🙏🏿

Thanks for this man. I've been playing around with singing for years and I feel like its time to see what I can actually do

This was super helpful. The skeleton visual was a helpful touch too, being a more visual person.

Explained it sooooo well. Wow

This is life changing. Thank you!!!!!!!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge brother. God bless!

This video is gold, man. Thank you so much.

That exact special feeling I forget from time to time... Thanks a lot!!!

Lol your low key funny bro 😂 thank you for your dedication ,really need this. Thank you Jesus

Oh my god thank you i searched so long for training for the chest voice bc everybody speaks of chest voice but nobody explains how to use it and i have fighted for so long with tension in the throat. You‘re such an angel!
