057 Vocal Health & Voice Training Chat with Dane Chalfin - Part 2
About this episode
Today, continuing with our celebration week, we go through the second part of my interview with Dane Chalfin. In this part, Dane answers the previous episode's cliffhanger - are straws a good tool for warmups? He also shares his thoughts on post-pregnancy voice training, stuffed up nose and how to deal with voice ageing.
What You Will Learn In This Episode:
- Dane’s take on the use of straws for warmups and in voice therapy
- The dependency straws can cause and why it is so easy to get things wrong with them
- The benefits of using steam and how we can benefit from breathing through our mouth and nose simultaneously
- Why the voice tends to change after pregnancy and how to deal with it
Throughout this interview, we also dive into a fun and informative myth-busting quickfire, where I bombard Dane with some internet-based knowledge about voice fatigue, the use of nebulisers, throat coat tea, and much more.
