Diaphragm Training
Version 1 (von improwiki, 09.04.2026 14:15)
A voice preparation exercise. The group stands in a circle. The facilitator sets a beat and everyone joins in.
Three consonants are spoken as loudly as possible, without using the mouth to amplify — only the diaphragm:
- 'P! P! P!' (short, explosive)
- 'T! T! T!' (sharp, staccato)
- 'K! K! K!' (deep, guttural)
This strengthens the diaphragm and prepares the voice for projection.
