What Is Vocal Support?
Main Metaphor: Continuous Resistance
The key metaphor is continuous resistance.
Support is a dynamic sensation: as if you were gently pushing a heavy object or slowly compressing a tight spring. Inhalation moves the diaphragm down and forward; while singing, we do not lock the body, but gradually and consciously resist its natural tendency to rise sharply upward.
