Lesson 1: Vocal Warmups

Welcome to Your Voice Journey.

Are you excited? You should be! Training your voice is a huge step in your transition. Be proud of yourself, because you're doing something incredible and transformative. You are in a cocoon, but you will be a butterfly before you know it!

Before diving into voice training, it's crucial to prepare your voice properly. Just like athletes warm up their muscles before intense exercise, vocal warmups help you avoid strain, improve flexibility, and create a stable foundation for your voice training. Without warming up, you risk tension, vocal fatigue, and slower progress.

Many voice training beginners struggle with tightness, breathiness, or vocal breaks. These warmups will help loosen your voice, improve airflow, and give you better control. Think of this as conditioning your voice before more targeted training. The better your warmup routine, the more effective your training sessions will be.

Why Vocal Warmups Matter

Your voice is controlled by muscles, and like any muscle, it needs to be stretched and activated before use. Without proper preparation, your vocal cords may feel tight, making it harder to control pitch, resonance, and speech flow. A well-warmed voice will sound smoother, more relaxed, and more natural.

Another benefit of warming up is injury prevention. Overuse or improper training can lead to vocal strain, hoarseness, or even long-term damage. Consistently warming up reduces tension and keeps your voice strong, flexible, and healthy.

Exercises to Prepare Your Voice

Humming Scale

This warmup gently activates your vocal cords and improves airflow.

🎤 Sample: Allie

Allie's voice glides up the scale with gentle breath and smooth resonance.

Lesson 2: Breath Control

Welcome to the next step of your voice training journey.

Your voice is a part of you and it is okay if it takes time to shape it into something that feels right. Just like learning an instrument, your voice training will require patience, practice, and self-compassion. There is no wrong voice, only voices that have not fully developed yet. You are capable of changing your voice and this lesson will help you start from the most essential foundation: breath control.

If you have ever watched a single YouTuber breeze through voice training, you might feel like you are struggling while others make it look easy. The truth is, everyone's voice journey is unique. That is why throughout this lesson you will eventually hear voice samples from multiple trans women at different stages of training. For now, the recordings are placeholders but I will be adding real samples from professional voice trainers and volunteers as I collect them. This will help you understand that every voice has potential and growth happens over time.

Why Breath Control Matters

Think of your voice like a wind instrument. Without steady breath support, your sound will waver, crack, or feel weak. Breath control gives you stability, clarity, and endurance. It also helps prevent vocal strain so you can train for longer periods without discomfort.

Exercises to Build Strong Breath Control

Diaphragmatic Breathing

This strengthens the diaphragm, prevents shallow breathing, and supports consistent airflow.

Counting Breath

This improves lung capacity and breath stamina.

🔊 Placeholder for audio sample

Box Breathing

This regulates breathing patterns and reduces anxiety, which can affect vocal stability.

🔊 Placeholder for audio sample

Sustained “Ahhh”

This helps with vocal consistency and airflow control.

🔊 Placeholder for audio sample

Lip Trills

This encourages relaxed airflow and prevents tension in the voice.

Lesson 3: Resonance

A common mistake many people make when voice training is assuming a higher pitch will make a voice more feminine on its own. However, your voice is more than just pitch, it’s the way your voice resonates in your body. Resonance shapes the overall timbre of your voice and is one of the most important factors in achieving a voice that feels right for you. Feminine voices tend to emphasize head resonance, while masculine voices rely more on chest resonance. This lesson will help you learn how to adjust and control resonance to better align with your vocal goals. I know it sounds complicated at first, but keep going! Your voice will change a lot if you keep at it!

If you have ever felt like your voice sounds “off” despite changing your pitch, resonance may be the missing key. Throughout this lesson, you’ll eventually hear voice samples from multiple trans women at different stages of training. For now, the recordings are placeholders, but I will be adding real samples from professional voice trainers and volunteers as I collect them. This will help you understand that every voice has potential and growth happens over time.

Why Resonance Matters

Think of your voice as an instrument. Where the sound vibrates determines its tone and quality. Feminine voices tend to have brighter, forward-placed resonance, while masculine voices have deeper, chest-based resonance. Learning to shift resonance will help you create a voice that feels more natural and comfortable.

As stated before, changing your pitch helps, but resonance plays an equally important role. A higher pitch with deep resonance may still sound masculine, while a slightly lower pitch with forward resonance can sound feminine. By learning to adjust resonance, you can create a more natural, comfortable, and feminine vocal quality, even with a low pitch! Yes, it's possible! (And don't worry, we will get to pitch in the next lesson.)

Exercises to Refine Your Resonance

Lesson 10: Inflection and Emotion

Your voice is more than just pitch. The way you shape words, emphasize sounds, and move between tones creates a natural, engaging speech pattern. Feminine voices tend to have more dynamic pitch variation, fluid movement, and emotional expression, making them feel lighter and more engaging.

If your voice feels flat, robotic, or monotone, this lesson will help you develop natural, expressive speech patterns. Learning to control inflection and emotion is key to making your voice sound natural, effortless, and authentically *you*.

Why Inflection & Emotion Matter

Think of a conversation between two people: one speaks with a flat, monotone voice, while the other sounds expressive and engaged. Which one sounds more feminine? A voice with natural rise and fall, subtle pitch shifts, and emotional energy feels more fluid and alive.

Feminine voices often use pitch variation, dynamic energy, and emotional expression. This doesn’t mean over-exaggerating, but rather letting your voice move naturally with the rhythm of speech.

Exercises to Develop Inflection & Expression

Exaggerated Reading

This helps break monotone habits and trains your voice to move dynamically.
