Post by Granny33 »

alright when i sing for 5 or 6 minutes i get pretty light-headed...i asked my friend whos an amaaaazing singer and she said thats supposed to happen because you're breathing right and taking in so much air so quick. this happen to anyone else?

actually it from letting too much air out too quickly. have you ever had to blow up a bunch of balloons for a party or something and after a few you start to get light headed? it's the same thing and i think it can actually be attributed to breathing incorrectly because if you do it too long you'll pass out.

when you breathe do you use your diaphram? you might just not be taking in enough air when you sing and need to work on breathing properly.

I think elijiah is right. I get light headed sometimes but I don't sing (or breathe) from the diaphram as much as I should be.
good, and you?
