Back-to-School Shopping for Singers: Why the Singing / Straw™ is a Must-Have

As the lazy days of summer start to wind down, the familiar buzz of back-to-school prep begins to fill the air. 

For teachers, vocal coaches, and students alike, this time of year is all about getting back into the groove—whether it’s setting up your classroom or studio, finalizing lesson plans, or gearing up for a fresh semester of voice studies.

But here’s a question: Is your voice as ready as the rest of you?

Why Vocal Prep is Key to a Successful School Year

If you’re a singer, vocal coach, or teacher, you know that your voice is one of your most valuable tools. It’s not just about hitting the right notes—it’s about maintaining vocal health and stamina throughout the school year. 

Whether you’re leading choir rehearsals, giving back-to-back lessons, or preparing for your next performance, your voice needs to be in tip-top shape to handle the demands ahead.

And let’s face it, the start of the school year can be a bit of a whirlwind. With so much on your plate, it’s easy to overlook your vocal care routine. That’s where the Singing / Straw™ comes in.

Introducing the Singing / Straw™: Your Back-to-School Vocal Companion

The Singing / Straw™ isn’t just another vocal tool—it’s a game-changer. 

Designed as a semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT) exercise tool, the Singing / Straw™ helps you build a stronger, healthier voice with ease. But what does that mean in practical terms, especially as you head back to the classroom or studio?

1. Ease Your Voice Into the New Routine: Transitioning from summer relaxation to the full swing of the school year can be tough on your voice. The Singing / Straw™ provides a gentle, effective way to ease your vocal cords back into regular use, reducing strain and preventing injury.
2. Strengthen Your High Notes and Range: For singers and vocal coaches, maintaining and expanding your vocal range is crucial. Regular practice with the Singing / Straw™ helps you strengthen those high notes and smooth out transitions, so you can hit every note with confidence.
3. Reduce Vocal Fatigue: Teaching all day or rehearsing for hours can leave your voice feeling tired and strained. The Singing / Straw™ works by creating back pressure that helps your vocal folds vibrate more efficiently, reducing tension and preventing fatigue.
4. Perfect for On-the-Go Practice: Whether you’re running between classes, rehearsals, or gigs, the Singing / Straw™ is compact and portable. Slip it into your bag or pocket, and you’ve got a powerful vocal exercise tool at your fingertips whenever you need it.

How to Incorporate the Singing / Straw™ into Your Back-to-School Routine

So, how can you make the Singing / Straw™ part of your daily routine as you head back to school? Here are a few tips:

• Warm-Up and Cool-Down: Start your day with a quick warm-up using the Singing / Straw™ to get your voice ready for action. After a long day of teaching or rehearsing, use it again to cool down and ease any tension.
• In Between Lessons or Classes: Got a few minutes between classes or lessons? Whip out your Singing / Straw™ and give your voice a quick tune-up. It’s a great way to keep your voice balanced throughout the day.
