Transcript

If you've got a really important conversation to have, or you're about to stand on stage in front of 15,000 people, I have prepared a little warm up for you, which will help to boost your physical confidence and get the best out of your voice and to help you to deliver the most authentic and powerful message that you can. So here we go with the event warm up. I really hope you enjoy this and most of all, I hope you practice this. Here is your event warm up. And this is if you have space enough to fully extend your arms. So you've got lots of nice space to practice in.

Your breathing deeply here, hands on the ribcage. Standing tall, shoulders back, chest Stop and chin down. And you're going to start off, inhaling for two, exhaling for two, then changed, inhaling, for four counts, extending the breath and exhaling for four. Do the same for six and for eight, and really pay attention to filling and lifting the lungs. And as you breathe out to really tightening the core, stretching up on an in breath, reaching as high as you can, stretching from the lower stomach and with the arms, taking the arms down, and pulling the arms behind the back, squeezing the shoulder blades together, interlocking the fingers and ideally squeezing the palms together. Facial yoga, taking the mouth wide, head back carefully, and close the mouth and while Will you feel that stretch, bending forwards now with the same arm position and then releasing the Spend a few moments here as long as you've got relaxing and breathing, and then go for the stretch and lift back up.

Again. Please take your time doing this if you need to. Once you've really stretched us take the arms wide as you can either side with the body on an outbreak. And now to stretch the sides. This is very important for the diaphragm and this is very important for you feeling loose and limber on stage. So stretching from side to side.

The more repetitions you can do of this particular one, the better you'll really notice you feel loose, and this will increase your posture. This will increase your lung capacity and this will generally make you feel nice and loose in your upper body and all the vital areas for speaking. Here is your event warm up for you If you don't have a lot of room, so say for example, you're it's getting very close to when you're going to be speaking. And suddenly, nerves come upon you, you feel like your breathing is shallow, and the only place you can think of practice to do all you need to do to get the best out of your voice are the toilets and the restrooms. So imagine you're inside a restroom or a toilet that's limited in space. I'm going to talk you through how you can still do your event warm up effectively.

So beginning in the same way, this first bit is exactly the same as the spacious warm up because your hands are in, hands on top of the ribcage and deep breathing. But this time the difference is raised the arms up in front of your body so you're not taking your arms out to the side. Take your arms up right in front of your body. Lift up on an in breath. Breathe out and take the arms straight down in front of you. interlock behind your back, you can still do that in exactly the same way squeezing the shoulder blades together.

Practicing your facial yoga in exactly the same way, bending forward and trying to take the arms as far forward as you can, while still squeezing the shoulder blades and keeping the palms together. Get as much of a stretch here as you can really stretch out those hamstrings, especially if you're feeling nervous. Ideally, aim to take the fingertips towards the toes. If you can take a hold of your ankles or behind your knees, give yourself a pull in as well as a pull down and lifting straight back up. So vertically back up, not taking the arms out to the side, because we're imagining that we're in a small cubicle for this practice for this warm up. Because we haven't had the big wide arm movements I've included in this one a few shoulder rolls, that's really important those shoulder circles to get that area nice and warm.

And this time for the side stretches. The all important lung inside and diaphragm stretches, we're not lifting the arm overhead into the side. We're just keeping the arms by our side and moving the body further to get the stretch. So it works. Enjoy
