General Thoughts on Tongue Positioning - Video

Hi everyone!! This is an excerpt from a workshop I gave in October. Our lovely community member Theresa volunteered to make some small video segments out of a few areas from the workshop. I'll be posting a few over the next week or so.

In this, we discuss the general structure and behavior of the tongue during voice feminization.

General Thoughts on Tongue Positioning - Video

My voice coach's explanation is something similar to vocal twang which makes the pharyngeal space works like a pipe-like resonator of a wind instrument. But I think more space means darker resonance in R1, so I am confused about it.

I find while curving my tongue, it also helps to create a brighter sound if I open my pharyngeal space by contracting the muscles back at the neck. It feels like when you suck the thumb hard and it helps to reduce the nasal sound too.

I understand the science behind tongue placement but I can't get the affect I want but I'm working at it and your work helps me a great deal
