They also practiced ear training and vocal exercises designed to increase energy and openness. The session concluded with the Student practicing a new song, with homework assigned to deeply familiarize themselves with the song and practice with full confidence and energy.

The Student and Tutor worked on vocal warm-ups and exercises, focusing on projection, pitch accuracy, jaw dropping, and ear training.
