Your Singing Teacher
Adeline Toniutti & Her Team
Our singing lessons transmit the Adeline Toniutti method, based on anatomical-physiological data and created in collaboration with 26 doctors and body and voice specialists.
THE METHOD
A Scientifically Grounded Approach
Adeline's method is published in a book, Anatomie du Chant, which will be a landmark in understanding vocal technique. This method is intended for the most novice as well as the most experienced, and addresses all singing styles: pop, rap, classical, variety...
The five pivot points compose an anatomical-physiological recipe and provide the bodily reference points necessary for singing. The goal: to feel the mechanisms at work in one's own body that are specific to vocal technique. These pivot points free the singer from constraints in order to meet the demands of multiple repertoires.
CORE PRINCIPLES
The 5 Pivot Points
Posture
Take care of your posture to build a solid vocal foundation.
Laryngeal Movement
Trigger the correct laryngeal movement for optimal sound production.
Exhalation
Optimize exhalation to support sustained, powerful singing.
Resonance
Make the sound resonate through proper placement and technique.
Articulation
Articulate vowels and consonants with clarity and precision.
