Maurice44 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I have a tendency to stick my tongue out (briefly, without feeling it ) during singing (and speaking) which is quite annoying. Are there any exercises for relaxing it that could help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDEW Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Anchor the tip of your tongue to behind your bottom teeth. The bottom sides of your tongue should rest against your back molars. This is the resting position for your tongue. Ken, is this you? (an inside joke. I could not help myself.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Touching the tongue to the upper molars cause even better intrinsic anchoring and helps stabilize vowel resonance. This particular tongue position helps with what I call vowel anchoring, because its easier to keep all your vowels resonating in the same spot to keep your sound color consistent throughout your range. And definitely not your front molars. I've been saying "upper back molars" a lot lately, and just want to clarify that it has nothing to do with your front molars. Those don't exist. haha!
