"In this clip I'm going to talk about the importance of breathing which is essential to your warm up. First of all you know where your lungs are breath, your lungs is actually a muscle called the diaphragm. Which is a elastically muscle and if you relax your belly really relax and let it go, that muscles the diaphragm relaxes. Here is a really interesting trick nature vacuum. I don't know if you remember learning this in 11th grade science. But anytime there was a empty vacuum, air goes anything would fill it up. If I for example just drop my belly I'm not pushing out but if I dropped, air has gone in automatically. I have to breathe in actively. I have breathe in passively which make for singing so I'm going to show you that. So air out goes out and then drop. So that is passive breathing. "
