Or something else it wasn't?

I made the time last night to do the AF with Vic on YouTube. I think the video was from about 2 weeks ago. We did "brrrr" with our lips and for the life of me, my sound kept shutting down because of tension. I finally figured it out. We did long tones and octave slurs and I started to really see and feel my jaw and lips in the process. Tiny movements but they are there. Last one were high notes but focusing on frown vs smile muscles just to see the difference. I really enjoyed the 20+ min of freedom just messing around with my flute. Thanks, Vic!

This group is not just about me teaching what I've learned... It's about us sharing what we've learned and supporting each other! Let's start a trend of teaching each other. What's something that you learned in your life, maybe even outside of music, that is helpful to your improv journey? Next, go share your unique voice in the INTROS CONTEST (and get a chance to win a private duet session with me!) and vote on your favorite!

Q. How many min a day do you have to practice? My Prescription for beginning to improve your improvising in 3-10 min a day: 🎤 Minute 1: Record yourself playing "Anyway Up" & "Anyway Down" by choosing a scale and improvising your way up & down the scale! This should only take about 30 sec. 🎧Then listen to your recording!🎧 Write: ✅ 1) One Thing You Liked! ⭕2) One Thing You'd like to improve... 🎵 Minute 2: Turn on a drone and record a "KISS" (stupidly simple) 30 sec free improv.🎧Listen to your recording!🎧 Write: ✅ 1) One Thing You Liked! ⭕ 2) One Thing You'd like to improve... 🎶 Minute 3: Record a 30-sec improv with the I-V chord progression backing track. 🎧& Listen!🎧 Write: ✅ 1) One Thing You Liked! ⭕ 2) One Thing You'd like to improve... The only ways to fail at this are to fail to write down what you liked and to fail to start! Post your recordings for support! This is for solidarity, not critique (unless you want it!). You're not alone!
