The Adeline Toniutti Method
Our singing lessons teach the Adeline Toniutti method, based on anatomical-physiological data and created in collaboration with 26 doctors and specialists of the body and voice (ENT surgeons, phoniatrists, speech therapists, physiotherapists, etc.) brought together in an exceptional manner to help everyone understand the mechanics of the voice.
Adeline's method is published in a book, Anatomie du Chant, which will be a landmark in the understanding of vocal technique. This method is designed for the most complete beginner as well as the most experienced, and addresses all styles of singing: pop, rap, classical, variety...
It rests on 5 essential pivot points that constitute the vital and indispensable checklist for the singer:
1. Perfecting your posture 2. Triggering the correct laryngeal movement 3. Optimising exhalation 4. Making the sound resonate 5. Articulating vowels and consonants
The 5 pivot points form an anatomical-physiological recipe and provide the bodily reference points necessary for singing. The challenge: to feel the mechanisms at work in your 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, from contemporary music to classical singing. The student is guided in building a true artistic palette of colours from which they can draw according to their identity and their path.
