MDH Breathing Coordination

“With my background in MDH Breathing Coordination, I coach actors and non-actors on how to maximize the efficiency of their voices by using minimum airflow and optimal coordination of all moving parts that make up the voice.” — Rob Hahn

What is MDH Breathing Coordination?

In short, it’s a way of restoring optimal function to the breathing and vocal mechanisms. It does so via amplifying and harmonizing the movements of the diaphragm with the surrounding structures. The technique also helps to restore, develop and maintain optimal efficiency of alignment and breathing for peak performance in all activities in human life, from common to high intensity. This very precise work gives us more stamina, richness and suppleness in the voice. Breathing Coordination has been indispensable to countless musicians, actors, lecturers and singers.

Why I employ this technique…

This work yields greater vocal dimension, along with dynamic stability for screaming, belting, hitting high notes, maintaining an emotional connection, and increasing vocal stamina. This work has also been employed to assist Olympic and professional-level athletes and people with vocal pathologies (from asthma to nodules to even COPD and emphysema). I am 1 of 3 people in the US with a Level 2 certification, and 1 of 22 people worldwide.

MDH Breathing Coordination

“MDH Breathing Coordination for me has been a game changer. In my own vocal performance. In my athletic performance. In my teaching. In my role of service to others. In my moment-to-moment living. It is rooted entirely in clear concepts and in current understanding of functional anatomy and physics. It is transformational and has tremendous application to people from all walks of life.”- Rob Hahn

Concept

What is known as "support" is an optimal way for the body to pressurize the airflow and its variations through subtle adjustments of several groups of muscles, including intercostals, back muscles, all abdominals, diaphragm and more.

“Rob is the best. I have used him for four different dialects now — Swedish, British, Australian, and Minnesotan — and his knowledge and direction have been thorough and impeccable. I know he coaches in person, but we’ve used Skype for each of our sessions so far, and it has worked beautifully (and conveniently). He is always prepared for our coaching sessions. We review the IPA for each dialect, the placement, melody, etc., and then we apply it to the script. He will even record it so I can listen to the re-play and help my recall. I feel like I get more than my money’s worth (and he is reasonable.) I highly recommend!”
