# Welcome!
This guide is meant to be formatted similarly to [L's Voice Guide](https://www.troddit.com/r/transvoice/comments/d3clhe/ls_voice_training_guide_level_1_for_mtf) on Reddit, but with more up to date information.
All information on this part of the guide was taken from either the rest of this guide, or from L's guide.


## Getting started
This guide was made by a transfem for help with vocal feminization, if you are transmasc and know some good resources, contribute!
I'll try my best to make the resources neutral, but there are no guarantees
### Stuff to help you along your way
Before you start, record your voice as it is, dont try to change anything yet. Do this before every session if you can.
Whenever you train, keep a bottle of water with you, an drink it often. It's a lot harder to train when you're dehydrated.

# 1. Inspiration
Before you start training, find a good example for what you want your voice to sound like. It's a lot easier to train your voice if you have a specific goal to strive for.
If you can't think off the top of your head, you can try [one of these](/wiki/pages/voice-examples/)
# 2. Vocal Tract Length
PLEASE don't try to move the muscles manually, this can end up either straining your muscles too much.
Try to change your voice rather than moving the muscles. It should start to come easier as you practice more.

A good drill to start is the [big dog/small dog drill](/wiki/pages/resonance/#big-dog-small-dog)
Heres a good video by freya on youtube

[backup if the link is down](/wiki/pages/level-based/bigdog-smalldog.webm)
If you do this while lookingin a mirror you may notice your voice box(?) start to move up/down. Yay progress ! :D
# 3. Pitch
## [Pitch is not extremely important!](/wiki/pages/getting-started/pitch#how-important-is-pitch)
#### But it CAN help you train a lot.
It's recommended that you train at around 200hz, and then more around from there onceyour comfortable.
If you cant go that high without falsetto, you can slowly work your way up by starting low and slowly moving up, going a bit higher every time.


Now that youve started on your voice journey, record another clip of your voice using what you've accomplished so far.
