Warm-ups for Musicians

At the Utrecht Conservatory, we have developed a series of warm-ups that are designed to warm-up not only your body, but to enhance the mind-body connection, the propioception. We do the warm-ups in class, and then you are assigned specific warm-ups to repeat at home.

The Orientation Exercises are online films created by our cooperation with the Trinity/Laban School of Music and Dance.

There are also Class Films that are simpler or slightly different versions of these.

In addition, we have specific warm-ups for instrument groups and voice. See the side bars for the warm-up you are looking for.
