Learn To Sing - Lessons Are A Must

By Michelle Rudge


Can you sing already and even get compliments about your singing? Hold a tune quite well? Or are you a complete novice and not even sure if you're singing on key most of the time? Whatever category you fit into, you can benefit from learning how to sing - lessons are your first step!

Even though I've been singing in my church (and other public arenas) for the last 10 years, it was only a few years ago that I finally went to my first singing lesson. After all those years of singing I had lulled myself into this false sense of security, believing that I knew enough to get by in my amateur singing. But I had no idea how limited my singing was.

On my very first signing lesson I learnt how to breathe... and how much of a difference it makes to breathe properly. I know this may seem like a simple thing and you shouldn't need lessons to accomplish it, but it really does make a difference to how you sing and sets the basis for improving your singing more and more.

I was lucky enough to be getting lessons from a woman who was a fantastic singer herself, and I loved the lessons and how much I was learning and improving. Unfortunately I came to a time in my life where I was not able to afford the lessons anymore. Though disappointed, I was determined to keep up the progress and started to look online for an alternative to one-on-on lessons.

And I was so glad to find, that there are lots and lots singing lessons that you can get online. And this is a very suitable alternative. With theory lessons, audio tracks, backing tracks and practices, the internet has made learning to sing something you can easily do using an online course.
