Discovering Your Voice
It doesn’t matter what level of skill you start taking vocal lessons at, you can still improve.
Sometimes in the pursuit of finding your own voice you may hit a wall.
Vocal lessons are to clarify those obstacles and how to overcome them. If you don’t like how you sound, change it.
Execution can be that simple with the right guide to help you understand what you want.
Everyone has their own goals when it comes to singing, it’s important to be clear about where you see yourself as a singer.
This can help outline the necessary steps needed to be taken to meet your goals.
Growth & Experience
Once the obstacle has been identified we then work on cultivating your skill to get passed it.
Growth comes from repetition/ routine. Experience comes from execution.
As vocal instructors we can only assess where you are now. Everyone has the potential to be a great singer.
If you are starting vocal lessons, try not to limit yourself as working with variety in music can help you learn something you maybe didn’t know before.
Spend time perfecting what you know, and trying different muscles or vocal styles. Pursue something better than what you are trying and you will surely find it.
Life lessons & Adaptability
Learning how to sing is not the only thing you learn from vocal lessons.
You learn how to handle social anxiety, improvisation, and public speaking.
Vocal training can be used to improve your projection and stage presence, which can benefit all walks of life.
On stage, the uncanny can happen, so being prepared for adjusting to mishaps is a give in.
To be a vocalist, is to learn how to develop thick skin and know the difference between constructive and non constructive criticism.
Developing your voice can help you understand what you like about it, as well as how you view others who listen.
For some, this can be a big obstacle, learning how to change your mindset through training is just one of the benefits to taking vocal lessons.
