What They Don’t Tell You About Teaching Yourself How to Sing

So, you’re interested in learning how to sing—or maybe even teaching yourself how to sing—but you’re wondering what they don’t tell you about this journey. You’re in the right place! In this episode, I’m going to walk you through the five elements of the perfect training ground that will help you make real progress as a singer. Let’s dive in!

Consistency: The Key to Progress

One of the biggest mistakes singers make when they’re teaching themselves to sing is thinking they’ve “checked off” a vocal technique once they’ve learned it. The reality is, singing techniques need to be ingrained into your muscle memory so that they come naturally when you’re performing—whether on stage, at karaoke, or even in a choir. To make that happen, you need repetition. Consistent practice is what cements these skills into your voice, and that’s why inside Singing Insiders, we provide vocal workouts to ensure you’re building your technique over time.

Accountability: Staying on Track

Learning to sing on your own can be tough, especially when motivation dips. This is why having an accountability system is crucial. Whether it’s checking in with fellow singers, setting reminders for yourself, or enlisting the support of friends and family, accountability keeps you committed. In fact, studies show that you’re 95% more likely to achieve a goal when you’re being held accountable. Imagine what that kind of support could do for your singing journey!

Community: Surround Yourself with the Right People

You are the sum of the five people you spend the most time with. Think about who those five people are in your life—do they lift you up and inspire you? Being part of a community that supports your dreams can make all the difference in your progress and confidence as a singer. Singing Insiders is built on this idea of community, where singers encourage and inspire each other to grow in a positive environment.

Feedback: The Missing Link to Growth

Many singers practice on their own, but how do you know if you’re implementing techniques correctly? Unlike an instrument, you only have one voice, and it’s essential to take care of it. Having a coach or mentor to provide constructive feedback ensures that you’re on the right track. Even singers who work with a coach can struggle with applying feedback after a lesson, which is why consistent access to guidance is key.

Training: Finding the Right Method for You

Not all vocal training methods are created equal, and what works for one singer might not work for another. There are several well-known methodologies out there, but the best approach is to find a training style that fits your unique voice. In Singing Insiders, we use the Vocal Freedom Method, which combines technique with confidence-building and creative expression. Because let’s face it—if you don’t trust your voice, how can you expect to sing freely?
