Are you an aspiring singer eager to enhance your vocal skills? Whether you’re just starting or looking to refine your abilities, following expert advice can significantly boost your progress. At Vox Singing Academy, we have decades of experience helping singers of all levels achieve their vocal goals. Here are 5 tips to start singing better.
One of the most crucial elements of singing is proper breath control. Good breath control allows you to sustain notes longer, sing with greater power, and maintain consistent pitch. Here’s how you can improve your breath control:
Practice Deep Breathing Exercises: Focus on diaphragmatic breathing rather than shallow chest breathing. Inhale deeply through your nose, allowing your abdomen to expand, and exhale slowly through your mouth.
Use Breathing Techniques During Warm-ups: Incorporate breathing exercises into your daily warm-up routine. For example, try sustain a steady note for as long as possible to control your exhalation.
Warming up your voice is essential to prepare your vocal cords for singing and to prevent strain. A consistent warm-up routine can significantly improve your vocal performance:
Start with Gentle Vocal Exercises: Begin with gentle humming or lip trills to gradually wake up your vocal cords.
Scale Practice: Use scales to work on your pitch accuracy and vocal range. Start with simple scales and gradually move to more complex patterns.
Incorporate Stretching: Include neck and shoulder stretches in your routine to release tension and improve your posture.

Singing in tune is fundamental to sounding good. Developing pitch accuracy can be achieved through regular practice and ear training:
Use a Piano or Digital Tuner: Practice matching your voice to the notes played on a piano or digital tuner. This helps train your ear to recognize and replicate accurate pitches.
Record Yourself: Recording your practice sessions allows you to hear yourself objectively. Identify areas where you tend to go off-pitch and work on correcting them.
Ear Training Exercises: Engage in ear training exercises that focus on recognising and singing intervals, scales, and chords.
Expanding your vocal range allows you to sing a wider variety of songs and hit higher or lower notes with confidence. Here are some tips to help you extend your range:
Practice Vocal Sirens: Sirens involve sliding your voice from your lowest to highest pitch in one smooth motion. This exercise helps in stretching and strengthening your vocal cords.
Gradual Scale Ascension: Start singing scales at your comfortable range and gradually move up or down by half steps. Avoid straining your voice; progress should be slow and steady.
Seek Professional Guidance: Working with a vocal coach from Vox Singing Academy can provide you with personalised exercises and feedback to safely expand your range.

Work on Your Expression: Use facial expressions and body language to convey the emotions of the song. Practice in front of a mirror to become more aware of your expressions.
Engage with Your Audience: Make eye contact and interact with your audience to create a connection. Imagine you’re telling a story to each person in the room.
Record Live Performances: Watching recordings of your performances helps you identify areas for improvement and become more comfortable on stage.
