Singing
Frequently Asked Questions
To make your voice better and sing like a pro, you must make it a habit to read aloud, sing ‘Do Re Mi’ or the ‘Sargam’- ‘Sa Re Ga Ma…’ up and down the scales; practice for at least 30 minutes a day, stand in front of the mirror while singing to check your posture and body language, strengthen your diaphragm by making yoga and breathing exercises a part of your routine. Warming up before singing is important to ensure you don’t strain your voice.
