F YOU CAN TALK, YOU CAN SING!
We are all born to sing — I believe this with all my heart. People all over the world have sung for as long as there has been language – in fact only relatively recently, with the advent of musical recording, has the birthright of song been relinquished to the professionals.
Do you have a story? Perhaps there’s a reason why you’re afraid to sing. Many people who think they can’t sing have had some kind of experience that shut them down (for example, a criticism at an early age, a sense that someone else was the “the singer” in the family, an insensitive music teacher!) and this negative experience has gelled into a myth that they have come to see as a truth. Does this sound familiar to you?
HOW DOES THIS WORK?
We’ll start by opening up our idea of what singing is. Let’s play with sound, and what it’s like to simply make noise together. Let’s talk about what singing means to you and why, and what kind of music interests you. We’ll play games with singing and rhythm, do some toning and rounds as a way of exploring harmony, move and stretch our bodies as we explore making different sounds, and sing simple, accessible songs from different cultures. Finding your voice is both fun and profound!
If you want to learn to sing, email me and we’ll choose your first right step!
With life-long certainty I told Nancy I was tone-deaf and within two minutes she had me matching a note she was singing. I was amazed and a little bit giddy!
I thought I’d have to die and be reborn to do this!
Thank you so much for the singing lesson. It was something I will never forget and until recently I would never have done that. It’s all about growing. You are doing such great things for others with your gift. Thank you for sharing.
I knew nothing about singing but I have found that I can do this. It feels so good to sing with other humans.

GUITAR IN THE DOORWAY
Practice Prompt: Leave your stuff around…
For a lot of us it’s “Out of Sight, Out of Mind” when it comes to practicing singing.
A great solution to this is to leave prompts in various places around your home….
• Lyric sheets on the kitchen counter or on your bed.
• Laminated lyric sheets on a hook in your shower.
• Leave a few straws around the house for breathing exercises
• If you play a ukulele, leave it on the couch – don’t put it away in its case!
• And if you have a guitar, stick it in the doorway between rooms so you have to pick […]
Making Your Own Songbook
It’s good for your mindset as a singer (even if you’re just starting out), and it’s very important from a practical standpoint, to have easy access to your personalized toolkit.
Creating your own songbook is the perfect way to do this.
Although I know a lot of people use an ipad or tablet (and maybe I’ll get there eventually) I still like a paper songbook. I guess I’m old-fashioned that way. 😊 Also, I find it easier for multiple people to use an actual notebook – it’s easier to see over someone else’s shoulder.
My recommendation is to use a 3-ring binder divided into sections. We’ll talk about what those sections might be further below…
What you’ll need for your songbook “tool-kit”:

Mindset Shifts for Singing with Other People
This is an excerpt from the LAST CHAPTER of my book, The Fear of Singing Breakthrough Program: Learn to Sing Even if You Think You Can’t Carry a Tune.
You may not be quite there yet, but don’t worry – you can be – just give yourself time and compassion!
Singing with other people doesn’t need to be high stress.
It’s a mistake to think of it as a culmination of your singing efforts; instead think of every occasion to sing with other people as an opportunity to practice.
Each time will be different and some times will be more fun than others. When it’s less fun, don’t succumb to old feelings of shame, but rather turn […]
