How much time do i need to start seeing results?

Question

It will depend on your abilities, and how developed they are. Some people will start seeing results from the first lesson and others more behind in music, probably in weeks if its a person who practices enough. If you don't practice that's also okay but you will see results not so quickly, as practicing on a good way is fundamental for development.

Answer 1

Short answer: you could see results right away (if you follow the right tips), and surrender to the process.

See... expectations (especially the ones we are worried about not meeting, or too AFRAID to not meet) might cause tension and stress, and this could hijack your whole process.

I've watched students be able to witness their own results in a matter of minutes, and I've also watch some of those same students come back the next class bummed because they "forgot" how to do it. This created the illusion of regression instead of progression...

Despair not! Here are a few TIPS TO SEE FASTER RESULTS!

1. Practice OFTEN, not longer.
2. Seek to understand the concepts you apply, and also, seek to practice and become ever more aware of your own body as you learn how to use it, or "play it" (as the instrument it is) properly.
3. Take care of ONE thing at a time. One area of singing, one technique... ONE. You might be working on breath, OR lyrics, OR a particular technique, OR become aware of your soft palate... but NEVER all of them at once.
4. Surrender to the process. Meaning: "Let the performer side of your mind do it's job; and surrender the judger side of your mind to your coach, or DELAY it."

I explain each of these tips in the video, but if you need more info, or would like to book a class with me, don't hesitate to send me a message. I'm more than happy to be part of your journey into becoming the best singer you have ever been!

See you around,

Every voice is different, so answering your question depends on several factors. 1- A student's ability to comprehend information concerning vocal production, breath control, an understanding of singing in tune, etc. Singing is very athletic; you must build muscle memory and develop the connection between the mind and control of your body. The most crucial factor for any singer, especially in the early stages, is their relationship with the voice teacher. The bond of trust is monumental. Additionally, taping voice lessons, rehearsals, and sessions are great tools that can indicate the flaws in your singing; you will also see what's going well.

Answer 3

There is no easy answer for how long it will take to see results when working on your voice, but I would venture that if you are actively working on your voice on your own outside of lesson time, you are sure to experience newfound awareness and control fairly soon. The more you put in helps, of course, but improvement is best achieved with mindful practice, so having a teacher show you how and what to practice and what to focus on is key in the beginning, until you know enough about how to be self-guided in your practice efforts. Some things I recommend to students, which have worked for me as a lifelong musician, are: making notes on my observations as they occur - especially since singing involves body mapping and a host of internal sensations, repeating things 3-5 times - as singing and all music making with precision and consistency require a LOT of repetition to refine the motor control, and having a quiet place/space/time to work on your craft without distraction. Having a consistent approach will give your consistent results and will get you where you want to be vocally, quite likely faster than you thought.

Everyone's voice is different and everyone has different levels of abilities. That being said, most people do see results as soon the first lesson. Progress isn't always drastic or dramatic. Sometimes your progress will be small or minimal but it's still progress none the less.

Do you take time to listen to other singers and learn from them? Your exposure to good or great singing is also going to affect how well you sing over time.

Do you practice consistently everyday? You will only get out of something what you put into it. Meaning, if you practice for 20 minutes once a week you will not progress nearly as quickly as if you practice for 10 minutes everyday of the week.

Take the time to study your craft. Watch videos of your favorite artists. Listen to music constantly. The more you do that, the better your ear will become and the better your understanding of musicality and vocal expression will be as well.

Answer 5

Most students will see some immediate improvement after the first lesson. As with anything else, as awareness grows, so your understanding of habitual ways of singing will, too, meaning you might feel after about a 4-8 weeks of lessons you're singing worse! But take heart! Tuning your ear to how you're singing will help you to address those issues. As with any other motor skill, you're going to want to give any new technique 6 weeks before it starts to become integrated.

Answer 6

Results always come after any time singing. However, some of these results are small, or some can even be negative. It is only after some time that we see dramatic shifts in singing because we are often too close to the situation to notice the small steps forward until we look back on the miles we have crossed! If you aren't seeing the results you hoped for, take a moment to reflect on what you have accomplished, and the progress will reveal itself.
