1. Singing Can Increase Your Creativity
Do you feel like you’re in a creative rut? Do you want to try something new? Singing is one of the most beneficial things you can do for your creative brain. Your brain makes new connections when you learn new tasks, and the act of singing engages the body, mind, and spirit.
Singing as an adult has been shown to improve things like cognition, language, better understanding of math (due to learning to read music), and even emotional intelligence. Plus, it’s really, really fun.
2. Singing is Good For Your Mental Health
Music therapists testify that singing is good for your entire body, but especially for your mind. Singing increases your awareness of sound, how it fits in the world, and makes your brain release happy chemicals. Great songs demand to be sung along to. How do you feel when you sing your favorite song? It’s usually positive.
That is the feeling you’ll get when you master a new skill as an adult. Singing lessons are a great way to keep your brain active.
If you want to take voice lessons at any age, you already have your instrument. You don’t need to go out and buy a guitar or drum set, or haul any gear. You just need…you.
3. Singing Burns Calories
If you stand for an hour and sing, it burns more calories than you think. Studies site singing as a way to burn 180 to over 300 calories.
So, if you have one hour-long lesson in a week, it could be similar to a workout. Maybe when you take singing lessons as an adult you can skip the elliptical on lesson days.
Singing also encourages the positive habit of practice. If you want to become a good vocalist (like anything) you need to practice. The more you practice, the more calories you’ll burn too. It’s a win win.
4. You Have a Built-In Instrument
If you want to take voice lessons at any age, you already have your instrument. You don’t need to go out and buy a guitar or drum set, or haul any gear. You just need…you.
Odds are you sing in the car or the shower, or listen to music when you’re getting ready for work or school. So, it’s time to put your voice to great use and learn music! Taking voice lessons is great for anyone at any age, but adults have used their voices for a longer period of time and can pick up things a little bit quicker than those at a younger age.
Whether you want to just have fun or are looking to turn singing into a career there is a voice lesson path for you.
If you work with a voice teacher who is there to nurture and teach you, your confidence will soar.
5. Singing Builds Confidence in Music and Life
Being able to be vulnerable enough to sing is a very big deal. Singing alone is one thing, but singing in front of other people is a whole other level of courage. If you work with a voice teacher who is there to nurture and teach you, your confidence will soar.
It’s important to pick the right voice teacher. If you research them as we recommended, you may land on someone like Jessica Winn at ModernTone Studios in the Bay Area. The hallmark of her teaching style is making every student feel safe and ready to be creative.
