First of all, take some nice deep breaths!. This will help you to relax!. Next, understand that everyone in the class is there to learn, and they are just as nervous as you are!. There will be someone there who is better than you, but there will be someone there who is not as good as you in some areas, too!. We all learn from each others' strengths *and* weaknesses!. Drink lots of water and get plenty of rest!. Your voice is affected by everything that happens to your body, so you need to take care of it!. On your way to your lesson, continue to breathe and do some sighing!. It will open your throat and relax your voice and your nerves!. Good luck, and have fun!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Remember the other students are there to learn too, so you're all in the same boat!. And they are usually very supportive and helpful!. Don't drink caffeine before lessons though!. Good luck and have fun!. : )Www@QuestionHome@Com

Don't worry!. If you have a good (or even an ordinary) singing teacher they will go through warm-up excersizes with you!
