Stage Fright

Use stage fright to your advantage. The more scared you are, the bigger you should be.

Stage Fright

Thinking

If you’re trying to think of what to say next, then you are not listening.

Smile

When you perform, Smile! If you think you’ll look silly then consider what it looks like when when all you do is frown.

Smile

Storytelling

Singing is storytelling. Singers are storytellers.

Storytelling

Message

Focus on the message and stage fright becomes less important.

Smiling

Smiling opens the sides of your mouth and helps with projection.

It’s not about you, its about connecting with the audience.
