Let’s Break It Down, Baby: Stage by Stage
So you’ve got that fire in your belly. You’ve been asking yourself, “How long does it take to learn singing?” And honey, that’s the right question. Because learning to sing isn’t about being born with some magical talent. It’s about building strength, confidence, and vocal control, step by step, day by day.
Now listen, every voice is different. Some of y’all will start seeing changes in a few weeks. Others will need months. But with daily practice and the right coaching, you WILL grow. And Mama Cheryl’s got the roadmap to help you do just that. Let’s walk through what your singing journey might look like.
Phase 1: The First 3–6 Months — Just Gettin’ in Tune
In the beginning, it’s all about discovering your voice. This is where you start learning breath control, pitch accuracy, and how to coordinate your sound. For most folks, it takes about three to six months to sing simple songs in tune. No shame in that, this is your foundation, baby!
If you’re just getting started, take my hand and step into the singing lessons for beginners course. It’s packed with easy-to-follow lessons that’ll show you how to breathe right, stand tall, and find your tone without fear.
Phase 2: Months 6–12 — Grow That Confidence and Stretch That Range
By this time, your voice is waking up. You’re developing power, learning to switch vocal registers, and growing your range. You’re also figuring out how to express yourself more fully, how to feel what you sing.
Now’s the time to bring in daily warm-ups and conditioning. And baby, if you’re serious about turning up the heat, check out my vocal workout course. These are the same routines I give to professional singers, and they’ll have you moving, breathing, and building strength in no time.
Phase 3: Year 1–2 — Confidence Meets Control
Around the one to two-year mark, your voice starts showing out. You’re performing with consistency, hitting your notes on pitch, and finding your own style. This is where artistry meets technique.
Wanna add flair and finesse? Then it’s time for the vocal riffs and runs course. I’ll teach you how to bend, flip, slide, and sparkle like the pros. It’s not just about technique, it’s about feeling the music in your bones.
Phase 4: 2+ Years — Polish, Power, and Performance
Now we’re talkin’ mastery. Two years in, you’re fine-tuning tone, building vocal stamina, and developing emotional depth in your singing. Whether you’re preparing for the stage or teaching others, this is where your artistry shines.
