- 5Before singing in front of an audience, try to practice at home. You may find many karaoke versions of songs you want to sing on the internet.

Again, the more you practice at home, the more confident you will be when performing in front of other people. All it takes is a little work to practice singing properly.Practice at home.
- 6If this is going to be your first performance or if you still feel afraid of singing solo, try to sing with another person at first. The other person may be your friend or even a stranger you meet at the party who simply likes the same song as you. With a singing partner, you will know that you have support and you will realize that there is nothing to worry about!Consider singing with a companion.
