Warming up well

Make sure that you always warm-up before practicing! 

If you have an audition or performance, I suggest that you first take a long, hot shower and enjoy the steam.  Then, make yourself a nice cup of herbal tea (ginger or lemon is best).  then, using your warm-up CD, do four exercises all the way through (about 15 minutes) and then sing through your song once.  Then stop! 

 You want to make sure you are well-warmed up, but not blown out.  Bring some hot tea with you to your show or audition and humm a little if you find you are waiting a long time.  Have a couple of snacks handy, too.
