It's just a bunch of ppl, whats so bad about it? Stage fright is 100% in your head, just like anyother fear. It's not going to kill you, and I'm saing this and I'm not even a trumpet player... If you wanna do what they did in Coyote ugly, im 17, single,... lol

I used to visit the nurses workplace at any time when I needed to provide a speech in my ninth grade essential speech elegance. I used to be so fearful!!! Of direction you're going to pay attention to assume everybody of their lingerie. Won't paintings. People will say you're going to in no way recover from it. Yes you'll, to a point, I did. You will constantly consider a bit pang of ache. That won't depart. The extra you rise up there, the simpler it is going to get, however you're going to need to gain knowledge of to make use of the fright adrenaline in a brand new approach. Try to channel the vigour of worry into pleasure of being there. Much like an severe physical activities man or woman might do. Use the worry for your improvement since shyness and degree fright are in general ingrained so that you need to re-deal with, examine, and faucet into it in a brand new approach. I may not point out utilizing valium, natural tea, something. That is vain data. I've been to your sneakers and mostly you need to use a few style of placebo influence or brain over topic method. The quality data is to show the dreaded, poor emotions/vigour into some thing else as a way to be just right for you. If you are not able to do this, good sorry, the viewers will feel the worry and tear you aside!!! Good success. I have come an extended approaches from in no way speakme cuz of worry to honestly doing some thing and seeking to move past the remedy zone.

Doing anything in front of your family can always be challenging for everyone. They know you and often do not openly critique you so you never really know what they think but at the same time it is what they think that matters most to you. The best thing to do is to try and ensure open communication if you want it. I would imagine though if your nervous you do want them to like what you are doing. Make sure your comfortable with getting comments and then jst let it go. When you can be honest and you know they will be honest it allows you to perform/ sing even better than before.

I have the same problem, love. Unfortunatly, there is not real cure for the stage fright bit. But I've found that the more I push myself to sing infront of small groups, or even one person, the less nervous I get every time. Over the years, I'm still nervous to sing infront of my parents, which is ridiculous. They're my biggest fans. ;) Although, I will say that it has gotten much better. Remember, these are your closest friends and family - They don't want you to mess up, they're rooting for you!

It is from your family members that you seek sincere acceptance. Loving families readily accept your attributes and your frailties. Go into the room, breathe deeply, even admit your nervousness if necessary.
Most likely, the family member will attempt to calm you. As you sing, begin looking slightly over the head of your audience, then gradually, as your confidence builds, look them in the eyes.
Repetition is what makes us, so perform for them whenever possible.

Had the same problem too before. All i had to do was do some exercise before a performance like simple aerobics, whatever. It lessens the stress of facing an audience. Also if you know you are very well prepared it would make you more confident.

Funny, I do the same thing. I think I want the ones closest to me to be the most impressed and I add pressure to myself that way.
First of all, I always tell my family NOT to tell me which night they're going to see my shows. In the off chance that you do see them, I like to pretend I'm in character, not me. (I act too) I'll just pretend that I'm playing a part of a singer. I hope it makes sense.
If not, do like Cher and take a shot of whiskey before going on. She gets major stage fright. (Oh that only works if you're over 21)
Best of luck!
