How to sing (part 2)

So just out of curiosity, at average, how long does it take for a person with no background in singing to be at least decent or ready to perform? Cause I want to sing for my church but don't know when I'll be ready. If you can answer my question, I'd really appreciate it.

@bekerglas You can feel it. It's just like your singing from your stomach

You kind of blow up your stomach and use your muscles there. I'm not a singer myself, someone told me this, so I would check this with someone else :)

when you sing do your shoulders move when breathing if so it shouldnt be you should be breathing from your stomach look up diaphragmatic breathing if uncertain hope this helps and also get a vocal coach you will not regret it
