Had first choir practice today, it was actually quite good! Only thing is that I find myself not breathing properly and it doesn't help when singing long notes, any techniques that can help?
Thanks!

So. I'm going to plug my singing teacher's website
here because she has a wonderful article on use of the breath which I think would help you a great deal. She lists step-by-step how a breath should be taken and suggests exercises to help you see how it should feel. Quite long, but worth reading. She knows her stuff

Good luck...glad you're enjoying choir, keep it up!
