You will learn songs on the day in a self-contained workshops in a sociable and relaxed atmosphere. No sheet music, no need previous experience, and you will sing in harmony.
Past experiences might have led some people to consider themselves 'non-singers,' but we can change that and also find how singing, and signing with others benefits our physical and mental health.
We're all about making a welcoming space where anyone, no matter their background or singing experience, can feel more confident with their voice. Whether you're a newbie or have some singing know-how, this workshop is designed to accommodate various skill levels.
We'll skip the technical jargon and learn songs mostly by ear. Warm-ups for both body and voice will ensure vocal health, confidence, and a lot of fun.
The session will last for two hours with a break in between.
