Take A Breath: Community Choir Session 1
During this session we aim to have fun singing in a welcoming and non-judgemental group setting, whilst challenging ourselves a little with new songs using harmonies.
You will be surprised at how well this can happen even for those with little singing experience or who may have a fear of singing due to perhaps being told – the damaging and incorrect statement that they ‘Couldn’t sing’ by an old school teacher or friend / family member.
If we have a voice -then we can sing. All people deserve the right to express ourselves using our voices and not feel like we have to lock them away
Regular singing in a relaxed manner is a great way to unlock our voices and we will all develop together as a group with our joint focus and encouragement.
We will warm up our voices, open out our lungs and relax our bodies with gentle exercises at the start of the sessions.

- Have extra space to do that pre-recorded / online dance class
