Take A Breath: Community Choir
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.
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.
Day: Wednesday, 1:15pm – 3pm
