Singing Your Cares Away: 6-Week Course in Glenageary

Thursdays, 11am-12.30pm, 6th October 2016-10 November 2016
St Paul’s Church Parish Centre, Adelaide Rd, Glenageary, Co.Dublin. 2 mins to Dart.

This course is all about connecting with yourself and your voice, being in the moment, letting go of stress, and basking in blissful harmonious sounds. It is open to anyone regardless of singing experience. There will be songs and chants from around the world, playing with the voice, improvisation, vocal production exercises and more. It is not an ordinary singing class, but more a loosely guided meditation using the voice and harmony to bring us in contact with ourselves and with each other.

Open to anyone from age 16-160 years old!! Parents and grandparents welcome to bring small, pre-crawling babies as it is a beautiful thing to sing while holding a baby, or place the baby on blankies (please bring!) in the centre of the harmonious circle.

€75 in advance for the 6 sessions. No drop-ins, but newcomers can attend the first session and then decide to book the course or pay €15 for that session only.
Booking: Payment in advance essential, via PayPal on www.globalharmonies.com or contact me about bank transfer/cheque.
