Within a small community choir of 14 supportive people, we begin to discover, reclaim and strengthen our unique voices through singing.
About this Event

This 12-week session offers a safe space to support and learn from each other as we apply the exercises and teachings of songs chosen by the group.


Whether singing a solo, in a duo, trio, quartet or simply as a support of others in the group, participants are encouraged to sing where they feel comfortable and are supported to take risks. As we work on the songs at a deeper level than most choir experiences permit, we also deepen our understanding of singing, breath, how to support our voices more fully, and how to navigate our fear of singing in front of others. During this process, we are also invited to take the learnings and apply them to our lives.

Please Note: This class is the first of three sessions in our 2025-26 season. In the winter and spring sessions, we will continue to work towards a 45-minute performance in June of 2026.

If you or someone you know enjoys music and has always wanted to sing… even if you hold the belief that you may not have skills and/or talent… please know that you are welcome. I am passionate about teaching voice and look forward to supporting your exploration with our choir during our fall session!

We do not use sheet music, but instead, we use lyric sheets and audio tracks to learn the songs.

There is no class on October 23



What past participants have said...

"My participation in the class has been a positive and enriching experience. As an asthmatic, I have found the breathing exercises to be an invaluable aid in all my singing endeavors. The opportunities to sing alone and in small groups, all within a supportive environment, have resulted in increased confidence in every area of my life." -MC

"The breathing techniques we have learned from her are amazing. She will always challenge us in the very nicest way to achieve our potential. I still have a long way to go, but I look forward to singing every week. The relaxation techniques I have learned from her, help in my daily life as well." -JC

"There is no better way of staying in the present than getting out of your head and returning to your physical senses. Alison has taught us through dance, breathing, awareness and exercises to be in our bodies, to search for and hopefully dissolve the blockages of the past that are inhibiting us in song as well as in life. Throughout this journey Alison has gently guided us, molded us into a strong, supportive yet tender group of dear friends. Learning to sing is just the bonus. Thank you, Alison." -HJ
