LIVE Parkinson's Sing-along (virtual option available)

A fun and supportive hybrid in person and "virtual" song circle to practice projection, voice control and coordination through the joy of singing! Each session will start with a practice vocal warm-up and then sing your favorite songs with guitar accompaniment.

Next sessions are October 30, November 20 and our Holiday sing a long will be December 18th at 2:00-3:00pm
