Sunrise Sing Series Fall '26 | Arnold Arboretum
About this Event
Come join a cohort of participants committed to 4 weeks of rising and singing together, witnessing the transition into Fall, deepening our relationship with the Earth, and building a shared practice of music and embodiment.
In this series, we are excited to welcome elena elizabeth henrick as a co-facilitator. In addition to our regular practices of singing & connecting with nature, we will experiment with bringing in more somatic exercises, movement, and sound baths.
Commitment: we meet 4 Thursdays in a row, from 7:00-8:15am, on 10/29, 11/5, 11/12, and 11/19. Participants must be able to join the first circle on 10/29.
About the Facilitators:
Jordan Mudd is a songleader, grief tender, vocal coach, co-founder of Boston-Area Singing Circles, and an avid explorer of the Arboretum. Learn more about him and listen to his music at www.jordanmudd.com
elena elizabeth hendrick is a transformational facilitator of personal and collective learning, healing, and ritual experiences. Her accompaniment embodies a practice of presence and deep listening, co-creating space with participants that gives way for trust, curiosity, courage, and new awareness. As a somatic practitioner, she co-creates space that invites the wisdom of our body to emerge, moving us towards release and healing, and eventually liberation. elena also brings years of leadership and practice in the communal work of creating cultures of peace.
Together, they bring a unique blend of style and energy, a trust in each other and in the collective, and their shared commitment to listening for what the moment is asking for.
