Singing is one of the most natural and joyful ways to express ourselves. Whether you’ve always wanted to sing but didn’t know where to start, or you’re looking to build confidence in a supportive group setting, this class is designed to help you take that first step.

Join us as we explore the foundations of singing in a welcoming, beginner-friendly environment. Together we’ll learn songs, experiment with harmony, and begin building the skills needed to sing with greater ease and confidence. This class is specifically designed for beginners and anyone curious about discovering their voice in a positive, encouraging space. We will touch on a variety of important vocal topics to give you awareness and practical tools, without diving deeply into advanced technique.

  • Exercises to help you produce a clear, confident tone without strain
  • Gently exploring the different parts (or “registers”) of your voice so you can move through your range more smoothly
