Why Join?
Singing is more than just an activity, it brings significant benefits to our physical, emotional, and cognitive health. Whether you're singing solo or in a group, the positive effects are immense:
Physical Benefits: Singing supports respiratory health, strengthens the diaphragm, and even promotes heart health by reducing blood pressure
Mental Health Benefits: Through increased endorphins and dopamine, singing helps enhance mood, reduce stress, and provide cognitive stimulation. For older adults, singing can be a powerful tool to support memory and recall
Social Connections: Choir singing promotes a deep sense of belonging, helping to ease loneliness and boost self-esteem through group interaction
Resources
Our choir resources are designed to supports your journey of singing an connection across ages. We have included mindfulness techniques, guiding singers to connect with their breath, relax, and feel grounded. The resources also include a variety of vocal warm-ups that prepare the voice for singing, along with songwriting activities that encourage creativity and self-expression. To foster a sense of community, we provide engaging games and conversation starters that spark connection and meaningful dialogue through music, helping participants form bonds and share experiences across generations. We want singers to feel empowered to express themselves and connect with others through the joy of music.
