Community singing is a heartfelt way to connect together, learn, and have an amazing time doing it! Our community song events are teaching songs, usually a capella (without instruments or with light instrumentation in service of the song).
Normally, people teach each other songs in person, but we can also do this on Zoom, bringing Brooklyn-based song leader and vocal empowerment coach Sheniqua Trotman to your home or community.
Here's how it works online. We will all be in our little Zoom boxes singing along with Sheniqua (cameras on or off). We won't hear each other, just ourselves singing and the songleader, so don't worry about how your voice sounds.
In most of our community singing sessions, the songleader will introduce each song and then teaches it at the pace we need, with us being able to repeat the song in our living rooms or wherever we are at (microphones off). Sheniqua has the option to let folks in the Zoom session unmute for parts (one at a time), but the default is that your mic is off. We'll also have a question period at the end.
You don't have to sing alone - you're welcome to bring friends to the Zoom! You can have a group of people at your place participating, on or off camera (on is usually more fun for the songleader). The only caveat is that you don't charge others for it. If you want to do that, please contact us and we'll discuss fair reciprocity.
After the session, we'll have the option of going into breakout groups (smaller Zoom groups) to talk with each other in response to a prompt. You are at choice and don't have to participate in the breakout groups.
See you on September 24, 2024, 10 am - 11:30 am pacific time. The live session will also be recorded for people who sign up but can't make it live, or for attendees to watch later.

Singers of all levels welcome! If you don't sing professionally or believe you don't sing "well" we especially invite you to attend! All voices are good voices (also, attendees have mics off, so won't hear you!).
Enjoy fun, caring, energetic guidance from songleader Sheniqua!
