I am grateful for the community work and a safe container that Grisha and her organization has created. It helped me to deal with my ongoing grief in regards to what is happening in the world events. Kindness always is so appreciated especially these days. We touch one heart at the time and than we pay it forward and help to elevate others.

Sing with Osprey!

Note: This class is a Stellar Village production. Stellar Village is the sibling project to GSA that Grisha founded to explore topics of connection, relating and healing outside of the context of dog training. This class will remain on GSA as a sample of the amazing content that can be found on Stellar Village, and if you're a GSA Diamond Member you will have access to many Stellar Village live events (go to the Diamond Home Page to access the links to the live events!). If you're interested in more Stellar Village content, visit the Stellar Village website to learn more.

Theme: Learning to Belong

About Stellar Village Community Song Events:
Community singing is a heartfelt way to connect together, learn, and have an amazing time doing it! Normally it's done in person, but we can also do this on Zoom, bringing song leader and songwriter Osprey to your home or community.

In this recording we are all in our little Zoom boxes singing along with Osprey. We don't hear each other, just ourselves singing and the songleader, so when you are watching and singing along don't worry about how your voice sounds.

In most of our community singing sessions, the songleader will introduce each song and then teach 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).

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. 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.

  • 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.

  • 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).

  • 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, we won't hear you!).

  • Enjoy fun, caring, energetic guidance from songleader Osprey!

  • This webinar and whole lot more is included with a Diamond Membership All Access Pass. For one low price per month, you get access to all of our emotionally enriching dog courses. See if Diamond is right for you.

Meet the Songleader

Singer-songwriter, songleader, Butterfly Council Member

Osprey (they/them)

I am a nonbinary singer-songwriter and song leader (using they/them pronouns) descended from Scotch-Irish and German settler colonists. I write quirky, authentic lyrics about love, healing, community, justice, and our relationship with the planet.

My songs (such as Grief and Praise) have taken flight all over the U.S. through the community singing circuit. My catchy tunes go deep and stay in your head for days, but it’s all good because they hint at answers that are relevant to now.
A blend of queer-folk-pop (with a hint of 90’s R&B), the songs I write are genuine, heartfelt, and easy to sing along to. See ospreyfliesthenest.com for more info.
