About this Event
Join Us for the 2nd Edition of Community Sing Circle: A Heart-Opening Journey of Song, Connection and Nourishment!
Are you ready to rediscover the joy of your voice in a safe, transformative space?
Step into a warm, welcoming, alcohol-free, all-ages, family-friendly gathering where voices unite, hearts open and connections deepen. Inspired by timeless traditions like campfire singalongs, kirtan-style circles and community choirs, Community Sing Circle isn’t about performing, it’s a guided, participatory experience that unlocks confidence, fosters emotional safety and celebrates the healing power of shared music.
Imagine immersing yourself in:
Familiar Songs & Harmonies: Sing along to beloved nostalgic tunes from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and now with gentle vocal guidance, no pressure, no judgment, just pure enjoyment as we blend voices in uplifting unity.
Guitar-Led Magic & Optional Instruments: Led by acoustic guitar, with space for your own portable instruments (like hand percussion or guitars) to add rhythm and flow, all curated for an inclusive, cohesive vibe.
Embodiment & Movement: Gentle practices to ground your body, release tension and connect your breath with your voice, turning self-consciousness into playful ease.
Nourishing Communal Dinner: End the evening with a shared, whole-food feast prepared by the renowned Chef Jeevi (aka The Laughing Chef).
As Sydney’s beloved plant-based pioneer, Jeevi brings joy and vitality to every bite with his gluten-free, dairy-free, peanut-free, vegetarian creations. Drawing from his Nepalese roots and certification as a Raw Food Chef from California’s Living Light Culinary Institute, Jeevi’s dishes are fun, flavourful and deeply nourishing, perfect for fuelling connections over laughter and conversation. He’s a staple at retreats, workshops and events across Australia, where his “make healthy food FUN” ethos transforms meals into memorable experiences.
Here, open hearts meet open minds in a genuine space for soulful chats and emotional grounding. No expectations, just good humans being human together, feeling culturally nourished, energised and less alone in a world that needs more of this.
This 2nd Edition will be held at Mona Vale Memorial Hall in the heart of the Mona Vale village and will feature collaborators:
