Singing and somatic practice are one container offering a space to practice working through our grief, pain, and conflict.
About this Event

How do we find our way through personal, cultural, and systemic trauma towards resilience? Our culture is honestly pretty terrible at having community rhythms to process this and tools to live towards growth. Singing and somatic practice are one container offering a space to practice working through our grief, pain, and conflict towards finding joy, courage and connection.

Inspired by the STAR training, you’re invited to a monthly community song circle of simple songs, taught call and echo, and somatic practices to check in with how our bodies are processing. You don’t need to “be a singer” - we’re not singing to perform; we sing because it changes us.
What to Bring:

To make the most of our time together, please remember to bring the following items:

-Water to stay hydrated throughout the event

-Clothes that are suitable for easy movement

-Yoga mats, pillows, and blankets for your comfort during somatic practices

-A journal and pen for any reflections or insights you may wish to jot down


Parking info: Taken from the New City Church website, "There is plenty of free street parking around the building."


COVID-19 Precautions:

We remain committed to your safety and well-being. Depending on the current COVID-19 situation, you may be required to wear a mask during the event. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility as we navigate these circumstances together.
