About this Event
Have you ever wanted to lead circle singing?
Are you curious what makes community based improvisational singing work?
Wonder what it's like to quickly and playfully get others to erupt in spontaneous song?
Led by singer, sound healing artist, and voice coach Davin Youngs, this workshop invites singers of all skill levels and abilities to hone their talents for leading improvisational singing and spontaneous song.
Please note: This workshop is limited to 20 participants.
Guided by the principles of improvisation championed by luminaries like Bobby McFerrin and Rhiannon, you will be expertly lead through a series of engaging games and exercises designed to deepen your understanding of how circle singing works. Once the foundational principals are in place, you'll get the opportunity to step in the middle and give it a try!
