About this Event
In Vocal Flow, we’ll explore the concept of "flow"—that effortless, spontaneous state where music emerges naturally from within. Through vocal improvisation, you’ll discover how to let go of perfection and embrace the thrill of experimentation and connection. Every week, you'll be guided to move past self-doubt and unlock new ways to express yourself vocally.
The heart of the course is circle singing, a powerful practice of creating music together in real time. As you join in with fellow participants, you will develop confidence in your vocal abilities while honing your musical ear and intuitive sense of rhythm. You’ll experience the unique energy that arises from a group of voices coming together, supporting one another in a seamless, collaborative flow. Whether we’re harmonising, creating spontaneous melodies, or exploring rhythmic patterns, every session will be a celebration of collective creativity and shared sound.

By the end of the six weeks, you'll leave feeling more attuned to your voice, with new skills to confidently improvse and create music both on your own and with others. Whether you're looking to deepen your vocal practice, enhance your musicality, or simply have fun exploring sound in community, this course offers a nurturing space to grow and be inspired. Vocal Flow is more than just a class—it’s a journey of self-expression, musical discovery, and community-building.
This course is designed for those with some prior experience and confidence in singing, who would like to develop their skills in a supportive musical community. However - if you’re a keen and committed beginner - we’d still love to hear from you - just drop us a line. The course will be structured around the group that signs up.
Led by internationally recognised facilitator, Jane Bentley, places are limited to 15 - to foster group development and interconnection. Bring your curiosity, your voice, and your willingness to explore!
This will run weekly on Tuesdays, 6.30 - 8pm, until 1st April. This is a course, so when you book, the cost covers the whole of the 6 week course.
