Community Choirs
Come and experience the deep bliss of singing together in harmony. We are all born singers. Some of us have forgotten. Choirs are a great pace to remember.
Singing is our birthright. It is ancient an ancient practice to heal, to celebrate, to grieve, to give thanks. When we sing together we have an embodied experience of ourselves as resonant beings - not to mention the endorphins (happy hormones), core muscle building, and deep sense of belonging.
"Thank you so much for bringing us the medicine of song, my life is different when I sing, it’s a blessing"
So, if you haven't already, join a choir and find out what all the fuss is about! Sophia runs two weekly choirs - Hackney Harmony in east London, and Zu Choir, in Lewes, East Sussex. There are many types of choirs and choir leaders out there. Sophia teaches very much in alignment with the Natural Voice style, whose approach is about celebrating the voice you were born with, rather than trying to train it to an ideal of perfection. It's about building accepting, non-judgmental communities that sing together. It's about welcoming all voices into a group without audition and working from there to make a group sound. It's about making learning by ear accessible to the whole group so that nobody needs to be able to read music. Visit the website to find information on other Natural Voice choirs.
