Welcome to You Gotta Sing! Chorus

a joyful weekly

singing practice 

for every voice!

Together --

 

through the magic of accessible harmony that's inviting to learn by ear; 

fun and effective vocal warmups that bring vitality and ease to the voice;

and a curated list of beautiful, heart-lifting songs that just feel good to sing -- ​

we strengthen and condition our voices; 

deepen and expand our breath;

and tap into our sense of aliveness and wellbeing

in this safe, and supportive singing space!

And YOU'RE invited!

No singing experience necessary. All sounds are good sounds.

Singing is our birthright.

Vanessa brought such confidence out in me to sing! She allowed us a freedom to sing that is not often experienced. The freedom to try it all and not be labelled or stuck in one place!!

Her positive attitude and encouragement skills are life giving.
