Mama Sings • new class starting

Mama Sings ~ San Rafael
4 classes starting Thursday 8th October from 10-11am $75
A singing group for caregivers & their babies
Mama Sings is an a capella singing group specifically designed to nourish & support moms & dads as well as their babies. Singing together is not only a great way to get your singing voice in shape, but is also a great way of developing a sense of community.
Breathing, stretching and vocal warm-ups at the beginning of each session help to ground the singing mom's and help them to focus on the community they are with right now (not worrying about the diaper service bill that needs to be paid later!). After warming up our voices and bodies I will guide you through some simple singing technique and through the weeks will teach you lullabies from many different traditions, how to write your own lullabies and songs outside of the lullaby realm depending on the interest of the group.
Singing together is an amazing support that can help people through the hardest of times and while it's accepted that being a new parent is a magical time, and it truly is, it can also be a very trying time when the need for support and community has never been greater.
