👉👉👉Update: The Loving Your Authentic Voice Workshop scheduled for Sunday 9/10 has been cancelled for community health reasons. Thank you to everyone who has been so supportive and encouraging!

(See ABOVE) Sunday, September 10, 2023, 7:30pm at UCC Church in Suquamish, WA. The Sunday Singers and Let’s Get Singing Present: Loving Your Authentic Voice, a 90 minute workshop to let go of past limiting beliefs & reclaim your natural joy in singing! In a fun, safe and nurturing atmosphere, learn how to identify and let go of old false beliefs about your singing. Have you ever stopped yourself from singing, even when you were ALONE because you flashed back to a moment where someone said, acted like or indicated you SHOULDN’T sing? Did you believe them and stop forever? Did you once try to sing in public and felt scared, embarrassed or ashamed, stopping as soon as you had begun? Did anyone ever tell you to “shut up” or “Just mouth the words”? Do you have music in your heart and soul but feel too scared to let it out? In this workshop we discover ways to let go of past painful experiences regarding our voice– or someone else’s–and to let go of judgment and come into our natural birthright as singers. EVERY HUMAN BEING IS A SINGER AND HAS THE RIGHT TO SING! Singing is fun, healthy and a doggone natural mode of expression for all people across the planet! We will use fun exercises, small and large group sharing, and group revelation to see just how common old limiting beliefs are and how to set them aside to move forward with JOY! Learning to love your natural singing voice is a powerful conduit to self-esteem, acceptance and overall health and well being. Join us and feel the happiness that freeing your voice can bring. UCC Suquamish Church is at 18732 NE Division Ave in Suquamish, WA. $20 Suggested Donation at the door. All Welcome. For more information, call 206-297-0791.
