Sing for Fun and Wellbeing

This wonderful fun vocal workshop provides a relaxed, casual atmosphere where you can develop your awareness of the power of the human voice and of course experience the joy of simply singing.

Angela, an accomplished vocalist, musician and teacher, will guide you through basic singing techniques, posture, and warm ups. You will also learn how to breathe more effectively and efficiently.

Group work will encompass relaxation techniques including meditation, breath control, chants, rounds, sing-a-longs, toning and basic harmony work. Singers of all levels are welcome, however no experience is necessary and there is no pressure on anyone to sing alone.

Topics covered in the half day workshop:

• Why sing?
• Relaxation and Meditation
• Importance of the Breath
• Posture, Warm Ups and Voice Play
• Starting to Sing

A qualified Workplace Trainer, Angela is able to offer individually structured workshops to meet a variety of needs. Angela offers, on request, workshops in the following areas:

Early Childhood Music Workshop for Educators and Carers

As well as being an accomplished private music teacher, Angela has gained a wealth of experience in the specialised area of Early Childhood Music. Angela has trained as a Kindermusik® teacher and has provided early music education to Childcare Centres, and has run her own program of early music classes from her home studio.

A qualified Workplace Trainer, Angela has developed a half day training program for those who work in the childcare or family day care environment, or for carers or parents who want to learn more about introducing music to their young charges. Most childcare professionals are well aware of the great benefits and joy music can have with young children but many lack the confidence in their abilities to fully explore this wonderful arena. The half day workshop, entitled "Colour Their World With Music", has been designed specifically for educators and carers to encourage and assist them to feel empowered and confident when providing musical education to children in their care.

Workshop coverage includes:

• benefits of music for the young child
• age appropriate music and movement activities
• how to structure music time activities
• sourcing appropriate musical material
• using different musical genres and traditions
• basic singing and breathing techniques to empower and support the voice
