Song Circle with Daniel Nelson! (Coming all the way from Kauai!)
Presented by Singing in Love (SiL)
Community singing is a technology that many cultures have used for centuries to gather, grieve, celebrate and experience life. We will come together to revive and relive this tradition in the world we find ourselves in now with songs born from within our community. Daniel will teach songs call and response, in a circle unamplified. This is a secular space, focused on songs that nourish and support a sense of community, belonging, and self love. There will be rounds, part songs, harmonies and unison with any and all voices embraced, celebrated and welcomed. No experience necessary!
More about Daniel:
Daniel's childhood life was formed in deep relationship with the wild jungles and ocean on the island of Borneo, learning the language and songs and teachings of that land and those waters. His life is now lived on the island of Kauai where he directs a choir called Sacred Earth. Leading song circles is such a passionate joy, witnessing the depth and beauty of community gathering to join voices and hearts. Let's Sing!

Children
Children are welcome to join us at no cost . Song circles can be a very sensitive and delicate experience, so we ask that the gardian is very mindful of minimizing disruption and distraction in order to honor and respect those holding space and teaching songs, as well as fostering a conducive environment for participants to be able to feel the fullness of what song circles can bring up.
Something to be aware of
Although song circles can be extremely uplifting, singing can also potentially activate deeper emotions to arise (such as grief).
We look forward to singing with you!
