Bridge Songs Community Choir (FALL Session 2025)

OFFERING SINGING AS A...

+ practice of mindfulness

+ medicine for grieving hearts

+ tool to calm and regulate the nervous system

+ way to build resiliency, in ourselves and community

+ cultivation of hope and joy

AS THE ECOLOGICAL, POLITICAL & SOCIAL SYSTEMS OF OUR WORLD breakdown, we have an incredible opportunity to come together and dream into being the new, sustainable, spiritually fulfilling and just world our hearts know is possible.

Now is the time, more than ever before, to fortify our spirits, nurture community connection, tend to our hearts, and illuminate the way forward in hope, compassion and love. This choir is a time and place to connect with your inner space, filling your cup so that you may feel rooted and fortified as you walk your path in the world.

WHAT ~

Each gathering includes a ritual opening and closing of the space, vocal warm ups, optional brief group check in, and simple, inspiring songs taught by ear.

This choir has no auditions and no performances. We sing to build our inner resilience and to strengthen our connection to each other and the greater family of life on planet earth.

WHO ~

All ages, races, genders, identities and abilities are welcome here. This is an intentionally anti-racist, LGBTQ+ inclusive space, and we welcome feedback to strengthen and assure the experience of this as a safe space for everyone.

Babies and children ARE welcome & ENCOURAGED, and, we also ask that you be prepared to step away with them temporarily if they are strongly distracting from the focused energy of the group.
