Do your friends and family often ask you to speak up? You are not alone! Approximately 89% of people with Parkinson’s experience changes in their ability to communicate (NPF, 2014). These weekly, music-centered wellness classes are just the thing you are looking for! Singing and speech use similar mechanisms. Singing requires more effort than speech, but you wouldn’t know it, as it is intrinsically enjoyable. We use vocal warm-ups/exercises, strategically chosen songs, and group discussion to exercise the
voice and to develop a stronger self-awareness of how to use the voice more effectively. An at-home practice component is provided and highly encouraged. This unique, fun, and motivating musical group experience makes a real
difference in communication, mood and social connection.
Our classes occur weekly and follow a structured format. A typical class might include the following:
🎵 Warm-up exercises to reduce tension, connect to the breath, and stretch muscles related to speech
🎵 Vocal exercises to warm-up the voice and to address specific skills
🎵Strategically Chosen Repertoire using familiar and preferred music. The songs are motivating and also focus on specific skills.
🎵Group conversation to practice and provide opportunities for connection and support
