Relax, Breathe & Sing

We are thrilled to announce that a new block of 10 Relax, Breathe & Sing sessions will start on Wednesday 24th September 11am-12.30pm.

Relax, Breathe & Sing sessions are designed to bring health benefits, so regular attendance is encouraged. Each session includes social time, gentle warm-ups, breathing exercises, harmony singing, and a relaxing wind-down. Plus, you'll learn techniques to practice at home.

Discover the powerful benefits of group singing. It’s fun, uplifting, and great for your mind, body, and soul. No experience needed — just bring your voice! Led by Helen Lyle, songs will be taught by ear and all voices are welcome!

Helen has been teaching singing groups and community choirs locally for the last 30 years and is a long-standing member of the Natural Voice Network. More recently, she trained as a Singing for Lung Health leader with 'The Musical Breath'. She has been running our thriving online singing group since 2021. 

The sessions will take place at Shirley House, 31 Psalter Lane, Nether Edge, S11 8YL. Free parking available in the St. Andrew’s church car park right next door or on the street or you can use the 218 bus route.

COVID safety precautions for the next block: large room ventilated with open doors & windows, masks available for those who want them.
