Events, Workshops, Courses & Groups
Singing and making music together in a group can be one of the most moving and sublime experiences, as we step outside the mundane and connect – to both ourselves and one another – in a deep and profound way. It can feel nourishing, uplifting, and can also sometimes facilitate the acknowledgment and release of emotions we didn’t know we were carrying. Music-making together builds community and can help us feel a sense of belonging and acceptance.
 
Improvisation – with voices and/or instruments – is a key element of Anthea’s group work, as a trained and experienced Lifemusic & Vox Anima facilitator. Improvisation can allow us to trust, let things flow, and build our confidence in a therapeutic and rewarding way. Lifemusic is a playful and accessible method with nurturing underlying principles, including that everyone is musical and there are no wrong notes.
Anthea has led many group workshops and courses over the years, tailored to the requirements of the group or a commissioning organisation, and all with a focus on wellbeing through music-making. These include:
 
Free Your Voice – Vocal Improvisation
The Art of Songwriting
Confidence Building using Lifemusic
Singing for Health & Wellbeing
Stoughton Hearts & Voices Community Choir (set up & led, 2015-2018)
 
And many more! Contact Anthea if you want to discuss your organisation or community’s requirements and arrange a tailored workshop, course, retreat, event or other group work.
