Course overview
If you enjoy music, then this course is for you! We will be doing some listening and moving to music. You may like to follow some of the rhythms in the music and play or sing along.
There will be some old favourites for you to enjoy and maybe even remember the words. We may learn something new, just to give ourselves a bit of a challenge! We may even compose our own songs! But don’t worry, there will be plenty of help to make this easy! No experience is needed to take part in this course. Taking part will lift your spirits and make your heart sing!
The Reaching Out Programme classes are open to people living in the community that can have their needs met by the class. This is a class for people with a learning disability.
This course is for early booking only.
Course description
This course is open to anyone who enjoys music. You don’t need any prior experience. You will be free to move to the feel of the music if you want to and there will be a chance to join in with some of the rhythms when the mood takes you! We will be encouraging you to sing along…. Maybe you will remember some words of those familiar songs. If it’s something new, we will help you learn it slowly so that you get to know it easily, then there will be another song for you to enjoy!
We may choose a theme and make up a song together as a group…. This is exciting as we never know what might happen!
Singing and moving can help loosen up your body and help you breath more deeply. This will hopefully make you feel good. There will also be other people enjoying the music with you and sharing in it. This can be a really nice part of the course too.
