Description

The Presence Effect Choir is a welcoming and inclusive space for anyone who wants to sing, connect, and be more present — no experience necessary! Whether you’re new to choir or a seasoned singer, this is a space for joy, fun, and community.

We will sing music shaped by what you and the group love, pop music and music from many genres! Uplifting and meaningful songs from world music traditions. Some in English, others in different languages. Songs from circle singing and original compositions.

Key ways in which singing with The Presence Effect Choir can boost your wellbeing:

• Reduces stress and anxiety through calming breath and voice work
• Enhances emotional regulation by connecting with present-moment awareness
• Promotes mental clarity and reduces overthinking
• Boosts mood through endorphin release from singing
• Supports mindfulness practice in a joyful, embodied way
• Improves breathing and lung capacity through vocal technique
• Lowers blood pressure and heart rate via relaxed, meditative singing
• Supports nervous system regulation through rhythmic and harmonic resonance
