With Ana Hernandez

Church of the Holy Trinity, 316 East 88th Street, Manhattan

This workshop will enable us to deepen our community of practice through the shared creation of sound and silence. We will listen deeply to the spirit within, reclaim the joy of group learning by rote, utilize repetition, and engage our oft-ignored ability to harmonize on the spot. With simple chants and global songs, we'll have a day of transformation and deep fun. Sing your way to your sweetest identity, individually and collectively, each person open to sharing more of who they are becoming and confident that the spiritual work they do to become their best selves will be honored and be integrated into the larger community.  Requested donation: $20 (includes lunch).
