Sharing the Music - Song Leader Training
It's been such a joy over the years to pass on the beauty and inspiration that I was gifted by my father. There is a certain heart-felt quality that he once and I now lead our workshops with that people really want to learn to embody. There are so many hidden tools and unseen skills in being a clear and direct teacher whist maintaining a heartfelt, listening mood in groups and it is my absolute joy to share during these trainings, all the layers of the things I have discovered since I first started teaching when I was 18.
Susie is now running her popular Sharing the Music facilitator training both in person and online, to make it accessible wherever you are in the world!
She has been leading workshops and choirs since she was 18 and has dedicated the last 16 years to this path, sharing her passion for harmony singing both in the UK and internationally. During this time she has taught everything from intimate groups to leading hundreds in song at festivals and regardless of the size of event, she has seen the immense power and incredible healing that can be accessed through singing together.
THIS TRAINING IS FOR
~ Anyone holding a tiny see of a dream to share song with others ~
~ Those who already lead song in some way and just want to gather some inspiration ~
~ Those who would like to integrate singing into the groups they already facilitate ~
