Tara will be launching her new project VoxSling in January 2026 - thanks to support from Sound Connections.
The first 4-week taster course is FREE for all to attend and will be run in partnership with East Sussex Early days. Aswell as the group singing there will be opportunties for discussions around birth prep, breast feeding and the journey into motherhood.
(for pregnant and new mothers with babes in arms/slings - under 8 months)
WHAT IS VOXSLING?
A new weekly series of nurturing and creative Singing workshops for pregnant and new mothers with part harmony songs, gentle movement and breathwork.
FREE 4 week Pilot course @Clifton Centre, St Leonards
Tuesdays 11.30am - 12.30
January 20th & 27th, February 3rd & 10th
Arrive from 11.30 to gather, chat, have tea
Singing starts 11.45am
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE WORKSHOPS:
Tara will lead the group through a series of gentle breathing exercises and some movement.
We will learn a collection of easy yet satisfying part harmony songs - so you will have a bank of songs to continuing singing at home - you don't need to be a confident singer to join!
These workshops are for you the parents and soon to be parents, with your babes-in-arms being bathed in sound (Sling wearing encouraged to support movement)
Why singing? - there is so much research into the benefits of singing for new mothers, and in turn the support singing can have on language and emotional development of your child and soon to be born child.
With thanks to our funders
