Why sing?

Singing has beneficial effects on heart rates and mood, emotional states and relaxation. Apart from providing a chance to develop artistic and musical skills, it can uplift people, create more positive attitudes and promote relaxation; and singing in choirs offers a social dimension that enhances people’s lives.

GLEE CLUB is more than just singing…….

Let’s work on Life skills:

  • Communication and social skills – in practicing and performing but also in a social environment that provides opportunities to improve social communication.
  • Teamwork and problem-solving, which can often be easier to develop in smaller groups
  • Leadership and taking responsibility – in a singing group, adults can develop skills by planning and leading songs, as well as working cooperatively within the group.
