Do you yearn for more SONG in your life? Do you have a desire to dive
into your creativity to share and express in a soul-centered group that prioritizes
your heart songs AND upholds integrous song sharing? Do you feel blocked in your creative expression and need a container to support, invigorate, and inspire you?
I've been called the 'midwife of song' by countless clients who've come to reignite their unexplored creative dreams, and it would be my absolute honor to do the same for you.
I hold a deeply safe space where mistakes are celebrated and edges are
stretched to help you BLOOM into your song.
Bloom is the perfect container for those either totally new at making music or for those who have been strumming and writing for years. If you're new to playing music, join us in Seedlings! If you are a solid beginner/early intermediate join us in Sproutling. Not sure which group you fit in? Click here for the quiz!
COVID19 Safety:
We are requiring all participants to take a rapid test anytime we meet in person. If you have any symptoms or have been exposed to someone with COVID within 7 days we will be practicing community care and asking you to not to join us unless you can take a rapid PCR the day of.
Due to the ever-evolving nature of COVID, we may implement a last minute requirement for a rapid PCR test taken on site which we will provide. We will inform you 3 days in advance if this would be a necessary route. This would only happen if we are in a sincere spike.
Our daylongs will take place at our amazing Retreat Center, Joy Hill, in Occidental-
30 minutes from Sebastopol / 1 hr from Marin / 1 hr 20 min from Berkeley or SF
