Circle Singing with Kappé Rousseau

Circle Singing is collective vocal improvisation: making stuff up and singing it together on the fly.

The facilitator creates melodies and sings them to sections of the circle. Layers of harmonies, rhythms, counter rhythms spring up with no written music. Participants will get the experience of hearing their part as an integral piece of the whole experience. The facilitator offers the pulse, feel and vibe of the flow of emotion.

My passion for musical creativity started at an early age when I became bored with piano lessons. I had to ‘practice’ or at least ‘play’ the piano every day for an hour. I started making things up – changing things up and re-arranging the music. Later in life, I lived in NYC for a time and I created a business of ‘arranging’ music for artists who were looking to attract interest in their songs. I can hear where the music is going in my head and then lay it out, or play it out.

I’ve played professionally as part of a group and solo for years. I have a background in classical/orchestral performance in percussion. My main instrument is piano and I am just as comfortable with guitar in open tunings. I have a BA in Music from U.C. Berkeley. My background in Circle Singing is from Oakland California and the Circle Singing team of Bobby McFerrin. I decided to bring Circle Singing anywhere I can so that people can experience the power of the collective voice and also tap deeply into their inner being and soul and SING!

Qigong: Tools for Self-healing
1-1/4 hour class With Beth Freewomon

Qigong (A.K.A. Chi Gong) is a moving meditation technique that not only improves physical fitness, but also assists us in achieving a deeper sense of calm, relieves tension and stress, and helps us recover from injury and illness. It is part of the ancient systems of Taoism and Chinese medicine that value the interconnectedness and inherent wholeness of all of our Self and our body’s seeming parts. Qigong supports our bodies’ natural capacity for self-healing. Qigong allows us to relax, get out of “fight or flight” and our parasympathetic nervous system to take over so healing can happen. Our practice includes conscious breathing, stretching, activation of chi, flowing movements and more.
