Fall Begins

Our Fall session, "Christmastime" is well underway. We have enjoyed rehearsing in our new location at the Charter Colony "Village" clubhouse. Here is a little more info. as to what we do each week at YMS!

Each rehearsal includes both physical warm-ups and vocal warm-ups. Singing actually uses a lot of muscles and needs strengthening and loosening up like a lot of other physical activities.

A quick physical warm-up after the stresses of a long day!

A GENTLE massage often ends in laughing!

Every week we have a lesson on a vocal technique or skill that we use throughout our rehearsals and in performances. We hope these lessons will benefit each child's singing but also their public speaking and any other performance opportunity.

Can you see all our "lions"? Just wait 'till you see the "lemons".

We obviously do a lot of singing every week but we also require the singers to exhibit confidence, poise, learn staging, and memorize choreography.
 
A little dramatic? But, of course.
Phew! No wonder we all sleep so well on Thursday nights!
