High Energy Welcome!
/I was warmly greeted by a group of very excited kids at Birkdale on Tuesday. Before we even got started, a bunch of kids were running up to talk to me about how much they love music and dancing. We had a good introduction where the kids were eager to share which instruments they liked, how music makes them feel, etc. Then, we did some warm ups in a standing circle, starting with introductions where the kids had some fancy moves, which really broke the ice. We worked on breathing techniques and singing in different dynamics, and the kids were responsive to hand cues for when to go high/low and loud/soft. We finished off by breaking into groups and explored singing in two part harmony. They sounded great! We'll be singing full songs in no time.
