documented positive impact.
StarSong Music’s group singing opportunities promote good lung function, as well as good mental, physical and social health.

Groups sing simple songs that many people already know.
Gentle, chair-based movements warm-up the body and are appropriate to people of all shapes and sizes.
Meet new, interesting people and share your journey
Short mindfulness activities coordinate breath, body and mind helping you calm stress and anxiety.
StarSong groups are not choirs! Singing is a tool we use to learn better breathing. There is no judgement here!! So, if you can speak, come and sing!!!
NO! StarSong is not classified as Music Therapy! Music Therapy is provided by specially trained and credentialed professionals who use music interventions to achieve clinical, individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship.
StarSong is proud to be a part of the world-wide Arts & Health community.
The Arts & Health concept stems from a grassroots movement that investigates how the arts can be useful for a broader range of health benefits. Although it is evident that music and the arts provide enjoyment, through research and practice, the field of Arts & Health is providing valuable alternatives and implementing methods useful to many ailments such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and COPD, along with many others!
