Traditionally, winter is a time for rest and retreat, a period of germination and preparation for springtime renewal. However, after the hustle and bustle of Christmas and New Year celebrations, many of us find that our nervous systems are a bit frazzled and in need of a reset. This voice and singing workshop will help you transition from an [activated nervous system (fight-or-flight state) to a calmer ‘rest and digest’ mode](https://bhma.org/polyvagal-theory-and-community-singing/). Since most of us spend too much time in a state of stress, it is crucial to learn how to activate a calmer, healing state of being. Singing and voice work have been proven to help regulate the nervous system, [bringing many mental and physical health benefits](https://fullcirclechange.ie/offerings/self-care/singing/). Through meditative chants, vocal practices and harmony songs, this workshop will help you sink into a deeper, more mindful state and provide you with some simple tools for harnessing the voice to continue this practice into 2026. Join us to reflect on this transition into the New Year and set some powerful intentions through the voice. Adults of all ages and abilities are welcome. You don’t need any singing or voice-work experience, and no one will be asked to sing solo. This is a relaxed, friendly and safe space, and participants frequently report leaving feeling recharged, grounded, and uplifted. Harmony singing is extremely beneficial to our physical, mental and spiritual health and wellbeing, and you will leave feeling recharged, grounded, and uplifted. Adults of all ages and abilities are welcome. You don’t need any singing or voice-work experience, and no one will be asked to sing solo. This is a relaxed, friendly and safe space.

**Caller: Gaye Fifer** **Band: Hot Coffee Breakdown** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
