SongShine 2026 (Series 2)

This program harnesses the power of the brain, breath, and emotion to reclaim voices. Joani Bye will engage participants in uplifting sessions of SongShine, a program using singing, breath work, diction, articulation, and creative imagination exercises to strengthen voices affected by Parkinson’s or other neurological challenges. SongShine’s goal is to help you communicate more easily and clearly while facilitating a sense of community, camaraderie, and confidence in the process!

Join Joani for holistic, fun, and immersive sessions that will include the following:

• Singing favourite songs
• Relaxation
• Breathing exercises
• Tongue exercises (for articulation and swallowing)
• Linguistic and vocal instruction
• Imagination exercises

We welcome all individuals with Parkinson’s to this series, as well as their spouses and/or carepartners, as they may benefit from learning more about the disease to assist in supporting their loved ones.
