Welcome to Singing Roots

Therapeutic singing circles in and around Sussex
Singing roots us; it connects us to ourselves and is never the same experience twice. When we do it in a group, it can connect us to more and when we do it in nature it can connect us to more still.
As a psychotherapist, I weave my many years of training and experience into my circles, enabling me to create these uniquely curated therapeutic singing experiences. My circles aren't about judging yourself, or being perfectly in tune or in time, they are simply an invitation to turn up just as you are and trust yourself just enough to bring your voice and be held by the circle.
In order to provide this environment, I keep numbers low so that each person in the circle can feel met and held and to allow for a fully immersive, connected, nurturing and therapeutic experience.
I currently run the following regular singing circles:
The Woodland Circle - Nurturing Singing Circle:
Held in private woodland, on the 2nd Saturday of the month, 10am-12.30pm, all welcome.
The Wolf Pack - Therapeutic Women’s Singing Circle :
A monthly women’s circle held on the last Friday evening of each month, 7-9pm.

Please note - I always have a low cost/free space available, so if cost is a barrier and would prevent you from coming, please contact me directly to discuss.
See below for more details of each of these circle…
Please note that by coming to one of my singing circles you agree to the terms and conditions.
The Wolf Pack - A Therapeutic Women’s Circle:
The last Friday of each month, 7-9pm, in private woodlands and a cosy loft studio space in Furner’s Green.
£30/£25 (concs)
The Wolf Pack is a nurturing women's circle that offers a moment in your month where the pace can slow down and you can be the one being held. For each of these uniquely crafted circles I create a bespoke ritual to support the theme that we are working with each month. More often than not, you will have something to take home with you in which to root the work and the songs held in our time together. Each circle will be a bit different, but will always involve a gentle check in, some singing and some time in ritual or quiet with blankets and relaxing oils for your hands. This circle is open to anyone who identifies as woman
The Woodland Circle - Nurturing Singing Circle:
The second Saturday of each month, 10am-12.30pm in private woodlands, (In wet and cold weather, we meet in the beautiful Conker Room), Barcombe.
£25/£20 (concs).
Held in the woods amongst the trees - connect with yourself, the land and each other. This nurturing group is a bit longer to allow time for quiet at the end, with oils for our hands and blankets for our comfort. This ending ritual lets the songs and harmonies sink in and gifts a moment for ourselves before heading back to life! The circle is held in beautiful woodland and goes ahead whatever the weather, so be sure to bring whatever you may need to keep yourselves comfortable.
This is a mixed circle, open to all adults.
Upcoming dates…
Singing Roots; Saplings Circle
Sunday 1st November 2026, 10am - 12pm, Chelwood Gate Village Hall (and woods).
Open to all adults, young people and children over the age of 8.
Tickets - Adult - £20, Children (8-16 years) - £10, Family (max. two adults and three children) - £55
When we sing together, something truly unique happens that is hard to describe. It is never the same twice, can only happen with others and will be experienced differently by each and every member of the circle. There is something truly special about sharing that magic with young people in your life. That's why I am offering a Singing Roots; Saplings circle - to extend the magic of the circle to the next generation!
All adults, young people and children over the age of 8 years old are welcome in this circle, where we will do a short internal check in, warm up a little and then sing. There will, as always, be time for a short ritual to let the songs really land in our bodies and then we will sing some more! Those who want to sing can sing, those who want to sit and listen to the singing, or just be in the space can do that. This could be a beautiful opportunity for you and your young person to sing together, or a moment for them to be surrounded by the harmonies of the circle. (Please note - all children must be accompanied by an adult. You are responsible for your own child(ren) at all times.)
This circle is held in a cosy hall in Chelwood Gate, next to some beautiful woods. If the weather is nice, we will have the option on singing int he fairy hut in the woods.
Please note: Whilst the circle is inclusive of older children, you don't have to bring a child or young person with you to come! You are welcome to come alone and enjoy not being responsible for anyone other than yourself!
This is an outdoor event and there is a short 2-3 minute walk to where we will be singing. If you have any mobility concerns or any questions at all, please get in touch and I will do my best to answer them.
Tickets available to purchase directly through me via BACS, or on Eventbrite here.
Winter Solstice Singing Circle
Monday 21st December 2026, 7-9pm, The Conker Room, Barcombe.
Open to all adults and children over 10 years old.
Tickets - Adult: £20, Concessions: £17, Child (10-16 years old): £12, Family (Max. 2 adults and 2 children): £60
Join me for this Winter Solstice Singing Circle, when we will be marking the longest night of the year, moving from the darkness into welcoming the returning sunlight.
We will gather in the cosy Conker Room, next to St Mary's Church before heading outside to sing a song or two by candlelight. After a short time, we will head back into our cosy circle inside for more singing and a little ritual to acknowledge how we have been wintering and what we hope for the lengthening days ahead.
Be held by the harmonies and the circle, take a moment to reflect on any endings or new beginnings you may be walking with or welcoming in and enjoy solstice moment.
Whilst this circle will be open to and welcomes young people over 10 years old, the intention of the circle will be honouring the solstice - the longest night, rest, wintering, germinating and new beginnings - so it will be a nourishing, gentle and cosy circle and I leave it to you to decide if this is something your young person will enjoy.
Open to everyone - all adults and young people (over 10 years). No experience necessary - all parts will be taught by ear.
Tickets available to purchase directly through me via BACS, or on Eventbrite here.
Please note - I always have a low cost/free space available, so if cost is a barrier and would prevent you from coming, please contact me directly to discuss.
