Learn to embrace the natural nuances of your voice, gain confidence in your abilities as a singer at all stages, and learn how to assess and safely explore new techniques all on your own!

with Julianne McLaughlin, Sacopee Valley Adult & Community Education

Are you addicted to sugar? Do you find yourself craving a sweet treat in the late afternoon or after dinner?

In this seminar, we will learn the basics to “Clean Eating” and transform the foods that you eat into foods that fuel your body! Learn about whole foods vs. processed foods, hidden forms of sugar, ways to supercharge your metabolism, cooking outside the box, the secret to feeling full and reducing food cravings, and so much more. Determine between which sweeteners to avoid and which ones to enjoy. This workshop encourages lively discussion and questions from participants!
