What we do
Eight ways to bring voices together.
From corporate boardrooms to library reading rooms, every Withness experience invites people into the same thing — listening, singing, being present with one another.
Choir Development
Refine blend, expand range, and renew the love of singing. Workshops for existing choirs at any level — community, school, faith-based, or professional.
For Established choirs and ensembles
Vocal Exploration
A guided journey into your own voice — breath, resonance, body, and emotion. No prior experience needed. Most people are surprised by what they find.
For Curious singers and non-singers alike
Circle Songs
Let me introduce you to your voice. Improvised, loop-based group singing where every person becomes one layer of a living, shifting piece of music.
For Adventurous groups ready to play
Community Sing-alongs
Open, joyful gatherings where strangers become harmonies. Pop, folk, gospel, world — songs everyone half-remembers and is glad to sing again.
For Neighborhoods, events, festivals
Library Offerings
Story-and-song programming for public libraries — multigenerational, multilingual, and grant-friendly. Made for the people who already gather there.
For Public libraries & literacy programs
Music Wellness Labs
Music as nervous-system regulation. Combining voice, breath, and rhythm to reduce stress, improve mood, and reconnect body and breath in a group setting.
For Healthcare, wellness centers, nonprofits
Interactive Sound Bath
A sound bath you participate in. Voice, singing bowls, and gentle drones — guests both receive sound and contribute their own. Deeply restorative.
For Retreats, meditation centers, private events
Why Withness
Where presence is the practice.
i.
Builds real connection
Singing together coordinates breath, heartbeat, and attention. You feel it within minutes — strangers become a room. Coworkers become a team. Communities remember themselves.
ii.
Accessible to everyone
No experience, no training, no "I can't sing." Withness is designed for the room as it is — every voice belongs, every person contributes, no one is performing.
iii.
Transformative for teams
Decades of research and centuries of practice both point the same direction: groups that sing together communicate, trust, and create at a different level afterward.
Singing together is the oldest technology we have for being a community. Everything else — language, ritual, work, love — comes after the first voice that decided not to be alone.

From the room
What people say after.
"Our staff still talks about it. Francisco walked in with no agenda except listening, and somehow our whole school left more connected. Parents have asked when he's coming back."
"We tried the usual team-building activities for years. Two hours singing with Withness did more for our culture than any of them. People who never spoke at meetings now lead them."
"Our monthly sing-alongs at the library have become the most reliably joyful thing on our calendar. Francisco creates a room where anyone can step in mid-song and feel welcome."
