Sing Out Loud! Workshop for Social Service Professionals
This one-day programme draws from the core principles of Sing Out Loud! , an Esplanade community engagement programme conceptualised in partnership with Dementia Singapore in 2016. It will allow participants to gain:
- An understanding of the person-centered approach in using music as a tool to engage persons with dementia
- Effective music improvisation techniques
- The practice of using percussion instruments, visual aids, and resources in their sessions
