“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “New Beginning Beats (2026)”!

Hi, everyone!

Happy New Year!

Whether you celebrate New Year’s or went to bed early, the turning to the new page of the calendar does bring with it the turning to new pages of all sorts of chapters. Many deadlines happen at the end of the year. Many projects don’t begin until the start of the year. These can be outside decisions outside of our control, but they can also be convenient time markers for our own decisions.

All these endings and beginnings also make it a prime time to take some of our own steps. We can start anew anytime we want, even if it’s just step by step… those steps add up!

So let’s motivate ourselves to take that step as we step to the beat into the new year to a batch of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Haunting Holiday Harmonies (2025)”!

Hi, everyone!

For our second holiday jam session… let’s be honest, as much fun as the holiday season can be… sometimes, it’s just not. It can be frustrating. Overwhelming. Stressful. Everyone’s supposed to feel happy and celebrate the holidays in a very specific way, and if you deviate from any of these very specific standards, you can get… iced out. And some people are grumps who won’t be satisfied until everyone’s as miserable as they are. Whether you’re on the naughty list, a Scrooge or Grinch, or just frustrated things aren’t going your way right now, come vent with us on the dark side!

Jam with us to a host of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Getting into the Spirit of the Season Songs (2025)”!

Hi, everyone!

We’ve waited long enough! It’s officially after Thanksgiving and officially December, so let’s defrost another series on Jammin’ with Jamie holiday harmonies! No matter which holiday you celebrate this time of year, if you just like winter, or if you’re hunkered down in your heated bunker until the world thaws out in… let’s be honest, May, jam with us this December for holiday harmonies, with a different theme every week!

For our first holiday jam session, if you feel like you haven’t really gotten into the season yet, now’s the perfect time! We’re putting up the decorations, walking our first crunching steps in the snow… warming up our bodies and voices by dancing and singing to these songs!

Jam with us to a snowfall of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Haunting Holiday Harmonies (2024)”!

Hi, everyone!

Yes, the holiday season is a time for giving, for hope, for showing love and forgiveness… There’s a lot of good and joy in the season! … But there’s also a dark side.

From holiday annoyances, to post-holiday blues, to loneliness, to the grumps who see the slightest smile and scoff, “Humbug!”, whether they’re celebrating in unconventional ways or grunting and groaning their way through the season with hearts as cold as the weather outside… sometimes, you just have to let those frustrations out! … In a healthy way!

Join us as we gather for a healthy jam session of…
