Have Some Faith in the Sound

The Soundtrack of my Life

In May of 2019 I facilitated a four session workshop in Mindfulness, teaching more the science behind how our memory and learned habits help or inhibit our best functioning in the moment. I started each meeting with a song and dance -- just to really keep the energy high. There's few songs I like better for its energy than George Michael's anthem, Freedom '90. My participants didn't get a professional, edited video performance from me...just me being willing to Acapella and engage the the hips

The 2017 Pitch Perfect sequel features a performance of just Freedom, but I have selected this brief video promo which hints at the effective use of Freedom in the denouement of Pitch Perfect 3. Freedom blended with that first Pitch Perfect stand-out "cups moment" sung by Anna Kendrick is a neat little medley. If only I could be part of a ensemble and just need to nail a bit of some iconic piece, as most of them are doing. Yet, pretty sure that is even more exhausting than performing live once, huh?
