Judy Hausman Leff

Judy has been leading musical circles for people of all ages for almost two decades as a Music Together teacher and licensed director. She has attended CircleSongs retreats with Bobby McFerrin (at Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY) which has inspired her to bring more opportunities for collective music making to the general public as a mechanism for empowerment and healing. As a cantorial soloist, she creates sacred musical space for those seeking a musical way to connect to spirit.  One of her passions is to help non-singers (i.e., people who think they can’t sing) to find their voice so they can bring the joy of music into their lives. In 2019 she studied with Certified Sound Practitioner and creator of Sonic Mindfulness, Maraliz Campos. In early 2021, she completed certification as a Vibrational Sound Therapy practitioner. Most recently, she became a licensed facilitator of the BodyGroove dance movement.  

Sing.
Dance.
Connect.

Whether she's singing you into a meditative state  or leading you in a delicious dance experience, Judy will guide you on a journey to discover all the ways music affects us.


OFFERINGS

Singing. Dancing. Connecting. Healing.


Groove Dancefloor Experience

Groove is a dynamically interactive and creative group dance experience. With great music, Judy will UNITE everyone in a simple movement or rhythm but you get to dance it in your own UNIQUE way. While exploring a variety of styles and genres, you will experience everything from slow, delicious, meditative grooves to hearth thumping and strength building cardio beats. It's the perfect recipe to nurture your body, mind, heart and soul.

Judy leads community dance events every Wednesday night in Rockville Centre and is available to come to your school or corporate office for a customized Wellness @ Work session. 

See an example of what Groove Dancefloor Experience is, in video below.


Sound/Song Baths

To bring yourself to a place of deep calm so that your very cells can take over and do whatever healing it needs. Immerse yourself in the sounds of intuitive singing, crystal bowls, bells, chimes, drones and other overtone-emitting instruments. Use the power of sound to journey to a relaxed and meditative state. Sound meditation is form of meditation where sound is used as a therapeutic tool to help people disengage from their mental "roof" chatter. Experience with meditation is not necessary - often, sound meditation is helpful for people who have trouble with meditation.

Judy can create the perfect event whether it's a private session , for you and a group of friends in your home, at your school or place of work as part of our Mindfulness @ Work program.


Vibrational Sound Therapy

This one-on-one service uses therapeutic singing bowls placed on the body to create a combination of tones and vibrations that produce a state of tranquility and act as a massage for the nervous system. Vibrational sound therapy can retune your body, mind and spirit, encouraging relaxation, healing and wellness.
