According to this recent article in The Conversation, the health benefits of collective singing go well beyond mere entertainment; it can help reinforce balance and even mitigate the effects of Parkinson’s! What’s more, the social benefits extend to enhanced sense of community engagement, generosity, and joy. The author writes, “Group singing provides a mood boost and improves overall well-being. Increased levels of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin during singing may promote feelings of social connection and bonding.”
Who couldn’t use a mood boost in these difficult times? Come join a rehearsal and feel the energy for yourself.
Na Leo Lani brought our best Magic Kingdom energy to rehearsal last week with a big helping of rainbows, and we marked Pam’s September birthday with a rousing rendition of Happy Birthday — and MANY MORE! The belated honor made it all the more special. 😉
If you love the magic of song with women who know how to make every rehearsal a good-time opportunity, come join us on Wednesday evenings for barbershop harmony, laughter, and fun!
The ladies of Na Leo Lani never let a holiday go by without marking it in a special way, and this year’s Veterans’ Day was no different! Rocking our best stars and stripes attire, we sang in remembrance of those who have fought and died defending the values of equality, humanity, and justice under law, and we sang in celebration of the millions of hardworking individuals from all corners of the planet who serve the U.S. with honor, both in military uniform and as essential workers who make our economy hum. As women of all races, ethnicities, and faiths, we know well that harmony begins with listening — and we honor that outlook every week with song.
Middle C, high C, low C — whatever your vocal flavor, we’ve got it covered in our a cappella barbershop harmonies!
This week’s rehearsal theme was COOKIES 🍪🍪🍪 — and as you can “C”, we had a great time singing sweetly together.
It’s Autumn, and you know what that means — time to dust off your favorite holiday tunes and sing with Na Leo Lani in four-part barbershop harmony!
If you love choral singing and are looking for an opportunity to lift your spirits every week with a great group of women, we invite you to exercise your talent and build your vocal chops in our fun and festive Music and Mistletoe holiday program October 29 through December 23, 2025.

What an extraordinary day we had this past Saturday, August 23 celebrating Na Leo Lani’s Golden Anniversary. Fifty years — WOW!!!!!
Thank you to all who attended, and mahalo nui loa to Harris United Methodist Church for hosting us! A million thanks as well to the dozens of volunteers whose hard work helped us pull off this once-in-a-lifetime event. We could not have done it without you.
More thank yous to the individuals who so generously gave of their time will follow soon, along with photos from the event.
For now, here’s one from our rehearsal prior to the show. Golden indeed!
We had a small but feisty rehearsal this week as a number of our members were out sick, including our Director, Chris.
Those who felt up to it came on Wednesday masked and practiced social distancing as we continued preparing for our upcoming 50th anniversary celebration on August 23.
Have you purchased your tickets for the luncheon and concert yet? If not, we now have an online credit card payment option (thank you, Terri, for setting that up!)
You can find more info about the 50th Anniversary Celebration, plus the links to our online payment form and to a pay-by-check option HERE.
Sending lots of get-well-energy, throat lozenges, and love to our members who are recovering this week.
