Cheri "Note" Anderson

Cheri blends her education in health, recreation, and music to provide therapy group sessions that are lively and fun! Her unique approach inspires participants to laugh, sing, and move, leaving them with a feeling of joy.

Cheri performs to song tracks selected from classic jazz, classic theater, movie, and television all within her theme of Jazzin' the Spirit positive music, a music movement Cheri created whose core is love. Her theme is always of love... love of Creator, of ourselves, of one another.

Her program includes serenading the patrons, trivia activities, and a monthly drawing with prizes for participants. Cheri's style of going to each participant and shaking their hand, inviting them to say “hello” to one another, and bringing the microphone to them so they can join in on the songs is her signature. Participants often want the program to continue on after it has ended.

Cheri offers sessions in thirty minute and one hour increments, one to two times per week and monthly. She also is available for special events, such as Birthday Parties, Holiday Events, and Dinners.

She has served Convalescent Centers in Simi Valley and Glendale. Participants have been residents, long and short term. Her programs have been offered in recreation and lunch rooms.

Cheri brings her own PA system complete with microphone, speakers, and cd player. Her music repertoire includes over 100 songs plus well over 50 theater, movie, and television trivia sheets. She offers a once a month drawing that adds a sense of excitement for the Patrons, which leaves them feeling joyfilled!
