The workshops invite you to participate in profound play.
 
 

The play begins with breathing, movement, uninhibited sounding, and eventually shaped sounding in the forms of primal chanting, poetic text, and singing. There are no guitars, drums, or pianos in the room. The instrument is the human voice.

As group size is small (minimum 6 - maximum 14) each group defines its own dynamic. As the group progresses we will explore text and song drawing upon the work of Shakespeare, Celtic rounds, traditional folk tunes, and popular repertoire from Broadway to Billy Holiday. We will also experiment with free flow writing techniques which will become your own lyrics.

Do something really nice for yourself right now as you are reading this page.
1)  Breathe in - put your hand on your heart - feel your heart beat - relax and breathe out.
2)  Breathe in - keep your hand on your heart - sense the breath as though it were in your heart - release your breath with a sigh.
3)  Breathe in - keep your hand on your heart - sense your breath in your belly, your heart, your entire being - sigh out with a very slight haaaaaaaahhhhhh.
Feel better?
