Voice in Motion: A Multi-Day Workshop in Vocal Discovery, Creativity, and Freedom

This immersive, five-day workshop is designed for actors, performers and others who are eager to enhance their vocal and expressive abilities.

Participants will explore the interplay between body, movement, voice and emotion in a dynamic and supportive environment.

Sessions will include focused work on breath, physical awareness, movement, vocal exploration and improvisation.

Each participant will have the opportunity to develop their vocal range and expressiveness through guided exercises and group activities.

Drawing from the Roy Hart tradition of voice work, we will approach the voice not as a separate instrument, but as a vital and embodied extension of our entire self.

LANGUAGE
The workshop will be taught in English without translation.
