This class is for anyone wishing to use their body as a resonating instrument. Each class begins with gentle movements on the floor to develop physical awareness and ease, and will progress to vocal warmups, spatial games and exercises that allow the free flow of air, vibration, resonance and emotion. Students will investigate their existing habits and learn fundamentals of voice technique for application to singing in any style, acting, or public speaking. Students will be expected to show regular practice and application of these tools in their chosen area of focus. This is not a vocal performance class, but can be taken concurrently with or in preparation for an auditioned voice class.
