Breath and sound deepening - part 1

Somatic Voice Fortbildung - Breath and sound deepening - part 1

DE | 3-day workshop Somatic Voice with Marion Evers & Bettina Spreitz-Rundfeldt

"Voices are as individual, fascinating and diverse as people are."

This Somatic Voice workshop focuses on our breathing and sound spaces. We explore these with the Experiential Breath according to Prof. Ilse Middendorf and the approach Atem-Tonus-Ton® by Maria Höller-Zangenfeind. In this interaction we will discover the spatial properties of breath movement and sound movement together. The discovery of inner moving breath spaces combines with vocal sound spaces without pressure, as a good basis for the spontaneous and effortless expressive ideas of one's own voice. The bodily access to one's own voice will be experienced concretely, receiving and listening - inner not outer voicing - will play a greater role in this exciting process.

Previous experience is not necessary, but joy and curiosity about breath and sound are very welcome.
