Sound, Singing,
and Health - This workshop will emphasize the structure and
energetic value of the 5th chakra (the body's communication center) and its
role in authentic artistry and personal wellness. Sound perception and
listening, as well as the important role that our voices (and the quality of
the sounds we make) can have on our health, will be emphasized. YogaVoice®
vocal practices will be taught and combined with yoga postures for a unique
experience of awakening vocal awareness. Group singing will add to a fun and
interesting experience for each participant.
Balancing Body,
Breath and Creativity - This workshop will continue to develop some of the
concepts of the Sound, Singing, and Health workshop, with information based
on Mark's chapter in The Musician's Breath (GIA 2010). In that book, and on
the accompanying DVD, Mark explains how the breath in singing may be
understood as the "connective tissue" between one's body, mind, and
innate creativity. The Yogic model of the KOSHAS (sheaths) will be explored
as a pathway to vocal artistry. Yoga postures, breathing and vocal exercises,
and a Master Class for solo singers will highlight this informative workshop.
Participant
