Relaxation and release is essential to opening, freeing and ultimately strengthening your voice. In this initial class, you will become aware of the habitual tensions your voice and body carry and beginning to undo them. This is the first step to freeing your breath and vibrations of sound. As your voice loosens, the next step is to develop resonance by sensing and spreading the vibrations through the bony hollows of your body.Once this connection is established we can address the deeper tensions that develop in the jaw, larynx, and tongue, encouraging your sigh to find a free and focused pathway beyond those restraints that filter your message. By giving your sigh of vibrations a clear passageway from the lower body up through to the mouth, you will be ready to begin to strengthen the voice and activate more expressiveness with the resonating ladder.In Voice 1 you will contact the chest, the mouth, and the teeth resonators and blend to find a warm, relaxed and focused connection between your thoughts, feelings and your voice.
