When voice work and dance come together... sparks are guaranteed to fly.
Have you noticed that your voice sounds different depending on whether you are lying down, standing up or moving? Or that your movements become more powerful when you add sound to them? Voice and movement are closely related.
Singing, shouting, whispering or chanting: it makes a big difference whether you are moving or standing still. Awareness of the rest of our body unlocks our own vocal potential.
In this course, you will explore a vocal technique that gives your voice space. In addition, we will move around a lot and play with what our voice and body tell us in different places and positions! It will be a dynamic journey, alternating between exploration and composition.
This is a course for people who have some experience with voice work, whether through singing, acting, speaking in front of groups, etc. On the last day, this journey will come together with a group that is more familiar with dance and has learned about voice work through that medium. Using a shared vocabulary, we will continue to play and experiment together.
Mileen Borgonjon and Indra Boone are joining forces for this project. Indra brings her experience and expertise as a voice coach, speech therapist, singer and performer. Mileen is a dancer/performer, passionate about contact improvisation, and also brings her experience in various movement and somatic practices (Ido Portal Movement Method, Breathwork, Feldenkrais, etc.).
