Supported by Leeds Combined Arts.
It is our ancestral right to sing, the breath in our bodies is the only permission we need. The modern day world shames us and shapes us in ways that are unhelpful and untrue. The sessions will look at deepening our connection to our authentic voice. We hear a voice calling from deep within, beckoning us to get in touch once again with our wild and knowing selves. We will call on this ancient self, connect with our heart and honour the sacred connection to life, nature and each other through our voices. I invite you to join us in this safe space that will allow our souls to sing from a primal and intuitive place that resides in us all. We will go through gentle vocal exercises encouraging the voice to open up. We will use different chants and songs from around the world to experience a whole range of expression through the voice. From gentle heartfelt prayer or chant to lively guttural tribal call and response songs. We will explore vocal toning, improvisation, silence, harmony and dissonance. We will enjoy circle singing together and be supportive witnesses to each other in our new community of singers. Together seeking to deepen our connection to the world and life through our voice. Pay on the door or contact us on 07708 230 333 to reserve in advance.
