Workshop description:

Our voice is much more than just a tool for speaking: it is an expression of our vitality, our presence and our inner truth. In this workshop, we rediscover the voice as a physical space, a field of resonance and an emotional source.

‘The Living Voice’ invites you to explore your own sound spaces, gently push your boundaries and use the natural power of breathing and singing. Through body awareness, simple vocal exercises, sound experiments and group singing, a space is created in which the voice is not evaluated, but can play, explore and flourish.

We explore how the voice is formed, how it changes when we feel safe, and how it helps us connect authentically with ourselves and others. Respecting each individual’s level, we build bridges between sensations, freedom, expression and performance.

For me, the philosophy of the Roy Hart voice work lies in listening to and observing the totality of the person who is expressing; taking the risk to be fully in the moment and following our intuitions. It is to give confidence to the student so s/he will dare to venture into places within him or herself, and into qualities of the voice perhaps not yet known, while taking pleasure in this exploration. It is to open a field of possibilities and to welcome the many personalities, voices and energies of which we are comprised. Finally, it is to appreciate beauty wherever it resides.

Roy Hart Voice Teacher since 2001

My very first experience of the Roy Hart voice work was in 1988 when I had my first individual lesson with Marita Günther. The joy of life and love entered into my voice. Now it has become my life and my passion to accompany people into the singing process. Singing means much more to me than the actual producing of a sound. It is a deep process of self-reflection, self-confidence and self-knowledge. For me my work is energetic work on all levels, combined with deep and passionate emotions to reveal the inner flow of life and love.
