Voice Maintenance for Professional Singers.
Do you ever have even the slightest sore throat after a performance? Not only can throat strain reduce your performance ability during heavy performance times, rehearsing or touring, it can cause long term damage, loss of voice and result in the need for surgery.
My Voice Maintenance sessions are all about the long term health and vitality of your voice. Like a yoga session for the voice, you get to thoroughly stretch and relax your voice, experience excellent vocal posture and leave the session totally energised and ready to sing for the rest of the day. The warming up techniques I will take you through are so great for preparing you to sing and getting your voice sounding it's absolute best every time, that you'll want to use them before every performance or recording. Any post performance soreness will be a thing of the past and you will have practical tools to keep your voice in great shape for the rest of your life.
Personal Growth by Vocal Shift
The voice is so central to our self image - how we sound is who we think we are and who we think we are affects how we sound. Moments of trauma at pivotal developmental moments can affect the voice profoundly and for the rest of your life. Shifting the vocal position and experiencing the voice sounding and feeling as free and clear as though the trauma hadn't happened is an amazing way to heal and surprisingly easy (compared to hours of talk therapy and introspection)
Working from the premise that we are born with perfectly healthy voices (think of a baby crying in it's first minutes of life) while re-experiencing the natural, healthy posture of the voice, we tap into early memory and reclaim closed off parts of ourselves. Hearing our voices sound open, confident, authentic and deeply alive is a very moving as well as healing experience.
As your voice becomes stronger, more authentic, more comfortable and vibrant, the effect that has on your self-image and general mental health and mood is inestimable.
