Description

Join us for profound breathing techniques that will lay the foundation for an experimental, sonic journey of deep listening & vocalizing. Breath & Resonancewith Alice Andrews and Renee SkubaOur breath is the common thread that connects us to life and to all living beings. It is also the mother of vocal resonance. We will begin by gently opening up the body to make space for the breath, and then practicing safe, simple, yet profound BreathBliss techniques (pranayama / breath control) to relax, open, ground, and prepare ourselves for vocal exploration. We’ll then be led in an experimental, collaborative sonic journey, where we'll practice deep listening, feeling, and ‘sounding’ with others. It’s an experience in sensitivity, intuition, and tuning in — using our innate instrument, the voice. Be prepared for moments of beauty and spontaneous joy!
