In the chakra system, the throat is the gateway between the lower and the upper chakras. It is very often tight, constricted, and blocked. We struggle to speak our truth, put words to what we feel in our hearts. The voice is how we connect our gut intuition and our emotional heart to our wisdom and foresight. It is how we connect our insides with the world outside of our physical bodies.

In this workshop, we will use exercises including vocal toning, humming, and improvisation to free up this channel. By connecting the diaphragmatic chain using the breath and sound, participants will leave empowered to use their unique vocal fingerprint.
