Courses and one-to-one sessions
I aim to create a playful and fun learning environment in which students can explore and awaken their vocal potential. The work develops an effective use of body, breath and a freer release of resonating sounds.
The aim is to awaken a greater physical, emotional and vocal range by using structured exercises, improvisations, group and individual work, listening and sharing with others. This work then effectively supports the creative expression of sung or spoken text.
Here are some comments from participants in our workshops:
"Working with you has been a wonderfully liberating experience, and a real revelation. I came to the workshops because I was frustrated by the lack of connection between my voice and body.....the two seemed to work in almost complete isolation. I hoped that I might be able to find a connection between the two through Roy Hart work, and this is exactly what has started to happen. My voice feels much stronger and more flexible, I have become much more courageous in experimenting with my voice and my range has extended at both ends. Thank you so much!" Amanda Smallbone (October 2007)
"For me the voice experience is about getting in touch with the essence of who you are - your past, a sincere connection with the present and the confidence to embrace the future. The eyes maybe the windows to the soul but the voice is the light that guides you in." Mian Rahman (May 2007)
"I wish to thank you both for the truth in the voice and the self you helped to be revealed, by uncovering the layers of our voices that lead to our souls. Thank you for the journey..that goes on..on..and on..." Athina Trevilia (July 2006)
"I was completely enchanted by the workshop and even more than that. I had the impression that a door opened for me and I would like to not lose that feeling of expansion, of living and expressing myself fully that I felt during that week." Anne Lecompte (Aug. 2005)
"... I discovered vocal possibilities that I never imagined I had, thanks to these supportive working conditions and also thanks to the richness of your teaching…………... I thank you from the bottom of my heart." Jean Michel Monchoux (Aug. 2005)
One-to-one sessions.
You can also arrange a one-to-one session. (usually of 1 hour) During the session we will focus on your own personal vocal development.
