Voice & Somatics: A Workshop To Unmute Yourself

Over dit evenement

Your voice is a living expression of your inner world. When it doesn’t feel safe to be heard or seen, we often hold back, and that holding can show up as tension in the throat, jaw, shoulders, or as a feeling of being “muted.”

In this workshop, we’ll explore how your voice, body, and nervous system are deeply connected, and how creating more space & safety in the body can support freer, more authentic expression.

✨What we’ll do:
• A short, accessible introduction to the nervous system and vagus nerve (and why the voice tightens under stress)
• A gentle introduction to vocal physiology, including the breath management system, and how habitual tension can limit sound and expression
• Somatic release for jaw, neck, and shoulders to support vocal ease
• Playful group singing and vocal exploration through humming, sounding, call and response, and accessible group singing practices that invite expression, connection, and play

✨You’ll leave with:
• Practical tools to regulate your nervous system and soften vocal tension
• More confidence to express yourself from a place of safety
• A felt sense of connection to yourself and to like-minded others

✨Good to know:
No singing or somatic experience is needed! This is not about “singing well,” but about embodied expression. Everything is optional and you’re welcome to participate at your own pace!
