Description
Following on from the success of the first series, Galop is offering another chance for you to participate in these innovative workshops.
The sessions will involve using your voice to connect to your body, to challenge, explore and celebrate your own senses of self - however that manifests itself for you.
We’ll use deep relaxation techniques and elements of Yoga and the Alexander technique to understand breath; for example, how the muscles in our bodies produce the breath which supports the sounds we make. We’ll be experimenting with the different places sound resonates in our bodies (and the different qualities of sound these make), and exploring the pitch and range of our voices.
We’ll combine this voice work with movement; for example, we’ll use our understanding of breath and support to dance the waltz together in session 2. These sessions will be a chance to explore and embrace your physical sides in playful and experimental ways. Whether you’re a commanding leader or expressive partner, you can decide: and of course you’re free to interpret and move between different roles as you wish.
There will be plenty of time for reflection and feedback in the sessions.
All are welcome, playfulness encouraged!
When? 8 week course, Thursday evenings 7-9 from 21st May.
