Intuitive Singing - Embodying the Voice
Sunday, 19th October, 2025
7pm – 8.30pm GMT - Online (zoom)
The voice is the first musical instrument we know, and singing is the most instinctive way we have to express varying degrees of emotion – from the tiniest thoughts to overwhelming experiences. This workshop is about creating an authentic relationship with your singing voice.
Using physical and vocal techniques that are already present in a wide range of musical forms, the workshop will engage the body and the mind to listen deeply, and work as one. Instead of trying to sing songs we’ve adopted from traditional or popular forms of music, the workshop will encourage us to sing musically, without words or lyrics. Through a variety of exercises, games and meditations, we will attempt to experience our bodies sensorily, and seek sounds that mean something to us.
The purpose of the workshop is to try and break the idea of an ‘ideal’ singing voice, and guide us towards accessing intuitive self-expression through song.
Instead of focusing on what we should sound like, we will try and discover what sounds like us. It is a simple ambition driven by simple processes, and one that has the potential to be deeply transformative.
