In this class series you will explore how the voice and body can work together to create a free and easy resonance.  You will explore motion and balance in the body and how that helps you to breathe and support your sound.  This class will also feature SOVT and other vocal exercises to reduce stress and optimize resonance.  You will be guided through a series of movements and recuperative vocal exercises to help you discover more ease, balance and resonance in your speaking or singing voice. This class is great for teachers, public speakers, singers, actors, and anyone interested in refining their vocal health.

Classes are led by Heather Gardner and Series 1 will take place on Thursdays 9/11, 9/18, 9/25, and 10/2 from 9-10:15am ET.
