Valya Harkonnen uses the power of Voice to smite her enemies!
Whether you consider yourself a singer or not, strengthening the vocal system builds the confidence to speak up and trust the power of your authentic expression.
Many forces swirl about— both internally and externally— that shut down our voices. Most of us have experienced the tightness and emotion that comes up in the throat when we begin to communicate what we stand for and what’s important to us— especially when there’s an ancestral or body memory of trauma or punishment for doing so.
Join me on Zoom for voice workshops where we will work with tools for releasing blocks in the vocal system, building vocal strength and nurturing positive relationships with our voices. Classes consist of a 10-minute warm-up, 20-minute class, then an optional 15-minute question/answer session. All classes will be recorded and downloadable by those who have purchased the class, whether you’re able to attend or not. Students may choose to have video on or off and will be muted for their privacy.

TESTIMONIALS:
“Thanks for the class yesterday! I didn’t know how a zoom voice class would go and thought I might feel exposed & uncomfortable. But you created a really safe and encouraging environment. There was also a powerful alchemy / energetic moving and balancing field that transports the experience. I’m not at all surprised that the energy was so transformative and healing, but truly I didn’t realize how strongly it would shift things.” — Susan
CLASS DESCRIPTIONS
MANTRA VOICE - integration, alignment, power
Experience your voice as a fully embodied, vibratory channel for relaxing, energizing and uplifting your body and spirit! This class strengthens the entire vocal system, starting with a review of the basics of diaphragm strength and vocal relaxation and then employing mantra and chanting to integrate fundamental techniques, diaphragmatic breathing and vagal toning.
VOICE FUNDAMENTALS - diaphragm, strength, energizing
In this class we focus on building a deeper rapport with our voices and the body systems that support the voice. Specific attention is paid to connecting with the diaphragm, as well as breathing and sound techniques that strengthen and tone the entire vocal system.
VAGUS NERVE VOCAL TONING - relaxing, nurturing, healing
The vagus nerve is the longest nerve in the body and connects to the heart, lungs, stomach, intestines and more. The vagus nerve is a key component of the parasympathetic nervous system and influences breathing, digestive function, heart rate, and mental health. This voice class focuses on relaxing the voice and practicing sounds and breathing techniques that increase vagal tone and activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which both increases the fluidity of our singing and makes use of the voice as a tool for relaxation and stress management.
