Systematic Approach To Kinesthetic Singing Tools
Thursday 3rd March 2022, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
This workshop will focus on the use of kinesthetic singing tools during studio application.
Kinesthetic singing tools provide a more expeditious approach to a new sensory experience than ongoing explanations by the teacher.
Decades of voice research have provided an organizational template from which to study voice mechanics through five-voice systems: respiration, phonation, registration, articulation, and resonance.
This workshop will use videos from voice lessons to demonstrate what vocal challenge was observed that led to the selection of a specific kinesthetic tool filtered through a systematic approach.
This provides clarity for studio application to guide singers toward vocal efficiency.
