2 Part Course: Therapeutic Techniques For Healing The Injured Voice Suitable For SLPs/VRCs And Singing Teachers

Thursday 20th October 2022, 7:30 PM - Tuesday 25th October 2022 7:30 PM (London Time)

Part 1

Voice teachers and singers are invited to learn about the primary methods used in voice therapy for healing the injured voice.

Course participants will learn about the research that supports these methods, indications for use, and any contraindications.

Participants will be given the opportunity to experience several of the techniques in class.

 

Part 2

Voice teachers and singers who have already completed Therapeutic Techniques for Healing the Injured Voice (Part 1) are invited to join this higher-level course to discuss critical thinking as it pertains to developing a plan of care for the complex voice patient.

Several case studies will be discussed in class with the goal of establishing a hierarchy of decision-making and planning.

The class will work from a skills checklist and then determine how and when the singing teacher may participate in the remediation process.

Acting Emotion: Perspectives from the Masters

Louisa Morgan

Stanislavski said, “our artistic emotions are, at first, as shy as wild animals and they hide in the depths of our souls.” Michael Chekhov said, our bodies should be like a “sensitive membrane, a kind of receiver and conveyor of the subtlest images, feelings, emotions and will impulses.” And Meisner said we should be “living truthfully under imaginary circumstances.” Join Louisa Morgan in this 2-part course as she explores a range of well-known acting practitioners to investigate what they believed (or believe) about emotion and how they approached it in their work. She'll compare their work to see where they align and where they diverge.

Living truthfully in the present moment: An introduction to the Meisner Technique!

Abigail Sugden

Sanford Meisner believed that acting is living truthfully under imaginary circumstances. Rooted in behavioural aspects of acting practice, the Meisner Technique is often associated with encouraging actors to live truthfully in the present moment. Aimed at those working within the field of acting, this 2-hour session with Abigail Sugden will focus on the work of Sanford Meisner, introducing the core principles of his technique and discussing the possible benefits to performers.
