Dealing With Jaw Tension: Options For Singers

Thursday 13th October 2022, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)

In this workshop, we will discuss the concept of jaw tension from multiple perspectives.

We will unpack some possible underlying problems contributing to jaw tension and work the participant through self-interventions to remediate these concerns.
