Are you a singing teacher or trainee voice educator eager to expand your toolkit? Join Kate Cubley at Voice Study Centre for a dynamic 2-hour lecture exploring the role of functional breathing in supporting vocal performance, vocal health, and resilience—for both you and your students.

This engaging session introduces the Oxygen Advantage® method: a science-backed approach to breathing that can transform how you teach, coach, and care for the voice.

What to Expect:

  • 🧠 Understand the Science: Learn the physiological foundations of efficient breathing and how it impacts voice production, focus, and energy.
  • 🛠 Learn Practical Tools: Explore a range of easy-to-integrate breathwork exercises to support breath control, vocal stamina, and performance anxiety.
  • 🎙 Apply to Voice Work: See how these techniques align with and enhance existing vocal pedagogy—ideal for warm-ups, endurance training, and real-world teaching challenges.
  • 🤝 Interactive and Reflective: Take part in guided practice and discussion on integrating these methods into your own teaching and vocal health routines.

Why Attend?

  • Strengthen your teaching with evidence-based breathing strategies
  • Support student vocal health, confidence, and longevity
  • Manage your own energy and voice use in demanding teaching contexts
  • Connect breathwork to voice pedagogy in a clear, practical way

Unclenching the Jaw: Options from the Physio Lens

Walt Fritz

“Jaw tension” is one of many potential problems facing the singer, and can cause a direct negative impact on the performance in both direct and indirect ways. The underlying cause of jaw issues is attributed to numerous factors (technique, posture, strength, range of motion, etc.), making it often difficult to identify common denominators. Join Walt Fritz as he examines the evidence supporting stretching, strengthening, and manual therapy interventions to address jaw-related concerns in vocal performers, taking into account their unique needs.
