(R)evolutionary Voice Training: harnessing human instinct to accelerate vocal transformation!
Thursday 4th December 2025, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
Human beings and our vertebrate ancestors have been communicating via vocalization for millions of years – those sounds did not start as complex language, but as animal mimicry, acoustic cuing, and emotional primal sounds.
But there's so much more in our evolutionary communication toolkit than just the sounds. From hand gestures to full-body movement, micro-expressions to emotional breathing, we carry a repertoire of instinctive shortcuts that can lower cognitive load and accelerate vocal change.
In this two-hour session we'll explore how tapping into gesture, nervous system safety, emotional breath coordination, and microexpression work can expedite training process; how mimicking nonverbal animal cues can free singers from overthinking; and how simple symbolic prompts can rewire habitual tension patterns.
You'll leave with practical exercises that integrate movement, micro-expression work, and sound, so you can access more spontaneous, alive, and resilient vocal production. Welcome to the (r)evolution.
