Shouldering The Blame - Exploring the Upper Body In Voice Training & Rehabilitation
Tuesday 16th February 2021, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
One reasonably well explored principle in voice production is how the breathing system can and does adapt to the larynx, be it the register, resistance or possibly a pathological problem.
As we explore this principle, there are common adaptations that happen in the upper body that can be assessed using the arms.
This makes the arms and shoulders a valuable part of assessing singers understanding the singing ‘system’ and eventually deciding the training route.
All sessions are recorded and will be sent out to all registered participants.

Unpacking the Mind-Voice Connection in Occupational Voice Users!
Dr Cantor Cutiva
Join Dr. Cantor-Cutiva as she explores the Mind-Voice Connection, a holistic framework that considers how psychological traits, stress levels, and sleep quality interact with vocal health, particularly in occupational voice users. Through a multidisciplinary lens, we will examine how personality dimensions such as extraversion, neuroticism, and conscientiousness influence not only vocal behaviour but also the perception and reporting of vocal fatigue.
