Trauma-Informed Voice Practices: What Does It Mean In Practice?
Thursday 9th March 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
In this course, participants will learn the theory and particularly the practice of being “trauma-informed”.
The participant will become aware of the incidence and impact of trauma and how trauma can manifest physiologically, behaviorally, and vocally in different types of settings and situations.
Importantly, we will explore the perspective of the voice practitioner when signs of trauma show up and practical skills and tools that can help the practitioner navigate the space and dynamic comfortably and always within scope of practice.
Dr Elisa Monti

That means that anyone can teach singing. And they do. Your goal is to stand out from the crowds and build your studio or creative business with knowledge, integrity, intention, and business acumen.
