Life - Death - Life
A Transformational Voice Course
Sundays, August 16, 23, + 30
4-6pm
Fairfield, Iowa
Our voices are powerful, personal, and deeply connected to who we are.
It's possible to use the power of voice to encounter and move energies and stories that live within us. This course is an invitation to explore, expand, and deepen your relationship with your voice through breath, resonance, and play.
In this three-week course, we’ll explore the cycle of Life - Death - Life, honoring this universal passage we all encounter at various points in our lives. By entering into a conscious container to be with ourselves and each other, we'll invite new insights or understandings we can bring back into our lives.
Whether you are experiencing the growth and abundance that life has to offer or the more tender, damp spaces of grief, longing, or loss, you're welcome here.
The voice is the muscle of the soul.
