The Art of Conscious Voicing

Your voice is a powerful tool for self-discovery, meditation and healing. Through this five week journey, you'll explore various techniques for unlocking your voice, opening you up to deeper self-expression and greater connection to yourself and the mysteries of existence. 

There are a never-ending number of ways to play with our voices - in group settings and individually, deriving from different cultures and with different purposes. Stephano will share many traditional techniques for using the voice as a tool to body, mind and spirit.

All voices welcome! (You’re not expected to have any vocal or dramatic training : )

Key areas we will cover:

• Voice & Movement 
• Vocal and Breathing Techniques
• The Magic of the Vowels
• Overtone Singing
• Mantra Aum/Om
• Sound & Music (one-note music, consonance/dissonance, basics of acoustics, overtone series)

We will explore these by drawing upon methods used in ceremonies and in artistic contexts, many of which (such as mantras, overtone singing and Tibetan chants) create trance-like states of deep presence.

Please note that numbers are strictly limited for this course so that we can create an intimate space for learning and sharing, so don’t leave buying your ticket until the last minute!

YOUR FACILITATOR

Stefano Sgarbi is a musician, sound therapist and workshop leader. A personal journey of self-discovery and studies of practises such as tai-chi, yoga, alternative singing techniques (e.g. overtone/throat singing) and didgeridoo has led to Stefano his own therapeutic and meditative practice for guided and mindful use of the voice and body. 

His love of art and music evolved into a passion for electronic music and sound therapy, leading him to study electroacoustic composition at the prestigious Institute of Sonology (Royal Conservatoire of The Hague, Netherlands). His ongoing research, as well as his ambition to continue to grow his techniques, brings him to many festivals across Europe, including MoDem, Shankra and Psy-Fi, demonstrating and guiding others in these innovative methods. 

As well as being a sound therapist and workshop leader, Stefano is known for his music project Sun Anga, collaborating with many international musicians and performers and is part of the Anthropos Festival community.
