Have you ever been told you are too -- breathy, quiet, or aren't "on" your voice? That you have a vocal fry or that you need better diction? This workshop will help you understand the anatomy of your voice and give you tools to help you sustain a healthy sound. We will use a few of Linklater's practical exercises that include relaxation, awareness of breathing, how to open the throat, the development of resonance, and tools that will help your tongue and lips better articulate sounds.
