: From Greek sōma 'body'

SOMA

An immersive workshop into the continuum of body, breath, and mind.

SOMA provides a solid foundation to explore the singing body, as well as specific physical and mental practices to supplement vocal technique and personal self-care. The focus of this workshop is to provide students, young artists, and working professionals applied knowledge of anatomy, breath mechanics, neuroscience, and a deep focus on the need for proactive and preventative self-care as a singer.

SOMA encourages participants to explore their creativity and connect with their voice more profoundly through a science-based approach to breath, body, and mind. This workshop is the holistic answer for the modern singer--promoting wellness and balance amidst artistic requirements to create a more synergistic, exceptional vocalist.
