The Embodied Voice Bookclub

 Read, discuss, and unpack great books. Connect and learn with fellow voice & body enthusiasts. 

I love to read about, research, and experience anything voice and body related. But I’m also guilty of purchasing books with all the best intentions, and then never finishing them.

 

If you’re anything like me, then you may also like a little support from friends to keep motivated and engaged with your learning. That’s why occasionally hold a bookclub for voice and body enthusiasts who like to connect with each other while deepening their knowledge. 

We focus on reading books on topic relevant to voice & body, but that means the material can be wide ranging. If you have a book that you’d like to discuss with fellow voice and body nerds, then get in touch! In advance of our gathering, I will suggest a few chapters to focus on, and will develop some questions and ways in to guide our discussion. When we meet, I’ll provide a light facilitation, but mostly it will be up to us to share what interests us. And don’t worry - if you aren’t able to finish the entire book in time for our gathering, you are still very much welcome!

Previous books for 2021 bookclub included:

Bodyfulness: Somatic Practices for Presence, Empowerment, and Waking Up in This Life - by Christine Caldwell

Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art - by James Nestor

What you will receive:

 
  • A suggestion of chapters to focus on and a list of questions to reflect upon with the group

  • 1.5 hrs of lightly facilitated discussion on zoom

  • “Allowing myself to feel joy in my body and therefore my voice! I had been feeling creatively and vocally “stuck”/stressed about how I was creating sound, and through these workshops I’ve found lightness, fun, and joy again - it’s less of a battle. Embodied Voice = harmony between body + sound, thinking with my body and feeling aware of how it supports me!.”
