Song of the Ancients with Peia

Each one of us is gifted with a uniquely beautiful voice and lineage of song. In this workshop, you will discover your true voice through an embodied practice, engaging natural breath and resonance techniques guided by Peia.

Learn to harness the power of your breath, deepen and expand your breath capacity and sing from your core. Unlock the natural resonance of your voice and learn to direct sound, and move it through the body aswell as the room. Working with tools from the ancient Indian alchemy of Raga you will enter a deeply meditative practice known as ‘The Yoga of Sound.’ You will gain a deeper understanding of the physical workings of the voice from Vocal Pedagogy (the science of the voice) and learn to sing with grace, power, flexibility and ease.

During our time together we will explore:
• Somatic & Embodiment tools to unblock both the singing and speaking voice and liberate our inherent expression of beauty and vitality.

• Breath meditations and techniques to return to our natural breath cycle, which regulates the nervous system and helps to release trauma stored in the body.

• Practices to cultivate both resonance and volume without taxing or overworking the voice

• Vocal Care and Warm Ups and tools to stretch the vocal range gently

• One song from the Celtic tradition that will connect us to the rituals and way of life of these ancient people. If you have European blood running through your veins, there is a good chance that you share an ancestral connection to the Celtic clans. This is an opportunity to dive into both the songs and the language of this ancient culture.
