Voice on track... philosophy and keeping warm!

thought for the fortnight

   Our parent's voices become part of us in the early stages of our development. In the womb the unborn child responds to the mum's voice.  As children, mum's warning tones, & soothing tones are hardwired into our very being.  How much of this tonal vocal patterning stays with us, and is responsible for how we relate to others voices now? and how we use our own?   While being real, and present we want to raise our awareness of voice habits and gradually forge a path of strengthened voice use. Whether our voices are strong or soft we can create a new habit of listening to our voices. 

Hello, 

   Welcome to the easyvoice voicework and mumvoice drop-in classes, or welcome back if you've been following this page as it's been developing. 

    I'm so pleased that the word has been getting around about these classes.

 Yes I can see how it has been a bit confusing.  To clarify:   The classes are $10  for an hour long session, and the first class is koha or about $5 or a couple of coins. 

No you don't need to have a baby to come to the mumvoice class.  

The classes happen fortnightly, and each second class babies are welcome! So in theory if you're a mum, each month you can bring bub with you.  Check the timetable for the dates.  

Tomorrow's session is a mumvoice session, but there may or may not be baby's in the class, that's fine. It's still a mumvoice class with an emphasis on a different aspect of voice.    The mumvoice concept is about nurture, channeling energy, teaching and leading, and listening, it's not only about babies, but it stems from that place just as voice does. 

It's not a strenuous class but still worth wearing comfy clothes.

At the moment it's all about the women, but guys, there will be a class coming up open to everyone.  Watch this space! 

 I'm getting back on track myself, now that my very busy midwinter has given way to the more even keel of a (very ) early spring!  

     Can we call it spring yet?
