What's Behind Powerful Performances
Friday June 13, 2025 1:15pm - 2:15pm PDT
This class is also offered in Session 6.
We talk about trying to "connect with the audience" from the stage but what does that really mean? You know it when you feel it yet it's hard to describe what's actually happening in that magical moment. Explore the history of music and performance from the earliest human cultures through the lens of how it has shaped the way we connect as humans over the ages. Western science and thousands of years of religious traditions from all over the world have all demonstrated the benefits of singing together and for one another. Here, we will learn to amplify this power with breathwork, movement, meditation and playful dramatic exercises. Feel the difference for yourself as we build skills together to create powerful performances and even help us cultivate compassion as individuals and communities alike. Dress comfortably and be ready to let loose and have some fun a we learn and work together!

Yoga for Singers
Friday June 13, 2025 2:30pm - 3:30pm PDT
Relax, breathe, stretch, and calm performance anxiety!  (Or, just take a break from sitting all day and stretch a bit after walking all over campus!) This yoga class compliments the ideas and practices touched on in my other class, "What's Behind a Powerful Performance?"  We will focus on poses to help you get in touch with your breath, create space and ease in your body and increase alignment both physically and energetically to prepare your instrument for the best performance possible! Dress comfortably and feel to bring a mat or small blanket if you wish. All levels of experience and abilities are welcome! Chairs and modifications will be available so you can relax comfortably!
