Why this Matters

Your voice and your words are powerful teaching tools because:

• The voice touches many in one sweep — hands can only touch one at a time.

• Good use and coordination is transmitted through the voice: useful for online teaching.

• Your unique voice can support many, upholding lightness of being and keeping spirits high and hopeful, free from outside circumstances.

Thus your voice and words become invaluable — for your own practice, for your community, for the AT community at large. Communication is vital for our existence and our connection as human beings. The Alexander Technique creates the conditions for a well embodied, rich and clear voice.

Whether you are an Alexander Technique teacher or trainee, a voice professional, an educator, or simply someone who wants to be heard without strain, this workshop is for you!

The Core Questions

• What happens the moment I intend to speak or sing?

• What tenses up unnecessarily?

• How do I disrupt the flow of my breath?

• How do I lose contact with my mental clarity, my inner aliveness, my audience?

• Do I allow pauses between my sentences? What is my pace?

​

What Gets Revealed

As if under a magnifying glass, this critical moment reveals every hindering pattern that:

• Distorts my voice and gestures

• Takes my breath away — and not in a good way

• Brings unnecessary effort and tension into speaking and singing

• Stops me from speaking when I have something valuable to contribute

• Or fails to stop me when I'm talking without pause
