Introduction to Voice Training: Empowering Gender-Affirming Voice Fundamentals
Have you wanted your voice to better align with your identity but don’t know where to begin? Or perhaps you have gone down the rabbit hole of online offerings only to feel overwhelmed or misguided, or you don’t know how to embody the exercises you’ve found?
In Level 1 of our Aligning Voice with Identity Series, participants will spend four sessions learning a holistic approach to gender-affirming voice that prioritizes confidence, ease, and authenticity. Work sessions are highly interactive as we foster a beautifully encouraging environment.
Key Takeaways:
Participants will build effective breath support for your voice with the awareness that how we integrate our breath is the difference between feeling and sounding authentic vs. forced.
Participants will practice vocal shaping and pitch modulation in a way that feels euphoric and supported. Just being able to speak lower or higher with more or less chest resonance has diminished returns if you can’t do it with ease.
Participants will develop a daily practice to build confidence and autonomy.
