“Now is the time to free the heart,
Awaken to the wonder of your life.”
(John O’Donohue)
Each one of us is born with a unique voice, and a vital need for authenticity.
And every single one of us, in our own way, adds our colours to existence.
‘Gateways into Voice & Movement’ is a full day gathering in which we will explore the spirit of our embodied creativity – under the guidance of magical songstress Carrie Tree and poetess in motion Caroline S’Jegers…
Held in a loving container, we will guide you on a journey of creative inquiry. While diving deeper into what moves us from within, we will explore our expressive language – both in silence and with the support of music and sounds. We will connect to our authentic voices through simple yet powerful vocal techniques and visualization.
Throughout our gathering, we will explore the gateways between (e)motion and voice.
✫ Can movement be of support while exploring our own unique voices?
✫ What moves us when we sing and are being witnessed in our own vulnerability?
✫ How do we express our connection to rhythm and harmony?
We will also discover ways to lean into the community field. Every voice being carried by the whole. We will deepen our relationship to what is being expressed within – the relationship to the ‘big body’ that carries and sustains us.
✫ Through voice, poetry and movement, we invite you to come just as you are.
To share, receive, explore, listen, dive in, and reflect your own authentic beauty.
Let’s return to the essence and love what we love. Sing and dance what is longing to be expressed.
Skin to earth.
Breath of life.
Roots of joy.
Gateways into the wonders of life! ✫
