Three highly experience trainers give a practical, holistic overview of the way the body and voice works. All three tutors are recognised specialists in their own field, and were instrumental in creating The Voice Clinic Handbook.

The three days include expert medical information from Tom Harris, one of the country's leading voice surgeons; practical exercises and therapeutic information from Sara Harris, a leading senior speech and language therapist; and hands-on postural information from Jacob Lieberman, a pioneering osteopath and psychotherapist who specialises in vocal performers.

Here is a summary of the three days:

Muscles Alive! with Jacob Lieberman (day 1)Jacob Lieberman, tutor on the Muscles Alive course for Vocal Process

1) Debunking the posture myths – the mistakes people make

Attractive posture and efficient posture are not necessarily the same thing

2) Discover how posture affects the voice

Understand when to correct posture and when to leave it alone!

3) The Jaw

Big Jaw Little Jaw - how jaw positions can affect the voice

4) The laryngeal mechanism – theory and practice

 Discover the impact of laryngeal tension on the voice with hands-on exercises; how to identify potential problems in your students

5) Question and Answer session

Anatomy and Physiology with Tom and Sara Harris (days 2-3)Tom Harris, tutor on the Vocal Process course Vocal Anatomy for Voice Professionals

1) Breath activates vibration - no breath, no voice!

Discover exactly why breathing is so important in speaking and singing

2) Experience breathing techniques from the Accent MethodSara Harris, tutor on the Vocal Process course Vocal Anatomy for Voice Professionals

Feel the connection between breath and voice with this holistic tool

3) You can't work your voice until you know how it works

Breath, vocal folds, resonating chambers - deconstructing the parts of your voice

4) Discover how and where resonance is made

 Without resonance you won't be heard! Communicate more easily with less effort.

5) Articulation, articulation, articulation

Not just a load of old vowels - articulation means you will be heard AND understood.

6) Watch video footage of a larynx from the inside

Rare footage of working larynges filmed from inside the throat. Watch stunning footage of a larynx being dissected (unless you're squeamish, that is...)

7) Learn how your entire vocal mechanism fits together

Understand the complexity of the instrument and the simplicity of the act.

 

This three-day course runs in London on January 19-21 2008. Saturday 10-5, Sunday 10-4 and Monday 10-2. The three days are packed with key concepts, hands-on work and practical exercises to help you get in touch with your vocal mechanism - the what, the where, the how and the why.


Why THIS Anatomy Course?

We have seen a number of anatomy courses come and go. Here are three reasons we set up this course:

1:  All three tutors have direct clinical, medical or therapeutic experience - they are not teaching from books!
Tom Harris has viewed more than 20,000 larynges in a career spanning more than 35 years. Sara Harris has worked as a therapist with thousands of patients with vocal problems and has spent a number of years developing targeted exercises for specific vocal and medical problems. Jacob Lieberman has pioneered the use of laryngeal manipulation and has run a thriving practice for many years working with performers at the highest levels. These tutors write the books that guide other practitioners.

2: Vocal Process tutors are involved in research that is happening right now.
All three tutors on this course have been involved in cutting edge research that is recently published or is in pre-publication.

3: Vocal Process has a reputation for sharing high-quality information.
We don’t go in for large non-refundable deposits or hidden extra costs, “pyramid selling” or claiming success from lists of clients we haven’t personally worked with.
Vocal Process – the “innovative voice training company” (Zone magazine) - has an international reputation as an educational course provider promoting clear, open communication.

So to recap -

That's three days of information, practical exercises and vocal tips from three of the leading trainers in three different disciplines, presented by a cutting edge training company.

And there’s one more thing you need to know…
