Singing from the Heart
Our singing workshops focus on Singing from the Heart. We offer workshops and classes on Indian Singing (classical raga, songs of Tagore, sanscrit chants) and also World Music (gospel, African, western harmony etc).
Who for? all who want to sing from the heart and body. Whatever your experience, our unique blend of teaching approach and techniques can help anyone sing in tune, with full resonance and relaxation! Beginners and experienced singers alike can sing with fluidity and real resonance.
What? weekly choir focusing on world music, workshops (from 2-8 days) on Indian raga, weekend 'Song of the Heart' weekends combining Indian raga with First Nature body and breath work, and integration into our own western traditions. Individual lessons are also available.
Where? Brighton, London, Freiburg (Germany) and near Rennes (France). We have also run workshops in Ireland, Scotland, India, and anywhere we are invited!
"Thank you again for your wonderful workshop, it made me discover a whole new realm of music and, most of all, made me feel the connection between sound and soul. ..There have been plenty of moments full of grace in this workshop, but what struck me quite powerfully was the incredible sweetness, grace and femininity of the raga, even when sung by men! It's not easy to sing Indian raga, and it was only when I was able to let go of my desire to actively control the sound, when I was swept away by the rhythm and the music that the reward of a sort of liquid honey pouring out of my throat came to me..." (Dentist, London)
