“First, we will bring attention to the breath and also the regions of the jaw, neck, ribs, and abdominal muscles... notice whether you hold... notice and get curious....”

​

​

I am not flexible. Can I still do it?

Yes. Absolutely! To Move with the Voice sessions/workshops are perfect for you. Come along as you are.

​

​

Why is the word embodied added at the beginning of voice and yoga sessions?

The reason is to stress that truly anyone is welcome. Sometimes, the word yoga comes with certain expectations, and the word movement is too broad for our sessions. Therefore, the word embodied offers a space where we are encouraged to stay present with our experience when connecting the voice, body, mind, self, and the world around us. This space allows us to feel and be curious (rather than achieve particular standards or aimlessly follow instructions). 

​

​

What is the pace of the embodied voice and yoga sessions?

It is a slow-paced session. Slowing down helps us to let go of the need to control, identify areas that need more attention, feel less stress while accomplishing more, become more present and receptive, and create a deeper connection between our voice and body. That said, each session encourages us to move at our own pace.

​

What if I am running late?

Online and in-person: Plan to attend your class early. This will give you time to change, settle on your mat, grab your props, and relax. Unfortunately, I cannot accommodate clients (online and in-person) who arrive 5 minutes after the start of the session (unless they messaged me) because they may have missed the introduction and warm-ups. Warm-ups prepare the body and voice for the session. Missing warm-ups increases the risk of injury. Therefore, it is not safe for anyone to jump right into practising. No refunds are made after the start of the session.

​

​

What if I made my booking at the last minute?

No worries. An email with all the essential details will be sent to you shortly. However, if the booking is made 2 minutes before the beginning of the session/workshop, a confirmation email cannot be sent, and your payment cannot be refunded because I need to focus on welcoming the group. Therefore, the last booking that is accepted is received 2 minutes before we start and no longer.

​

 

Do I need to bring anything with me?

Online: yoga mat/blanket, small pillow, water bottle, and comfortable clothes
In person: Yes, bring a bottle of water and wear comfortable clothes (a prepared text such as a monologue, poem, song or a few sentences of your choice – not necessary for your first session).
* yoga mats and props are available in the studio / free of charge
** I recommend refraining from eating 2 hours before the workshop and making sure you are hydrated 2 hours before the workshop starts.

​

​

Why are there no recordings of the workshops/sessions?

The reason for this decision is that people who join are present. They are aware and ready to work. They are prepared, and the environment around them is set up to get the most out of the work. Therefore, the results are more powerful. It creates the feeling that we are all together in one room. This agreement of course can change;) but not yet.

​

​

What is your cancellation policy?

A no-cancellation policy. Fees are non-refundable. That said, your ticket is transferable. Therefore, if you cannot come, you can send someone in your place. In this case, please email me the name of the person.

​

​

PS: After booking, you will receive an email with all the details.
