Sound Training

How fit is your voice?

Learn how to strengthen your voice and body through the practices of sound

SOUND TOOLS
Sound Tools is a 6 week course, meeting for 2 hours each week. Over the 6 weeks, we cover the range of how working with voice can support different areas of life, work and play.
For more detail, please see WORKSHOPS AND CLASSES.

PERSONAL SOUND TRAINING
One-to-One Sessions
If you wish to develop your singing practice, explore your individual sound or go to places you have never been before, Personal Sound Training sessions are available with Sara McCarthy. These are typically one hour in length and involve detailed intake prior to the session. PERSONAL SOUND TRAINING CDs, based on individual practices recommended for you by Sara, are available as an extra purchase, to support the session.

VOCAL FITNESS TRAINING
Vocal Fitness Training is available. We use Chants, Mantras and Sound Practices to strengthen and condition the voice and body. These sessions are excellent for developing a relationship with your voice, which can be directly applied to work and creativity.

THE SINGING FIELD
The Singing Field is an opportunity for small groups (up to 5 people) to work one to one with their voice, in a supportive group setting. Each person will have a 20 minute opportunity to sound their own voice and develop it further with one to one coaching. Date and time arranged with participants. To sign up, please contact us.

The idea of The Singing Field was created by Chloe Goodchild, Founder of the Naked Voice Foundation. She adapted a poem by the 13th Century Persian poet, Rumi, by inserting the word 'singing' to read:

"Out beyond right and wrongdoing,
there is a field
a singing field.
I'll meet you there"

At Performance Frequency, we have also adapted this Singing Field approach, to work with land: see section on LAND.

WORKSHOPS
A workshop series has been developed, to apply sound practices and techniques to the challenges and issues of everyday life.
