Discover and Integrate the Pelvic Floor with your Singing Self

The pelvic floor does not work in isolation, but is integrated with breathing, full body movements, and of course, singing.  In this workshop, the focus will be to develop awareness and use of the pelvic floor as a coordinated system of muscles. There will be Awareness Through Movement exercises involving the whole body in sitting, standing and lying down. You can notice immediate improvement in breathing and abdominal control, and apply that to your singing.
