Circlesinging
Improvised choir, using nothing but our voices, beatbox, and body percussion. In a circle with kind caring people, learn to let go of your fears and find comfort in situations that would normally intimidate you.
Workshops elsewhere
If you want to hire me for a workshop, a retreat, or a CircleSong discovery session, or a collaboration, feel free to contact me.
Possible workshop themes:
- Roots in your life: Finding comfort in difficult situations, work on presence, direct honest communication (including non-verbal communication), movement and rooting exercises. Through CircleSongs, learn to trust yourself even when you feel you have nothing to bring.
- From imagination to creation: Bringing your personal color into CircleSongs, drawing, meditation, imaginary languages and worlds.
- Special voice techniques: Beatbox, overtone, throat singing, powerful singing, meditative singing along with a shruti or other drone instrument. And how to integrate these techniques in CircleSongs.
Looper life workshop
Live looping may be one of the most free way to create music on the spot, from your mind to your voice/instrument, to your machine. See the LoopMachine page.
The machine is like a multi-instrumentalist musician partner, who happily helps you out and plays just as well as you do.
In this future workshop I will teach the students how to compose live with your loop station, integrating tools that you won’t even have to think about as you’re creating your music.
But it’s MUCH broader than this. We will create our own worlds and imaginary cultures and characters, who will help us create diverse music and art.
Private/group
Private lessons are possible too. Depending on your needs, we can work on different aspects of what I teach to groups. The price is the same is you’re alone or with a few friends. That way you can share the price if there are several of you.
