Learn to take up space, find balance & equilibrium in revolutionary authenticity. This is a great way to get a taste of what I offer in private voice lessons, without having to make the same commitment of time and money.
Learn:
- body awareness
- breath control
- improvisation
- self-leadership
- group synergy
- songwriting skills
- rounds
- chants
- protest songs
This class is designed for all abilities and voices. You do not have to be a "good singer." We have all received messages from the world about the worthiness of our voices, and we carry that legacy in our throats and our bodies. This is a space to release old assumptions and get to know your voice in a supportive, flexible, loving container, through play, practice, and experimentation.
I especially love working with queers, trans and nonbinary people, women, people with disabilities, people of color, and others who have been systematically silenced and shut down. As a white jewish non-binary disabled queer femme, I find this practice to be extremely informative in understanding how we take up space, how we claim and share power, how we inhabit our bodies and access our full range of feeling and expression in relation to our environment. This is one of the ways that I seed social justice, and I offer these tools to you with an open heart and buoyant spirit.
Come make beautiful, weird, pretty, dissonant, dramatic, soulful music with your voice, your body, and your community. No need to register, just show up. Email me if you have any questions: nomylamm@gmail.com.
