The Best Workshop for Speaking Confidence | Find your Voice
- Do you feel your voice is weak and does not project who you really are?
- Have you always longed to sing?
- Do you need to present well in a range of forums?
85% of people have been told by someone that they cannot sing and have a fear of speaking or singing in public. Yet singing is considered as one of the most important social, creative and healing activities for humans. Be inspired by Tania de Jong’s TEDx Talk ‘how singing together changes the brain’.
In this session you will learn:
- Why finding your unique, authentic voice will transform your life, self-expression and presentations
- Some key tips to help you find greater range, resonance and expand the capacity of your voice
- Sing in harmony with others and experience true joy, freedom and peace
- How to tune into the right, intuitive side of the brain, and unleash more of your creative potential
This workshop is suitable for singers and especially non-singers who have been told they cannot sing or have a fear of speaking in public.
