Embodied vocal techniques for movers with Kestrel Farin Leah
Monday, 19th of June 2023, 17:00-20:00, Dancehouse Lefkosia
An all-levels workshop offering tools for freer, more supported vocalization—for dancers working with voice and performers/vocalists who move. A constellation of corporeal exercises, based on the psychophysical practice of Theodoros Terzopoulos and integrating principles from contemporary dance and somatic techniques, connects functions of body, breath and voice and touches upon paralinguistics, text and song through playful ensemble work. Approaching the voice as pnevma—both breath and spirit—we work to release tension, cultivate presence, and unearth the naturally free voices we were born with.
Kestrel Farin Leah is an interdisciplinary performer and director and co-founder of Physical Plastic theatre project with composer/sound artist Yiannis Christofides. She dedicated 10 years to the Suzuki Method of Actor Training in the US and Japan, and is a qualified teacher of the methods of Theodoros Terzopoulos.
