| Personal Statement: |
| "Good" voice and body training aids in the discovery of the optimal functioning of both voice and body and empowers individuals to fully (a)esthetically and effectively communicate their thoughts and emotions in a healthy, open and expressive manner. This training relies on the habitual awareness of an inner harmonic sensing system rather than being limited to the more simplistic feedback provided by the five external senses. I firmly believe that everyone is capable of this kind of training and, in effect, they become their own "lifelong teacher" because of this awareness. The well-trained voice and body, then, fully reflect (but never over-power) the essence and uniqueness of the individual. |
