COURSE OVERVIEW
Breath powers the voice and it is to the breath that we must always return.
Take a day out of your busy schedule, leave the laptop behind and come to a quiet, leafy, peaceful day retreat in Bristol. The morning workshop will explore the power of voice and breath with a number of exercises to regulate your nervous system.
After lunch we will enjoy a relaxing yet invigorating outdoor spa session. This beautiful space has been designed with nature and curiosity in mind. Come as you are and leave deeply relaxed and inspired.
