Four gifted facilitators collaborate to bring you this delicious week exploring sound and voice.
Whether you are a practitioner, artist, musician, healer, therapist, teacher, professional or group facilitator your work/life will be enriched with new awareness and skill incorporating the collective wisdom of traditional and leading edge sound healing methods.
Sessions include:
Extended Vocal Techniques: Learn and play with classical and extended vocal techniques and methods including: toning, speaking, singing, overtoning, vocal harmonics, microtones, filtering, water and air sounds, ingressive sounds, vowels and consonants of English and foreign languages, phonemes, sacred seed syllables, and more. VoiceMoves Yoga: yoga postures, vocal techniques, mudras, mantras, visualisation and meridian and chakra based energy exploration to develop specific aspects of voice production. You will learn simple partner yoga and massage as well as techniques to provide support and ease during the classes. On this retreat we will be engaging a different elemental quality and its relationship with the voice each day. Group Vocal Composition: Group sounding improvisation is presented as a compositional tool, using specifically crafted parameters to sculpt and focus compositional elements. The Sounding Circles compositions are recorded and given to you as group-authored sonic art pieces!Cost: variable see kalani.com

Carmelle Moore
I am passionate about supporting every body and voice to express their full potential with power and joy.
Sensitive and creative in my approach, I am committed to harmonizing the vibration of the individual through the Voicessence transformational processes I have developed. I have been living and teaching in the Byron Bay area for the past 7 years where I work with actors, singers, yoga teachers, teachers, presenters and anyone wanting to find more ease, efficiency and joy with their voice.
I feel incredibly fortunate to have been part of the inaugural InterPlay group in Australia in 1994 with the inspirational Trisha Watts and Rod Pattendon, whose ongoing support and creative collaboration have been invaluable. My individual and group work has been strongly influenced by InterPlay practices and philosophy (Incremental and community building Improvisational Voice, Movement & Story). The values of honouring the wisdom of the body, playfulness, affirmation, instrumentality and the physicality of grace allow holistic integration of transformation whatever modality I am working with. I completed my training as a facilitator of ?InterPlay? in 2002 and have taught many classes and workshops since. I constantly draw on the practice of InterPlay to ground my work with joy, delight and ease.
