Body and Voice: Somatic Re-Education — Marina Gilman (2014)

Book Description

“Body and Voice: Somatic Re-education presents a new paradigm for working with students of voice in a way that allows them to work with their body rather than against it. This text is a valuable resource for teachers of singing, voice coaches, and speech-language pathologists who work with singers and other voice coaches, and speech-language pathologists who work with singers and other voice professionals. It provides tools to guide the student toward self-awareness of habituated patterns, strategies to implement change from the inside out, and lessons to identify patterns that interfere with students’ respiration, phonation, and/or resonance. Existing pedagogical and therapeutic approaches offer little training in the recognition of the subtle, habituated patterns of movement, stance, or tension that can prevent students from successfully optimizing their voice use, whether for acting, singing, or just for fun. Body and Voice: Somatic Re-education addresses how to retrain the student’s neuro-musculo-skeletal system to affect real change”–Back cover.
