Tuesday Feb 7th

Today we continued to explore our breath-"the fuel for our voice". We first worked with partners to discover where our "habitual" breathing" patterns are then we did some work on the foor moving our pelvis during inhalation to try and feel the breath low in our bodies.  We explored some different exercises to get the breath lower-panting like a dog, hanging and wrapping the arms and child's pose. We then released sound on "huh"- relaxed and coming from the center of our bodies.

Finally we did partner exercises for releasing tension in the neck and shoulder-"Puppet arms!" Thanks for jumping in everyone. Great work.

For Thursday: 
1. Read Voice handout
2. Bring a mirror in for class on Thursday
3. Continue reading Freeing (finish chap 4 by Tuesday the 14th and turn in response sheet #1)
4. Choose a poem (that you love) and memorize it. (At least 6 lines, no more than 10)
