✨ Somatic Voice Class ✨

with Jess Aszodi

Like a yoga class, but with vocal exercises, mindful breath & movement, plus honking classic tunes sung all together.

8-9:30pm

Thursdays in January - 9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th.

AKA studios in East Brunswick

A group class for folks who want to open their voices, learn freaky shit about the body, find greater freedom and ease in vocal communication, and most importantly: sing together.

What to expect:

🫁 An experience that’s somewhere between a choir, a yoga class, and a psychosomatic vocal gym.

🧶 A supportive group, where trust and consent create a safe and nurturing container.

🐾 Breathing into parts of yourself you did not imagine…

🔥 Flow and fire

💜 Connection. Grounding. Purgation.

Singing in groups has enormous psychological, social, and physical benefits. Societies throughout human history have placed deeply embodied vocal practices at the center of their rituals and rights of passage. These classes work toward bringing our voices back into our bodies and our bodies back into our voices. We will project ourselves through voice into shared space: attuning, opening, emptying, grieving, soothing and co-regulating. Many exercises are repeated from class to class, with the aim of building ease and familiarity over time, though every class will also introduce new techniques for special themes. For example "Grounding" or "Resonance" or "Getting to know your diaphragm". This is a class designed to open and expand what we think we know about our voices.
