 MEMBER PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

Here are Member Programs we would like to highlight this month

• BODY of SOUND  with  Ziji Beth Goren

  Intention, story, and memory lay the ground for in-depth Voice-Movement practices in a heart-centered circle.

  What unfolds? Voice-Movement vignettes, gateways to personal balance and performance reach.

  “As a teacher, Beth has shown great capacity for working with both groups and individuals. I have seen her find new and different ways to help others reach their potential.”
  Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen, Founder/Director School for Body-Mind Centering

• Vocal Essence and Pathways to Cross-Cultural Melodies -  Primary benefits of this practice: A period of uninterrupted repetition of simple sacred syllables allows for entry into a serene, meditative state of mind conducive to heightened spiritual awareness.    Weekly vocal practice at HeArt’s Delight Expressive Arts studio, starts Thurs., Sept. 9, 6:30-8:30 pm, to focus on breath, tone, scales, ragas, mantra, chant - first 15 mins. check in, one hour will be continuous, non-interrupted (no conversation back and forth), and then final 45 mins. will be cross-cultural melodies.  

  • Once monthly format (Saturday, 10 am-4 pm, September 25 and October 23)  will allow for joyous expressive movement, improvisational small groups, musical theory development, and more cross-cultural vocalizing, and possibly some instrumental development.  A reference handout of scales (major, minor, pentatonic, explanation of modes, and introduction to North Indian ragas) will be available to registered participants, and an explanation/instruction will be provided on a progressive gradual basis.
