SINGING BODY on April 10th with Dohee Lee – REGISTER HERE
*NOTE: Drawing material paper, craypas, and a journal are required for participation! This is a must for these classes.
This workshop pulls from Dohee Lee’s training and practice in Korean Shamanism and performative ritual by utilizing techniques that connect to voice, body, heartbeat, and spirit. How we tune our bodies through sound, movement, and rhythm guides us to navigate and delve deeper into our individual and collective roots, cultural heritages, natural environments, and social consciousness.
Through Lee’s expansive range of vocal techniques, along with rhythms, we will explore sound to create a mystical and universal language. With the tools of breath and rhythm, we tune our body instrument and free our voices to activate sounds, songs, and movement. This workshop expands participants’ expressive vocabularies of feelings, energies, memories, and stories from the current time to the past ancestral time to merge together and create a new art practice.
Registration will take place on Eventbrite. Registration will close a half hour before the start of the class.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Participants must have a Zoom account and be logged into that account to attend. The Zoom account must match the email that they registered with.
The meeting will be locked 15 minutes after the start time – so participants will need to arrive before then.
All participants are strongly encouraged turn on their cameras to help build a safe container, engender connection, and improve security. If you have a specific reason for keeping your camera off, please communicate this to the Zoom host at the start of the workshop.
