ONLINE ZOOM WORKSHOPS

In April 2020, we began to offer our workshops on the Zoom platform, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. It is our hope that continuing with this online platform can help to feel a sense of solidarity within a more global community, maintain a connection to and fortification of your voice and body during these challenging times, and serve as an act of self-care.

We hope you’ll take advantage of these unique offerings, sharing different exercises and perspectives related to Meredith’s development of the Dancing Voice/Singing Body.



FEBRUARY 22

Janis Brenner‘s session will include a brief physical warm-up, a vocal warm-up with the teaching of a song, and a character study through voice and movement based on archetypes, animals or personal narrative.


MARCH 1

Ellen Fisher’s session will be movement based, using some of Meredith’s language of gestural shaping. She will lead a comprehensive physical warm-up that opens up the channels of expression to explore various dance narratives.


MARCH 8

Lanny Harrison will focus on shape-shifting and transforming characters in changing landscapes and environments within solo forms, working predominantly from a movement base. She will also touch on how mindfulness/awareness practice and meditation can inform all theater work.

“In a time of such deep challenges, having supportive, positive leadership through shared exercises- all in a ‘group’ setting – is invigorating and restorative.”

“This workshop exceeded my expectations and was such a joyful experience! I’ve been an admirer of Meredith Monk & Vocal Ensemble since college but I never imagined that I’d be able to learn directly from an ensemble member! It was such an exciting opportunity.”

“I learned new vocal warm-ups, enjoyed working with another participant across time and space, felt nurtured by community, and learned some crucial pointers for my own teaching (especially online) just by observing.”
