8 weeks to explore what sound might open in you
Starting Sunday October 11th
Small group · 8 weeks · 90 minute sessions with recordings
YOUR VOICE IS ALWAYS THERE FOR YOU
Your voice knows you. It moves out from you and returns to you.
In Inner Song, we explore that relationship through breath, humming, toning, intuitive singing, creative expression and silence so you can deepen trust in the sound and voice that is yours.
The invitation
DISCOVER YOUR OWN VOICE. Not a perfect voice. Not somebody else's voice. Inner Song is an invitation to uncover what is already yours and already within you. We explore the voice not as something to perfect, but as something to feel, follow and discover.
You don't need to be a singer. These are not singing lessons. You simply need to be curious about what your voice feels like in your body and what becomes possible when you give yourself permission to express it.
WHAT WE EXPLORE
THE BODY
Body awareness, breath, sensation and movement as ways of listening.
SOUND
Humming, toning, resonance, intuitive singing and vocal improvisation.
SILENCE + LISTENING
Slowing down, listening inwardly and taking the practice into nature.
EXPRESSION
Poetry, writing, movement and sound to come close to and give form to what wants to emerge.
WITNESSING
Sharing sound, listening to others and experiencing what it means to be heard.
HOW YOU MIGHT FEEL BY THE END OF THE 8 WEEKS
MORE AT HOME IN YOUR BODY.
MORE CONNECTED TO YOUR OWN SOUND.
MORE TRUSTING OF YOUR VOICE.
MORE FREE IN YOUR EXPRESSION.
MORE COMFORTABLE BEING HEARD.
MORE CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT YOUR VOICE CAN OPEN.
MORE ABLE TO LISTEN TO YOURSELF, TO OTHERS AND TO THE WORLD AROUND YOU.
SOUND IS A BRIDGE.
Between inner and outer.
Between body and expression.
Between silence and being heard.
It doesn't have to be loud. The point isn't how big your expression is. The point is that it is yours, that it is real.
THE JOURNEY
What are you arriving with.
Opening ritual and somatic exploration. Uncovering beliefs, doubt and conditioning around expression.

Your voice doesn't end when the course ends. It’s with you everywhere you go.
“I believe in kindness. Also in mischief. Also in singing, especially when singing is not necessarily prescribed.”
― Mary Oliver
Before I ever had the thought or desire to sing for others, I first sang for myself and for Earth. It was first my way of expressing the range of love and pain within me.
Singing and writing from my heart have been some of the most important practices in my own journey of becoming. When I let myself sing or sound without an end goal, I feel a deep sense of connection and empowerment. When my sound doesn't need to achieve anything, it can simply move through me and into the world. I have come to understand that this can be my greatest offering to life.
As a 15-year-old I first learnt how to play guitar. My mother noticed a poetic desire in me and fostered a love for music and writing. Over the years, my voice slowly became a place where I found home, confidence and a deeper connection to myself. Eventually, it led me to recording and releasing my first album, Return, 7 songs that have been friends and teachers. Following my voice and music has opened doorways and led me to creating my dreams, including collaborate with brilliant musicians that I love and admire.
And this is why I've created Inner Song: to journey with others into what becomes possible when your voice gives you permission to be.
