New York City Five-Day Workshop
/May 26- 30, 2023

Chelsea area of Manhattan, New York City
Course value:$800 USD.
This is an in-person workshop. All participants will need to show proof of Covid-19 vaccination and follow all local Covid guidelines.
This 5-day intensive workshop is designed to both introduce Fitzmaurice Voicework® to people new to the work as well as provide those already familiar with the work with a more in-depth experience of their voice, breath, and body. Participants will learn the fundamental techniques of Fitzmaurice Voicework®: Destructuring®, to explore a free range of breathing and voice, and Restructuring®, to practice breath management and focused intention. Participants will then explore how these techniques apply to and support work with text, speech and articulation, and singing. You will finish the experience with a new understanding of your breath, your body, and your voice, and how to organically engage all three to speak or sing with a deeper sense of connection.
There is more information on the work on our homepage www.fitzmauriceinstitute.org. We encourage you to read the About page, as well as read the “Interview” by Saul Kotzubei with Catherine, and Catherine's articles “Breathing is Meaning” and “Structured Breathing”—all 3 are available as free downloads on the website Resource Writings page.
