Everyone has a voice! And so many of us enjoy singing to ourselves, in the shower, and along to the car stereo. But somehow we can also be really self-conscious about how we sound and about singing in front of others.

So how do we learn more about singing and the voice outside of formal music lessons? Finding Your Voice: An Intro to Singing with Alex is how.

This class is designed for those who love to sing for themselves and who want to know a little more about how the voice works, how to develop vocal skills and how to maintain vocal health. This highly interactive class provides an introduction to basic vocal skills and techniques to provide you with an insight into the human voice as well as exercises to further develop your singing skills!

This event will be half social chats with a bunch of like minded queer people and half fun, educational and interactive workshop.

All workshops are taught by queers, for queers.

What will we cover?
This interactive class will use a series of exercises and activities to get us singing and unpacking the anatomy and functionality of the human voice.

What will you need?
Just yourself
