JETAA SA\/Victoria\/TAS \ud83c\udfb6Voice Circle with Yoko Fujimoto\ud83c\udfb6<\/em><\/p>\n Perhaps there is a dormant voice inside of you that you haven\u2019t heard yet\u2013 one that you haven\u2019t had a chance to \u2018meet\u2019. Yoko Fujimoto\u2019s \u2018Voice Circle\u2019 workshop is a return to the voice in its most primal form, and the introduction of that voice to song.<\/p>\n The goals of the Voice Circle are:<\/p>\n \u26ab\ufe0eTo go beyond the idea of being \u201cgood\u201d or \u201cbad\u201d at singing, and return to the idea of singing for the simple joy of it.<\/p>\n \u26ab\ufe0eTo rediscover yourself through your voice.<\/p>\n \u26ab\ufe0eTo create a space that reflects the energies of each participant. It is Yoko\u2019s hope that this experience is one that leads to rediscovery within the self, and one that you can share with others.<\/p>\n \u26ab\ufe0eTo relax and take an edge off the stresses of everyday life through releasing your voice.<\/p>\n \u26ab\ufe0eTo stimulate the body through exercises which use muscles you may have forgotten you have!<\/p>\n \u26ab\ufe0eTo create an exchange of energy in the workshop that will hopefully change you in some fundamental way, so that you may take a part of it with you into the next day and beyond<\/p>\n \ud83d\udc49When: Sunday June 3rd \ud83d\udc49Venue : Edinburgh Gardens Community Room \ud83d\udc49Please bring a pen<\/p>\n \ud83d\udc49Booking: wasshoi@miyake.org.au \u2606Interpreter: Melanie Taylor<\/p>\n Photo: \u6c5f\u672c\u525b<\/p>\n \ud83d\udd25Yoko and Yoshikazu Fujimoto(KODO)’ gig in Melbourne!<\/p>\n 2ne June, Saturday Date:\u00a0 June 3rd<\/p>\n Time: 14:15 \u2013 16:15 (UTC +10)<\/p>\n Place: Edinburgh Gardens Community Room,<\/p>\n Brunswick St., Fitzroy North, Melbourne<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 8.
