The healing voice

-The voice as your playmate

Voice Workshop with Kefas Berlin from Sweden

at Gite Barané Gabre, France

This workshop is a unique chance to ”open your voice” so that you – who you really are – and the voice that is only yours might come closer to each other.

Kefas guides you in letting your voice be your playmate, a playmate that inspires you and brings out power and joy, a tool for experiensing your self and that plays together with the others’ voices.

This workshop is for anyone who would like to take one step further in to his/her voice and its possobilitys of expressing itself indepedent from previous singing experiences. A workshop for those who ”dont dare to sing” as well as for those with experience.

Breath, voice and movement are combined in a number of playful exercises, which help open you up to your own melodious voice, boost your self-esteem and release your creativity and mutual listening.

Attention! You need No previous experience in singing!

The teacher: Kefas is a voyager in the world of song and he dedicates his life to singing - its source, expression and healing power. He believes that singing is an inherent and much neglected potential and right; that song in its nature is harmonizing and healing; generates peace and goodwill between people; and is an infinite spring of joy and energy.

Born and raised in Stockholm, Sweden, he has worked 30 years pedagogically, therapeutically, and artistically with song, dance, play, and physical theater. For more than a decade he has given singing workshops and retreats in Sweden and internationally.

At present, he is leading a number of choirs (without notes or chairs and for everyone!), giving Singing Retreats while also receiving clients for private sessions in Pranic healing/energy therapeutic sound/voice treatment.

His inspiration are beside teachers as Wolfsohn, Grotowski, Newham and Armstrong, VIckie Dodd, Laurel E. Keyes perhaps most of all, all the people who, in his work, have trustingly shared themselves and their life.

"...The effects I've noticed from the course are partly new energy, curiosity about my voice, a strong self-confidence, and a connection with my body when I sing..."

"...Among the most important things are that I've found my way back to self again; I found my core, the tranquility, the light, the warmth, and not the least, I opened my heart..."

"...The fact that how I use my voice corresponds to how I live my life, is a sensation for me; to ground, deepen, play and improvise..."

"...Kefas with his inspiring, fantastic, non-judgmental, wonderful, intuitive, joyful, playful, warming, allowing, sensitive, real and masterful leadership..."
