UPCOMING EVENTS
Overcoming Stage Fright:
A 3-hour, one-day live workshop to help you conquer your fear and find ease and joy in performance.
Is stage fright preventing you from performing with ease, freedom, and joy? Are you sick and tired of your inner critic judging everything you do and running the show? Do you get so scared when you perform in front of others that sometimes you think it would be easier to just give the whole thing up?
Don’t give up! Stage fright is a natural response of the body and mind to a stressful situation. Most performers, even high level professionals, have experienced stage fright at some point in their lives, and the fact that you experience stage fright does not mean there is something wrong with you. The good news is that there are lots of things you can do to mitigate the effects of stage fright or even stop it from happening in the first place!
In this 3-hour workshop you will learn about the physiological and psychological symptoms of stage fright, practice techniques for calming the body and mind, and learn easy things you can add to your pre-performance routine to prevent stage fright from happening. At the end of this workshop, each participant will have the opportunity to perform a song for the group (optional but strongly encouraged). You’ll walk away armed with knowledge, easy and effective tools, and the confidence that stage fright doesn’t need to stand in your way of giving your best performance!

Roy Willey believes singing is everyone's birthright. As a musician specializing in vocal improvisation, his goal is to guide students past self-judgement and fear, to connect with their inner music. His background as a Sound, Energy, and Meditation Facilitator add to his expertise in using the voice as a tool for mindfulness and healing. He's studied intensively with masters such as Bobby McFerrin, Rhiannon, Meredith Monk, Judi Vinar, and many others.
singing and dancing your authentic self:
an improvisational voice and movement workshop
Summer 2022, Date and Time TBA
via Zoom. $30 ($25 if you register by June 5th.)
Do you have the quarantine blues? Are your voice and body feeling stiff and shut down without an outlet for playful expression? Would you like to learn to sing and move from a place of self-inquiry, delight, and freedom with a deep and vibrant community, without ever leaving your living room?
Join Colorado vocal coaches Roy Willey and Amy Biondo for an afternoon Zoom workshop exploring the intersection of mindfulness with the voice, breath, and body.
Learn the practice of Contemplative Voice and Movement, an improvisational singing and moving meditation, and discover and celebrate your own authentic voice and movement as you practice over a “sound bed” of layered vocals created in the moment by Roy and Amy. The practice of sustained, improvisational singing and moving not only calms the nervous system, it grounds us in the present moment and connects us to our creative, intuitive selves.
In this workshop, you'll explore all of these practices from the comfort and privacy of your own home. All voices welcome, no prior experience necessary.
