The course aim is the renewal and development of the body and voice. Through enlivening of the kinesthetic perception and particular body and vocal imagination we learn to join the skeleton, muscle and emotions, breath and voice. There is individual identifying and exploring their mutual spatial and temporal contexts, and CNS stimulation to automate new patterns in a functional form.

1) Cultivating the mental-physical condition through an approach in which the voice and movement are directly connected.
