November 10: What You Don’t Know About Your Voice

With Deena Noroian, Voice Up

You use your voice every day—but most of us were never taught how it actually works. Join author and professional voice coach Deena Noroian for an interactive introduction to the human voice and the surprising connections between breathing, physical habits, emotion, aging and the way we speak and make sound. The hour will include simple demonstrations, an optional exercise, and time for questions. No singing experience is required, and no one will be put on the spot.
