Body & Song Workshop

Service Description

We are delighted to announce that Bend, Don't Snap will be holding our first Body & Song workshop on Satuday, June 7th at 12:30pm, hosted by guest instructor Michele Farbman. Details: Body & Song exercises the essential connection between movement, voice and imagination. Through gently guided improvisational movement and small group singing, participants enter a dance that weaves their bodies & voices together. This is a judgement free zone in which we hold space for each other's library of movement to unfold as well as enjoy our singing voices in a small community. No prior movement or vocal training is required. Limit is 6 people. About the facilitator, Michele Farbman: Improvisational movement and singing is a soulful craft Michele learned over a period of five years from her mentor Ben Spatz, (Founder of Urban Research Theater, visiting scholar at University of Oxford and Senior Drama Lecturer at Huddersfield University, UK.) During her years of study and collaboration, Ben and Michele led workshops and gave performances in New York City. At that time, she also directed large scale theater and musical theater productions for Manhattan theater festivals as well as for private clients. She then composed her original musical Dora Maar, which she performed at Dixon Place Theater (NY) and at the LA Women's Theater Festival (Venice Beach). She continues to study voice & movement. Payment: The cost for this workshop is $20 per person, which is to be paid to Michele via Venmo (@Michele-Farbman).
