The February 3, 2018, session of our foundational Living Your Voice 101 workshop will be held at The Jung Center in Houston, Texas. LYV101 addresses a wide spectrum of challenges that get in the way of our speaking or singing like we’ve always wanted to. We combine fundamental vocal technique with creative performance experiences that will help you build greater confidence.
The next gathering of the Exploring the Power of Voice Meetup Group will be on Friday, February 9, 2018, at A Healing Collective. We’ve taken our title and inspiration for the event from these lyrics:
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun’s love
In the spring becomes the rose.
(from “The Rose” by Amanda McBroom, as popularized by Bette Midler)
Our Living Your Voice 102 class series offers participants an opportunity to build on the vocal technique and personal empowerment process they learned in Living Your Voice 101. This series is project-oriented, and each participant will prepare a speech, a presentation, or a song of their own choosing for a celebration for family and friends at the end of the series.
The next gathering of the Exploring the Power of Voice Meetup Group will be on Friday, March 9, 2018, at A Healing Collective. We’ve taken the title and inspiration for the event from this uplifting favorite:
Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s all right
(excerpt from “Here Come the Sun” by The Beatles, written by George Harrison)
Please join us for our next Living Your Voice 102 Showcase Celebration on April 7, 2018, in the parish hall at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in the Houston Heights.
Instead of our usual gathering format, we have a special treat planned for the April Exploring the Power of Voice Meetup Group event: Catch a comedic evening filled with live performances of hit Broadway songs. The Music Box Theater salutes Broadway musicals in its first 2018 production: Broadway at the Box 2018.
The April 21, 2018, session of our foundational Living Your Voice 101 workshop will be held at the Living Your Voice classroom in the Houston Heights area.

The next gathering of the Exploring the Power of Voice Meetup Group will be on Friday, May 11, 2018, at A Healing Collective. We’ve taken the title and inspiration for the event from a classic tune:
Would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a ?
(from “Swinging on a Star” by Jimmy Van Heusen and Johnny Burke, as popularized by Bing Crosby)
Please join us for a bite to eat before our regularly scheduled Exploring the Power of Voice meetup. A few of us will plan to be there by 5:30 to stake out a table or tables for the group. The Ivy & James offers service at the counter, so it’s okay to arrive whenever you can.
