The Quantum Voice: Live Your Best Life Now!
One of the most amazing things about the human voice is its ability to reflect our emotions. Depending on the pitch, tone and vibrations in your voice, you can share your feelings or help convey the feelings of others, this same skill is used in singing.
Vocal techniques – designed to improve your singing ability – are also meant to help you create emotion using nothing but your vocal chords. In addition, the voice has the ability to soothe and calm, as well as entertain, captivate and enlighten. When you learn to sing, you are learning how to communicate using sound which can also be transposed to the speaking voice.
Your Voice and Life:
There are many ways in which techniques used in singing can also be used in life. The ability to succeed as a singer mirrors life in so many ways that the possibilities are nearly endless. Consider these five essential aspects of the successful singer and how they directly relate to your life on a day-to-day basis.
– Confidence: The true singer does not just need confidence and that fascinating spark to perform in front of a crowd. A singer needs to display confidence in order to get the attention of the listeners. Those that do not show confidence in their voice are easily passed off and ignored, no matter how good the singing talent. The same is true in life. By showing you have confidence, are attentive and excited about life you cause others to listen to you because you show them that you are confident and knowledgeable in what you are saying. Being able to speak up in a crowd melodically and by knowing the correct vocal methods in order to do so, is also useful for impressing others and getting your point across.
– Sharing Emotions: In a voice that is filled with sincerity, clarity, caring loving and with the correct projection you will see great results! Learning to sing or hone your speaking voice means that you are learning how to communicate your emotions through sound and this same form of verbal/non-verbal communication can be used in the interactions in your daily life as well. One of the most common causes of problems in personal relationships is that the communication between two people is not in sync – that is, one when person is sad or angry, the other person is unable to pick up on it or misdiagnoses its importance via tuning in auditoryly. Singing and learned speaking skills allows you to tune in and understand just how others hear you, and how to change and utilizes the various aspects of the voice, in the use of tones etc to show your true feelings and create the response that you want from others. The human voice is more than just a tool or instrument to communicate words. It is is provine scientifically to also be one of the greatest medicine for your body and your soul.

Music’s In Your Soul: David Darling / Grammy Winning Artist
If you have ever dreamed about boldly unleashing your creativity through music, movement, or art, rediscover your inner artist in this energetic and inspirational play-shop, where we experience the joy of music-making with Grammy Award-winning artist David Darling
Throughout the week, in a fun and supportive environment, we discover that it is never too late to reconnect with our natural creativity and musical intuition. We learn how to eliminate stage fright and shed our negative musical self-image; and we creatively express ourself through music and movement in spontaneous new ways.
Come and rejoice as we clap, jingle, drum, chant, make strange sounds, sing on- and off-key, use our bodies as musical instruments, and celebrate the improvisational musician, artist, dancer, and performer within each of us. With new musical self-confidence, we take home an outline of improvisational skills and techniques that can be explored alone or with a group of friends.
No previous experience in making music is necessary. This workshop is appropriate for musicians and non-musicians, educators, artists, performers, entertainers, and anyone longing to bring more self-expressive music into their lives in a dynamic and interactive way.

Finding Happiness & Peace of Mind In Challenging Changing Times
Clearly, these are a very stressful times for more and more people. Increasing amounts of anxiety, fear, and depression are generating tremendous amount of stress, which in turn are impacting people’s sense of well-being and health. It has been well documented that many major illnesses, including cancer, can be directly linked to stress-related emotional states.
Stress lowers the immune system, causes hormones to not function properly, and even affects the neurotransmitters in the brain. Stress is not simply an annoyance to be tolerated or ignored. Stress is a serious health issue that needs to be addressed and dealt with, if one wants to live a long and healthy life.
Within this last decade, singing has been studied by scientists who research alternative medicine. They discovered that singing has unique stress fighting powers and are even more effective than simple music therapy.
For example, researchers at a major university found that after giving patients a 24-week singing therapy treatments, a significant percentage of the control group showed increased levels of melatonin (which affects sleep and the immune system), norepinephrine and epinephrine (neurotransmitters used to regulate stress levels).
Another control group of seniors were directed to sing twice a week for 26 weeks. This singing group showed significantly lower anxiety scores, and improved mood/depression scores than the non-singing group. The singing group was also found to feel less lonely. Feelings of loneliness have been shown to have measurable effects on health, especially in the elderly.
Singing has also been found to help children as well as adults develop better communication & concentration skills. This can lead to higher academic achievements & higher self-esteem. Singing enriches a child’s life experience, giving them a sense of purpose and accomplishment. Singing can bring more happiness into the home and a deeper bonding between family members. And the gift of singing is one that lasts a lifetime.

During this workshop, where we explore non sectarian devotion singing history and culture through a wide range of vocal music and songs from around the world. It is also a wonderful opportunity to experience the immense happiness a child finding their own beautiful natural voice.
A Global Virtual Children’s Choir
Part of our vision is to create an educational singing DVD for children this DVD will be gifted to underprivileged children here at home as well as around the world. From this program a virtual choir will be set up, the focus will include children living in countries that are at war with each other as an example for the leaders of those countries that if their children can sing in together and raise their voices together in harmony they can too. Our hope is to encourage and inspire them to see that they two can find common ground and learn that all voices can be heard in peace and harmony. Bringing awareness to the simple rule that music transcends all barriers. The vehicle for this is that the students will participate in a virtual choir sining songs that gives hope, goodwill and encourage peace. Our marketing efforts will be to launch this on the internet and encourage an organic viral presence on the internet. Our dream is to take the children on tour around the world to participate in events that promote peace, goodwill, enviormental as well as humanitarian concerns.
