This experiential workshop will explore the Miller Voice Method's (mVm)® Active Breath. An embodied breathing technique that strengthens communication and presense, the power of flow state. Participants will learn about the elements that create impactful and memorable communication along with the somatic realities that get in the way of those outcomes. Participants will leave with tangible and repeatable somatic skills that they can apply immediately to elevate their ability to see and be seen.
Simply, the practice assists in the ability to involve oneself with present information, both in the experience of expression and impression. This multidisciplinary nature of its approach has made it relevant and accessible for somatic practitioners/trainers and those simply seeking improved outcomes alike. Below is a more detailed accounting along with references of attestation and application.
Miller Voice Method (mVm), the Active Breath: The Active Breath is a methodology that enhances presence and flow state. It is grounded in somatic awareness, both interoception and proprioception. It is a unique approach created to keep people in a flow state during performance and especially under the pain point of pressure.
This approach was developed with high performance individuals involved in somatic practices over a span of 25 years and embraced by top acting conservatories in the world (including NYU/Tisch, The Juilliard School, David Geffen School of Drama at Yale University, University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, etc.). The approach trains practitioners in behaviours leading to a rapt and compelled audience.
The method was selected, internationally, in Routledge’s 2023 publication of “Vocal Traditions: Training in the Performing Arts…Vocal Traditions explores the 18 most influential voice training techniques and methodologies internationally of the past 100 years,” and has been utilized in various non-academic settings that routinely deal with dysregulation. These include our target medical segment at UNC Health Hospitals, the Juvenile Care/Foster Care System (Bronx, NY), Departments of Public Policy (Mediation), NYC K-12 Public School classrooms, Chicago Women’s Health Center, Political sectors, Prison Systems, On-air anchors @ Bloomberg, Trial Attorneys (DC Bar).
