VOCAL WORKSHOPS - “DISCOVER YOUR VOICE” VOICE LABORATORY

About the event

PERSONAL AND SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT CENTER "HERE AND NOW" IN NOWE KAWKOWO invites you on September 13-14, 2025 to a vocal workshop for beginners in Warsaw 🎤 “DISCOVER YOUR VOICE” VOICE LABORATORY HOSTED BY: OLGA SZWAJGIER “I believe that every person is creative. Improvisation is... innate. You just need to focus on yourself and believe in yourself. Visible vibration is light, and audible vibration is sound. You see and hear sound and color. Because it is the same.” /Olga Szwajgier/ We invite you to a vocal workshop with Olga Szwajgier – one of the greatest sopranos in the world, but also a charming woman full of joy and humor, gifted with an extraordinary ability to work with people. Classes with her are pure pleasure. At the beginning, Olga helps each participant find their own personal sound and the place where it is born within them. She teaches how to produce sound effortlessly. And all of this happens with her kind and warm support. In the first workshop, participants do not work with specific musical material such as songs or compositions. Beginners work only with sound, as it is crucial to learn proper voice emission at the very start of their “vocal journey.” Olga's workshops are intended not only for amateurs but also for vocalists, actors, teachers, and people for whom a clear and resonant voice is essential in their work. From Olga's teaching experience, it is clear that there are no people without hearing, voice, or rhythm; there is only a lack of skill in using these means of expression. Olga teaches how to sing with the whole body, believing that what is accessible to her is also accessible to others. Therefore, I encourage everyone who wants to open up to this new and extraordinary form of self-expression to participate in the workshop. A workshop with Olga Szwajgier is primarily about searching, discovering oneself and one's sound. The classes inspire exploration and discovery of hidden vocal possibilities, help rebuild self-confidence, teach tolerance and self-acceptance, and show how to use mistakes as “masterpieces” in personal growth. Olga does not impose a single correct path; on the contrary – she shows that copying others is a loss of oneself. She encourages using the power of intuition, imagination, visualization, and autosuggestion. She bases her method on the harmony of body, mind, and spirit. She teaches how to heal your voice and soul. “When the right sound passes through the human body, prolonged and melodic – under the influence of vibration reaching every single cell, all blockages dissolve within us, energy centers are stimulated. Singing, joyful singing, in praise of God, or however we name it, reaches the deepest regions of the body and soul. It makes us better, more open to the world, and allows us to see its most beautiful aspects.” /Olga Szwajgier/ 🎯 Workshop program: - Learning Olga Szwajgier's unique method of working with the voice - Learning voice emission specific to this method, voice control techniques, and working on conscious sound - Discovering vocal possibilities - Exploring individuality and expression through sound - Learning to overcome stage fright - Basic sound - Sound and diction based on the entire instrument, which is the human being as a whole - Voice as the foundation of good communication - Facilitating communication through clear pronunciation and pure sound - Voice as a tool for stress management - Healing role of sound - Importance of imagination - Learning and practicing relaxation techniques 🎵 Host: OLGA SZWAJGIER World-renowned vocalist, soprano.
