Basic Body Check-In

On March 15, 2016March 15, 2016 By bespokecommunicationIn Voice work for Beginners

Hello Everyone!!

Here is a very simple foundation for checking in with the body before more extended voicework or as an easy warm-up before a presentation, performance, or rehearsal. I hope you enjoy and please let me know what you think!

Take Care Friends,

Lindsay and Christine

The next 5 episodes of our "BeSpoke Speaks" podcast are live! ⁠ ⁠ Have you ever been a bundle of nerves before an important communication event? Have you found yourself just wanting to hide under a table and try your hardest to become invisible? Sadie the cat can relate. ⁠ ⁠ Not to worry! Episode 11 is all about helping you manage your nerves in that moment before you speak. This is a short sequence that coaches you through where to place your focus in that moment before, allowing you to stay present, rather than in another world thinking about how nervous you are. You can listen to it ahead of time and then keep the sequence in mind whenever you are in ‘the moment before’. The sequence is very simple but very effective!⁠ ⁠ You can download this episode on iTunes or on BuzzSprout at this link: ⁠ ⁠ http://www.buzzsprout.com/271932⁠ ⁠ If you enjoy what you hear, share with your friends and consider leaving us a rating and review on iTunes! ⁠ ⁠ #managingnerves #voice #warmup #bodylanguage #empowerment #authority #gravitas #breathing #publicspeaking #presence #presentation #performance #actorslife #actor #londonactor #training #voicecoach

We've got 10 episodes of our BeSpoke Speaks podcast! Hallelujah! Let's celebrate with something gentle. ⁠ ⁠ Our 10th episode is a gentle rib opening sequence that will help you breathe more easily. This is great if you find deep breathing difficult or if you find you often hold your ribs in place and they don’t seem to move with ease. Having easy rib movement is key to a powerful voice. So get something comfortable to lie on and grab some pillows– you definitely want to be comfy for this gentle sequence.⁠ ⁠ You can download this episode on iTunes or on BuzzSprout at this link: ⁠ ⁠ http://www.buzzsprout.com/271932⁠ ⁠ If you have been going on this podcast journey with us, we would love to hear from you! How is it going? What questions do you have? Your question might even get featured on a future podcast. Also, if you're enjoying your listening experience, please consider giving us a rating and review on iTunes. We want this podcast to keep growing and growing and that starts from small steps of support from listeners like you. If you already have left us a rating and review, we thank you! ⁠ ⁠ Happy breathing!⁠ ⁠ #breathing #ribs #voice #release #relaxation #mindfulness #warmup #actor #actorslife #londonactor #publicspeaking #presence #embodied #voicecoach #ease

First podcast review is in! “This podcast is truly fantastic. The way they break everything down, it’s so easy to follow and understand. I particularly enjoyed the two part episode on Breath Support. This reminded me of my training as an actor and gave me some real insight on what I can do as I move forward on my journey as a voice user. I’m so grateful for all of the voice podcasts out there, especially this one! Thank you Christine and Lindsay!” Have you checked out our BeSpoke Speaks podcast yet? If you like what you hear, please consider leaving us a rating and review on iTunes. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ You can download on iTunes or on BuzzSprout here: ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ http://www.buzzsprout.com/271932⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #podcast #shepodcasts #voice #communication #publicspeaking #presence #breathing #actor #actorslife #londonactor #training #voicecoach #confidence #bodylanguage

If you have ever been told that you don’t sound authoritative enough, or that you aren’t grounded enough, then the sequence in the 9th episode of our BeSpoke Speaks podcast is for you. ⁠ ⁠ In this episode, we explore finding an authoritative sound that feels authentic to you and helps you connect on a deeper level to what you are saying. It’s good for public speakers who want to convey their message with credibility and for actors (or anyone!) who feel like their emotions cause them to constrict and lose their ground.⁠ ⁠ You can download this episode on iTunes or on Buzzsprout at this link: ⁠ ⁠ http://www.buzzsprout.com/271932⁠ ⁠ Let us know how it goes and, if you find this useful, please share with a friend and consider leaving us a rating and review on iTunes. ⁠ ⁠ #authority #grounding #vocalauthority #grounded #presence #resonance #voice #speech #publicspeaking #presentationskills #stagefright #actors #actorslife #londonactor #performer #managingnerves #voicecoach #training #warmup

Getting ready to make a new #podcast episode Have a question about your #voice or communication generally? Send it our way and it may be featured on a future episode.

We couldn’t help ourselves and had to use another Anchorman reference for our second sequence for camera work. ⁠ ⁠ Our 8th BeSpoke Speaks podcast episode is the sequel to our 'Voice for Camera' episode. The first sequence focused on your vocal power, and this one focuses more on your speech clarity. Both are important to being understood. This is a great sequence if you work on camera or you are using microphones at live “performance” events (whether that be acting or giving presentations).⁠ ⁠ You can download this episode on iTunes or on Buzzsprout at this link: ⁠ ⁠ http://www.buzzsprout.com/271932⁠ ⁠ Let us know how it goes and if you enjoy what you hear, consider sharing with a friend and leaving us a rating and review on iTunes! ⁠ ⁠ #voice #hownowbrowncow #ronburgundy #broadcasting #broadcaster #publicspeaking #articulation #clearspeech #speech #camera #performer #presence #londonactor #actor #actorslife #training #warmup #voicecoach
