TRAINING

Are you interested in qualifying and adding Vocal Massage to your toolkit? Do you want to learn how to safely apply the manual techniques used to help singers, voice users and those with voice and swallowing disorders? Drop us a line using the form HERE to register your interest, or sign up to the next available course HERE.


Our workshops are run in Kenilworth, three times per year and over two days. They are purposely designed to be very 'hands-on' to allow you adequate time to practice the techniques in a safe and supportive environment, with guidance from Charles himself. You will be expected to give and receive manual treatment over the duration of the workshop. You will also be expected to complete some pre-course reading to familiarise yourself with some of the anatomy and anatomical terms before attending.


You will be observed throughout the workshop to ensure competency, and providing that you demonstrate this, you will receive a certificate of completion which will allow you to obtain the required insurance** to practice these techniques through our preferred provider BGi UK.
