It is aimed at people who want to know their voice better for greater possibilities of expression and well-being in their daily lives, at performing artists, at people who use their voice in their profession...
Vocal technique, theatrical games, body practices, improvisation, world songs in polyphony.
Inhabit your Voice
During these 3 days, we will offer you the opportunity to open up new fields of possibilities for the development of your voice to take them into everyday life or on stage.
Vocalize, speak and listen
with the whole body,
let oneself be carried by the current of life
and sing!
The involvement of the body in the vocal exploration processes associated with the Roy Hart Centre's practice is fundamental. By awakening through the awareness we offer it in movement or observation, each part of the body can then listen, speak, and sing, calling with its whole voice the being to inhabit it more fully.
Group work, in a secure and caring environment, with its playful and theatrical aspect, contributes to a liberating process of opening up.
You will be encouraged to let your intuition live and make your listening more available for improvisation and interpretation.
You will have the opportunity to develop your authentic expression through vocal and bodily practices
We will offer you a sincere listening to guide you in a personal exploration of your voice.
Internship content:
- Body and vocal warm-up times, sometimes on the floor and in physical contact.
- Workshop times to explore the singing and speaking voice
- Individualized times for your personal voice search
- Moments of group singing in polyphony.
"(...)the ability to maintain a strong awareness of our whole body while producing vocal sounds can allow us to develop our ability to navigate complex situations in real life." (Roy Hart)

"I believe that voice work gives students the opportunity to discover their authentic voices. When the body and voice connect, I feel a sense of self-awareness develops and allows life to express itself more fully. Self-awareness leads to awareness of others and promotes relationships of a profound nature."

Delphine Cam
Singer, songwriter, composer and teacher
at the Roy Hart voice Center.
Author and composer, singer in concerts and
shows for over 20 years, I am also
voice teacher inspired by an intuitive practice
singing and the pedagogical approach of the Roy Hart Center.
As a voice teacher, my work in educational support for groups or individual sessions aims to encourage the free expression of the voice and to open spaces of musicality in order to explore and express the unique vocal creative potential of each person in connection with movement and body awareness.
My attraction to rhythm, polyphony and world music influences my musical creativity and also directs my accompaniment towards the transmission of traditional songs and group improvisation.
"I have always felt like a seeker on a path to freedom. Singing, dancing and meditation are for me precious spaces through which I encounter and express the wild, loving and present being that I am. Accompanying other seekers through the "work" (I prefer to say the exploration) of the voice fascinates me in this, a voice that frees itself is a miracle! A voice that loves itself is a miracle, encountering the joy emanating from this process is a grace!"
