Movement, Voice & Breath: A Journey Into Embodiment with Vaughan Dagnell
An immersive workshop designed to guide you out of the limitations of the thinking mind and into a state of embodied flow and harmony through movement, vocal tuning, and breathwork.
The journey begins with the physical form. We flow through a hybrid of Qigong, guided movement and freeform ‘anything-goes’ ecstatic dance. We awaken the body, release tension, and shift energy, allowing a natural sense of joy and vitality to emerge, Perhaps this is a familiar space, perhaps we meet an edge of ‘being seen’ or ‘being allowed to be’.
Next, we explore the power of our voice as tools for self-expression and release. In a playful, supportive group environment, we experiment with sound using the five vowel tones—exploring volume, rhythm, and texture without attachment to how it ‘should’ sound. This practice helps unlock the voice, encouraging a sense of courage, creativity, and freedom as we step beyond words and into pure expression.
The journey then deepens with Conscious Connected Breathwork, a gentle yet powerful technique that supports relaxation, emotional release, and profound inner clarity. Guided to a curated playlist, this breathwork allows you to move beyond thought and into deep presence. In this state of altered conscience we nurture self acceptance, fresh perspective on stuck emotions, forgiveness, spacious self compassion.
A sharing circle opens and closes the workshop, as we co-create a safe space for growth, expansion and simply ‘being’.
This is an invitation to connect with yourself in new and expansive ways—through movement, sound, and breath. Whether you're looking to energize, release, or simply explore a deeper state of being, this is a space for transformation, presence, and self-discovery.
