Mooove Voice combines classical vocal techniques with fundamental Butoh exercises, exploring the physical sensations of vocal sounds in our bodies and in the space around us. We work up to group improvisational scores by playfully passing sound and movement in simple patterns. No experience necessary, all are welcome!

Walk-ins are encouraged as well; if we are at capacity, you will be placed first for the next event. Mooove Voice will last 90 minutes. As with all Roman Susan events, this event is free at no cost to participants. The movement space at Berger Park is on the third floor of the building, up two flights of stairs. You will need to remove shoes to enter the space. Parking is limited in the area – CTA and ride share encouraged! Please leave feedback in the RSVP form if these factors present any obstacles or concerns that would prevent you from joining us.
