A different approach
to singing.
Your singers will be free to sing.
By using their whole bodies, your choir will gain a basis for healthy technique, freedom of expression, and a secure choral sound.
Singers learn to sing better
by learning to move better.
Choral Mapping is a supplemental curriculum for all choirs from middle school through adult. Using the principles of Body Mapping, singers will systematically, through a series of lessons, learn to attend to the movements of singing. By learning to sing with their whole bodies, choirs will gain a secure choral sound, freedom of expression, and a basis for healthy technique.
Welcome to Choral Mapping
Your singers will be free to sing
Singing is a physical activity. Using the whole body effectively and learning to move from a place of balance improves standing, sitting and breathing. Choral Mapping teaches the body to respond freely to postural muscles, thereby freeing the voice. Students can then use this balance in their every day life when walking, climbing stairs, lifting heavy objects, etc.
A Singing Problem is a
Movement Problem
Choral Mapping is based on the science of Body Mapping. Neuroscientists are currently researching the way that the body maps in our brains affect our movement. Singing is movement. If you want to sing better you must address the movements of singing.
