Inside to Outside

a voice liberation day in english
with kes blans
May 2, 2026 in amsterdam

Voice Liberation is about creating a connection between your inner and outer worlds.

It’s not about singing beautifully or achieving something through your singing. It’s about authenticity: allowing yourself to be exactly where you are right now, and giving expression to that. The inward journey invites you to look honestly at what is present within you. Then the outward journey—through singing—can feel incredibly freeing, because you give what is alive in you (whatever it may be!) the right to exist, the space to be. And everything you give space to can begin to move again.

EVERYONE CAN SING

No one has your voice; no one has your story. When you learn to trust that, you will begin to feel increasingly free in your singing. In a small group (max. 12 participants), you will explore your expression, your sound, your singing.

Perhaps you can sing beautifully but feel that something is still holding you back. Perhaps it works when you’re alone but not when others are listening. Or maybe you think you can’t sing but still feel the longing to do so. We believe singing is not a skill that some people have and others don’t. Singing is something natural. So you don’t have to try hard to sing as well as possible. You already can sing.

The day consists of:

• Bodywork
• Meditation
• Connecting body and voice
• Reflecting on what is happening within you
• Singing in the group, in pairs, and solo

We continually return to the questions: “What is alive in me right now?” and “How does this sound in my singing?”
The focus is on connecting with what lives within you and allowing yourself to come forward through your voice.

Note: this workshop will be given in English
