A rare chance to work with Frankie Armstrong and explore myth, movement, and voice in this intimate, one-day workshop.
About this Event

Led by Frankie Armstrong, a pioneer of the natural voice movement, The Voices of the Archetypes of Myth offers an embodied exploration of sound, imagination, and expression.

Through movement, breath, and storytelling, we will encounter the voices within us—The Huntress, The Trickster, The Child, The Mother, The Crone—as living, symbolic qualities that shape how we sound and relate.

As we move through these archetypal landscapes, the voice begins to shift—opening into new textures, colours, and resonances. This is not about getting it ‘right’, but about rediscovering a voice that is already there.

Frankie creates a supportive, playful, and non-judgemental space, inviting you to listen, explore, and express with freedom.

This approach may feel particularly resonant for those familiar with the embodied and symbolic foundations of Sesame dramatherapy.


✨ What to expect
  • Guided vocal and movement explorations
  • Archetypal voice work through imagination and storytelling
  • Expansion of vocal range, colour, and resonance
  • A sense of connection—to self, to others, and to voice as a shared human experience

No previous singing or voice experience is required.


🌱 Who is this for?
  • Dramatherapists and arts therapists
  • Voice practitioners and performers
  • Central alumni
  • Therapists, facilitators, and creatives
  • Anyone interested in exploring their voice

⚠️ Limited spaces

This is an intimate workshop with only 18 places available, ensuring a contained and supportive group experience.
