Profile Information:

About me:: In my profession as singing therapist I sing overtones with people who are afraid to sing, with people who want to know better their voice as a friend and become aware of the influence of overtone singing on their body, mind, heart.
My way of working is based on Buddhism filosofy which help people to sing without judging their voice while singing overtones. In my workshops overtones help people to connect with themselves and each other.
The locations of my workshops are Belgium, France, Italy, Spain and Mexico.
I followed the training "Voice, respiration and overtones" given by Borg Groeneveld in Amsterdam during 4 years to become singing therapist. I also followed workshops with Tran Quang Hai.
My native language is Dutch, I also speak French, English and Spanish.
As a band we are:: Since 3 years we have a overtone choir of 8 singers, 4 women and 4 men. From time to time we give a small concert, somethimes collaborating with a polyphonique choir, sometimes more in a meditation environment. We enjoy singing overtones together! It connects us profoundly.
Instruments:: Voice
Influences:: Buddhism, Dhrupad, Taketina, Tai Chi, Tao, Feldenkrais, Mindfulness, mountain walking, travelling.
