For years Sandra has been working with voices that need extra help – either with posture issues or constriction, restricted breathing, tiredness and exhaustion resulting in strain etc and she has been using bodywork to help alleviate many of these problems. Sandra has been studying Thai Yoga Bodywork and has been amazed and delighted with the positive postural and breathing changes for singers and non- singers.

This is a fantastic aid for singers to improve posture – after a session singers stand taller and wider, with shoulders down and a long released neck, they really understand the difference of the ‘before’ and ‘after.’ Singers are much more connected to their breathing and feel deeply relaxed and grounded. This has a hugely beneficial result on their resonance and the ease of singing. Getting a singer to understand that they are putting in too much effort when singing – working too hard at it – can be an interesting journey, as many just can’t tell if they are or how they are doing it!

Thai Yoga Bodywork really helps a person to reconnect and understand their body, where they hold tension, often WHY they hold tension, as well. Sandra has seen amazing results through her sessions - with released bad backs, more flexible knees, relaxed shoulder problems and lower breathing, everything starts to loosen up and this frees up a singer to reengage with their vocal instrument and embrace their sound making.

It is a fantastic tool for post touring singers – it undoes the tiredness fuelled by adrenaline and the aches and strain of constant driving and performing. In those precious days of rest between gigs, TYB helps reset the body so you can rest and recuperate and be bouncing back for the next leg of the tour. A certain singer of a well known Folk duo regularly pops in pre and post tour to reset – it works for him!

The sessions are also popular with sound engineers, post tour, too and they love it just as much. It’s a highly effective way to let your body know to rest and switch off whilst it can!
