Join Christine Burke on Saturday, June 27 for this one day Speech workshop.
Speaking with My Whole Self
Saturday, June 27, 2026 | 9am-3pm
Speech Workshop with Christine Burke
Through our speech, we impact the world and those around us. Our inner life flows outwards over our vocal cords on our breath, influencing those around us. In earlier times, people had a deeper feeling for the power and importance of the word to do good or to do harm. Today, real communication through the human voice is being undermined. We are losing both the capacity to carry our inner world out on the waves of our words as well as the ability to perceive the other and their inner world through our senses.
Working with speech activities will enliven and strengthen the organs of speech and the ability to carry living pictures, clear thoughts, and forces of the heart in our words. Teachers who use their voice everyday in the classroom will benefit from this care for speech and learn to nourish their students through enlivened descriptions and storytelling.
This workshop is an opportunity to find your voice and is open to anyone who is interested. All levels of experience are welcome.
Christine Burke currently teaches Communication Studies at Ventura College and Logodynamics/The Arts of Speech privately, in groups, at workshops, trainings, and here at BACWTT. Her passion for words began at a young age and has led to and through theater and English literature, a degree in Linguistics, Waldorf teaching in the US and Sweden, Rudolf and Marie Steiner’s “Sprak Gestaltung,” the Michael Chekhov approach to acting, and an MA in Communication Studies focusing on Communication Education, Classical, and Performance Studies.
