“This course is helping me so much! I’m a choir conductor, not a band conductor, but I’m finding that these techniques are very applicable, and are transforming the way I conduct. I have been able put them into practice immediately as I learn them. I highly recommend this for anyone looking to become a more confident, relaxed, and effective conductor. Also, I find myself with less aches and pains at the end of the day because I’m holding my body in a more aligned and natural position.”
