Open Voice Training
24 February – 2 March 2025
A two-year professional training of working with voice. A method that expands the voice while expanding the capacity of the human being. It develops the full range of voice shapes that a human being is capable of, and along with it awakens, energizes and refines the physical, emotional and mental areas in which the voice originates. It is a work that affects all layers of the voice, including its regions which are yet unknown. It is a way to save our inherent ability to sing spontaneously, to express with singing what we experience inside. Here singing is a creative and spiritual activity, a therapeutic tool and a means of self-expression.
The human voice is infinitely variable. In an immense range of its forms it can reflect any physical, emotional or mental state. This work allows you to expand the range of diverse voice vibrations while multiplying strength of your voice. It reveals, awakens and clears the places or areas of the body where various vibrations and shades of voice are born. It develops the voice in relation to its source and seeks its cause. Full experiencing gives the voice charge and fills it with feeling. Its vibrations then penetrate even the strongest armour and fill with living vibration places that were previously blocked, insensitive. At the same time, emotional capacity is expanding and a mental upswing comes.
The training is suitable for therapists, teachers, group leaders, shamanic practitioners, singers, actors, musicians, life coaches, but also for anyone who has a voice and the desire to use it to discover a new world inside while establishing a connection with the outside world.
During the training, you go through your own deep process of revealing your voice. The voice will be the means to allow you to enter into many dimensions of being. You will gradually reconnect with the endless richness of sound vibrations within yourself, and you will gain the ability to express the uniqueness of each moment through unbound free singing.
At the same time, you are preparing to guide other people on the path of opening their voice. You will learn to tune to and read in a particular voice. You will learn the relationship between voice and body posture, the connection of physical energy, emotional, mental and spiritual states. You will learn how to support uniqueness of a voice and how to facilitate natural voice development and with it also the person’s energy.
A prerequisite for participation in the training is prior experience with Komala’s voice work. In case you haven’t been to any of her weekend voice workshops yet, contact us at druna@druna.cz about future opportunities to have that workshop.
The capacity of the training is limited to 28 participants.
Training structure
The work is divided into 6 modules and proceeds from the deepest sounds inherited from our ancestors and sounds associated with physical experiences to the highest frequencies of your mind and the tones of the subtle layers of experiencing from which it enters the depth of inner silence.
Module 1 – Nourishing the Vessel 5 – 9 June 2024 (4 days)
Connecting with the earth and your roots. Exploring the lowest sound vibrations that can resonate in the body. Nourishment received from the earth. The influx of strength and vitality in the physical body. Reconnection with the basic instinctive energy.
The quality of the sounds originating in the region of the 1st chakra gives the voice and singing embodiment and balance

Variety of sound vibrations contained in the 2nd chakra brings strength, life, playfulness and depth into the singing voice. These qualities are supported by the embracing resonance of womb sounds.

Exploration of the qualities of sounds in the area of solar plexus. Straightforwardness, power and expansion in the singing voice. Deep work with the diaphragm and its role in increasing the capacity of the breath and a way of using it to regulate the volume of the voice.
The area of the heart as a subtle yet powerful space filled with chest resonance, the transformation of sounds into a balm that caresses and opens up without judgment to anything that is.
The voice coming from the 3rd chakra speaks about your own value, reveals charisma, brings joy. The ability and desire to occupy space, expose itself and shine resonates in it. Vibration of sound in the 4th chakra – areas of the heart bring to the singing voice velvet, delicate and round quality that can evoke amazement, love, compassion and gentleness.

Komala de Amorim (Brazil)
I am born in Brazil, where I graduated in Art Education and start exploring the voice and spontaneous singing as ways to make contact with my inner self. In my early twenties I moved to India and lived for many years at the Osho meditation Resort, where I learned, experienced and taught a variety of transpersonal and meditative therapies, self-development techniques and body-work.
Many years of meditation practice, self-enquiry and singing skills, combined with exploration of spiritual traditions as Zen, Sufism and Tantra, and various western therapeutic methods are the base of my work. I am trained in: Craniosacral Biodynamic; Primal Therapy and Sexual-de-conditioning, Essence Work and Chakra Balancing, Hara Awareness Massage, Voicing, Awareness Intensive, Satori, Die Before you Die.
My own inner process and the learning of different techniques made me understand that all the methods brings me to myself, when the longing is deep and the search is sincere. This passion I have been sharing through courses and trainings around the world, and those meetings have been a very precious teaching. When human beings come together, with the intention to expand their life and discover their inner reality, magic happens and everyone that is part of it grows.
