I’m a local vocal coach and Feldenkrais® practitioner, and I’m running an online Voice & Body workshop on Saturday 30th August at 10:30 am.
It’s a 90-minute session where we’ll gently explore the body–breath–voice connection. In this opportunity, we will focus on the connection between the pelvis and the voice... that's where true and effortless power comes from!
The aim is to help singers (whether you’re in a choir, sing casually, or just enjoy using your voice) feel more ease, resonance, and freedom when singing.
🕒 90 minutes – with a recording if you can’t attend live
💰 $37 early bird until Aug 20 ($47 after)
📍 Online (so you can join from anywhere)

Would love to have some friendly local faces join in! 💜
Warmly,
Jorgelina

A scary word that can make people uneasy—and for good reason. According to The Post, more than a third of New Zealand’s public services have recently faced it.
But why is restructuring the go-to strategy for driving change?
In The Post’s article 'Reaching for change: Is our public service obsessed with restructuring?', doctoral candidate Annika Naschitzki from Victoria University is trying to understand repetitive restructuring.
New Zealand’s public service is often seen as risk-averse, slow-moving, and stuck. But interviewed staff indicate that they want change, that change is needed ... just not through restructuring.
Naschitzki doesn’t mince words: “We always have the same issues, but we keep trying to fix the same problem with the same hammer we've been using for decades.”
Are we leaning too heavily on structural change when real transformation might lie elsewhere? Perhaps through training, resourcing, tools, and practice, as Naschitzki suggests.
What do you think?
Is restructuring the right tool for meaningful change, or just a habit we can’t seem to break?
If you are wary of restructuring, how can we do better?
