KTS Webinar #52 A Free Intro to Knight-Thompson Speechwork: a skills based approach to speech and accent training.
On Saturday August 24th, 11am PDT/ 2pm EDT/ 7pm BST
Join us, 2024 webinar co-curators, Jenny and Charlotte, as we jump into some of the fundamentals of Knight-Thompson Speechwork. We’ll introduce you to the KTS “Principles (perhaps)” and then embark on some exploration and play: making faces, making sounds, getting to know our vocal tracts and articulators. Whether you’re brand new to KTS or want to pop in for a refresher, we’d love to see you there.
