FITZMAURICE VOICE INSTITUTE - LOOKING AHEAD INTO 2026

As we step into 2026, the Fitzmaurice Voice Institute enters a new phase of growth, reflection, and forward movement. With the publication of Fitzmaurice Voicework: Embodying the Holistic Voice by Catherine Fitzmaurice and Michael Morgan, an important milestone has been reached. This moment calls forward a renewed commitment to stewardship — preserving the lineage of the work while expanding access for future generations of practitioners, artists, educators, and scholars. In the years ahead, a central focus of the Institute will be the development of the Fitzmaurice Voicework archives, alongside the expansion of research partnerships that support embodied practice, scholarship, and global exchange. As part of this forward movement, the Institute is also creating new ways to share the work beyond the studio and classroom — through dialogue, storytelling, and collective reflection.

Voice Is an Action: The Fitzmaurice Voicework® Podcast

We are excited to be in the development of a new podcast, Voice Is an Action: The Fitzmaurice Voicework® Podcast. This podcast explores voice as a whole-body, relational, and meaning-making practice through dialogue with artists, teachers, scholars, and practitioners working across performance, somatic practice, education, and health. Season One centers on the theme Breathing Is Meaning, inviting listeners to experience breath as a bioenergetic process — a living movement of impulse, rhythm, relationship, presence, and action in the world.

Micha Espinosa
