What is Somatic Singing?

Somatic Singing is a unique voice modality founded by singer and vocal wellness coach Justine Lucas. This modality was specifically designed to help you release energetic blocks and free your voice using the chakra system. Justine's method of teaching combines ancient wisdom from Eastern healing arts, passed down to her by her grandmother (a polarity energy work specialist) and her own stage performance techniques from two decades of shows as a touring artist and headliner. Somatic Singing explores the intersection between energy and the voice. Justine has performed at world-renown venues, and many of her voice students have gone on to manifest their dream careers in singing, performing and public speaking.

Connecting with Your Voice

Justine Lucas discovered and developed Somatic Singing as a holistic voice modality to help those experiencing energetic blocks in the throat chakra. Somatic singing is one of the few modalities that work as a perfect mirror system: using the voice to help you heal and using healing to help the voice. 

Have you ever experienced any of the following?

  • it sometimes feels like you have a block in your throat
  • it feels like you're about to cry every time you try to sing
  • you feel a tenderness in your heart when you try to sing
  • you feel like something in your gut is preventing you from singing, or even speaking your mind

A Personal Note from Justine

"I used to be a traditional vocal coach, teaching at private and public music schools in Santa Cruz and Marin County. But over the years, I observed that the traditional style of teaching, which is based on music theory and technique alone, does not work for those who are experiencing energetic blocks around singing. Which, as it turns out, is most people!  There is a high probability that what's holding your natural voice back from shining through is actually some form of stage fright, even when you sing alone. Anxiety, fear, self-doubt... these things are not technical. They're spiritual."

Zoe Yungmi Blank (she/they)

Singer-Songwriter & Content Creator

"I've been utilizing Justine's vocal technique in my own singing for over a decade. Justine's Somatic Singing approach with body awareness, lifestyle shifts, and deep meditation has improved my life in shocking ways. I am so much more mentally prepared for shows, interviews, work, and life. Since I started taking regular weekly online classes with Justine, my goals seem to come to fruition more often and in bigger ways than I had even hoped. I look forward to my somatic singing class every week." 
Scenario Silver (they/them)

Stage Hypnotist & Theater Performer

"I jumped for joy and cried with relief when I discovered Justine could teach singing in this way. I've held so much fear in when it comes to opening up my voice, and I knew that studying pure technique wouldn't be enough. I needed spirit level work. Justine creates such a warm supportive environment, perfect for exploring where energy flows through body and spirit. I am so grateful to have finally found a teacher who can help me open up my voice as an expression of my soul."
Lee Corbie-Wells (she/her)

Singer, Composer & Performer

"Justine Lucas really helped me break down mental barriers I had about songwriting. Her guided meditations and visualizations helped me tap into vivid imagery, allowing my thoughts to flow naturally, uncovering authentic expressions through freewriting. Somatic Songwriting has really enhanced the musicality of my lyrics and added variety to my style.  Justine's lessons have equipped me with invaluable techniques and insights that have profoundly improved my songwriting and given me confidence!"
