VINX Virtual Workshop Series

We are so excited to present VINX's online Creativity Workshop Series - please spread the word among your friends who may be interested to learn more about it!  We've set up an amazing program that will run monthly - read on to learn all about it....

We begin new sessions on the first Sunday of every month and you can register in advance at any time, just tell us what month(s) you wish to join - Sign up now as space is limited!!!   (scroll to bottom of page for the registration link...)

 

"We are living in a very challenging, socially isolating time. One of the most important activities for creative thinking is the sharing of resources and mentorship. Together we can conquer any obstacle or nemesis. Our goal is to enhance and respectfully sustain the craft of songwriting and creativity in general.  The path to your creative spark is the same whether you are a world class musician or a world class architect.

To do this we need more than musical talent. We need to join with the great minds of organizers and technical builders to help fill in. Those of us who lean to the left with our creative dream brain need a little balance from our right brain brothers and sisters. What i am saying is that everyone has a place in this endeavor.  PLEASE join us and help us grow!" - VINX

 

Monthly Goal

We are building our library of triggers to give you access to your creative spark.  Every Sunday VINX will present a new exercise for the week to help you access your creative spark.   

These exercises provide keys to the doors and walls that we all create around our most intimate self ... the freedom to open these doors and restock your library and your pantry is where your power lies!  My personal goal is to give you permission to give yourself permission to be amazing!

See more details below ...

All sessions will be recorded if you miss one of the Sunday sessions

Each participant gets one private session with VINX, once per month

 

This workshop series will be using exercises developed by VINX during his years of teaching at the Berklee College of Music in Boston and running his own immersive weekend workshops called the Songwriter Soul Kitchen,

The Artist Within

and the VINX Vocal Summit.

“If you have not as an individual songwriter or a group met with Vinx on your song DO IT! There is one thing I have learned through experience: if you care about your craft and want to nurture it to the best of your ability and have the opportunity to have someone who is a MASTER, like Vinx, look at your work, you save yourself time, aggravation and probably money in the long run.” - Heather Kim Rodriguez (Hedda Kim) - Las Vegas USA
