Cristi teaches at Berklee College of Music, New England Conservatory and Merrimack College. She offers workshops nationally and internationally.
Visit kinestheticsinger.com for details on her book and methodology: The Kinesthetic Singer: lessons on singing from yoga and basketball. As a teacher, Catt takes a kinesthetic approach, combining singing with imagery and physical work based on yoga to open the voice, ground the breath, and improve body alignment. (See Cristi's Singers Yoga Series under Yoga/Wellness.) She works with singers, instrumentalists and composers of diverse interests and backgrounds who want to learn more about singing. She enjoys helping singers find their unique musical path and to find repertoire that truly suits their voice, their personality and their passion.
