YOGA VOICE WORK:
Cristi combines her love of singing and yoga in a series of classes and workshops that explore movement and sound. Cristi offers classes for singers who wish to strengthen and develop their voices through yoga, and yoga practitioners who wish to develop their singing voice. In the late 1990s she began attending yoga classes taught by her good friend, Brad Crews. Eventually Cristi and Brad began trading voice lessons for yoga lessons and at some point, two hours of trades became long afternoons exploring singing and yoga. The pair offered Yoga Voice workshops together and when Brad moved to Russia, Cristi continued to develop connections between yoga and singing that are now cornerstones of her teaching including private lessons, small ensembles, classes, workshops and master classes. She now offers a series of breathing and relaxation exercises paired with flowing yoga and energized physical singing, that allows participants to sing with their whole body and understand how directed energy and breath combine to create sound. Cristi has presented Yoga Voice workshops at several colleges and as daily warm ups for extended vocal workshop/master class series.
Cristi has attended workshops with Doug Keller, Beryl Birch Bender, Marsha Danzig and at the Sivananda Yoga Centers in Montreal, New York and the Bahamas. She completed the 200 hour teacher training program at Back Bay Yoga in Boston where guest faculty include Barbara Benagh and Leslie Kaminoff.
