The CRT training was by far the most significant experience I have had, both as a singer and throughout my vocal-teaching education.

For years, I had hoped that one day I would be able to complete this training. Eventually, the opportunity became available in a format that made it possible for me and my international classmates to undertake and complete the fouryear program.

The training offered deep, highly valuable information that is difficult to find anywhere else. It is also very much centred on embodiment. We don’t only train as teachers; we are expected to experience and embody the tools ourselves before teaching them to others.

The program also offers the possibility of continued education through mentorship, with Soledad Bagnardi designated as my mentor. My students have benefited greatly from the tools I gained through the training, and I have benefited enormously as a singer as well. At present, I am the only teacher of this method in New Zealand. I am also committed to sharing it worldwide through online instruction, so that singers looking for a healthier, deeper approach to vocal training have the opportunity to discover this method.

I would recommend this training to anyone seriously committed to developing their skills as a vocal teacher.
