ABOUT ME
My method focuses on singing as a full body experience. Breath, movement and body working together to give your voice support and energy.
My name is Catrina Poor, and I am a professional opera singer, who has also worked in musical theatre and jazz. I am also an experienced acting teacher who values the character of music, as well as its sound.
If you want to sing classical repertoire, musical theatre, blues, pop, jazz or rock - whatever you bring to your lessons, we'll unleash your personal interpretation of every song and discover your healthiest and best voice.
Whether you're an experienced singer or an enthusiastic amateur, I'll help you find a natural, active technique that improves your abilities over the long term
and give you fast results that you can hear right away.

WHAT MY CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
Juan Aquillera
Lead Singer of Elephant Planet
I‘ve had singing lessons here for over a year now and the experience has been amazing. I went from not being able to sing at all and having no confidence, to singing very difficult songs and not hesitating to attempt things that seem out of my league. It‘s definitely a skill worth learning, not just because its fun and an incredibly useful skill in music, but it helps immensely with self confidence; not being worried to put your voice out there. I would recommend this to anyone, no matter what age or musical skill level.
Christina Kraweg
Lead Soprano with the London Gilbert & Sullivan
Catrina has been my teeenage son's singing teacher for almost two years. His confidence and skill have grown immensely during this time. Catrina is warm, enthusiastic, talented, and has that special element that makes her a fantastic teacher. I would highly recommend her!
JONATHAN TILLEY
Lead performer with Lyric Theater of San José
"Catrina Poor is an excellent voice teacher:
she helps her students set goals, leads them through the steps of proper vocal form,
and makes the process itself enjoyable.
Personally, she has helped me mature my classical vocal technique and
coached me through a year of auditions and performances.
She is without a doubt one of the finest voice teachers I have worked with."
