She goes slow, shows you different angles, breaks down the movements. She took the time to go around to everyone individually and break down how to improve. This was such a positive experience and not at all intimidating. Even the other people taking the class are friendly and supportive. If you're on the fence, GO!

I did a 6-session Access Bars series with Fiona and it was healing and soothing. Fiona has amazing…read moregentle and authentic energy and was so caring, insightful and kind. She worked with me to explore and find peace with two relatives that were difficult for me, who had passed away. I came to an understanding of them and was able to let go of all my complicated feelings and now I just feel love and empathy. It is so freeing. We also worked through some of the collective trauma such as fires and the pandemic. Fiona taught me practices that I use daily to reduce stress and anxiety and manage my energy in relation to other people and outside events. The practices are particularly helpful as I'm trying to fall asleep at night. I highly recommend her.

I'm nine sessions into bellydancing with Fiona, and I'm completely enamored. It's hard work without…read morebeing strenuous, and she is always conscientious of how the movements might affect those with injuries or weaknesses. I sought out classes which would get me moving while allowing me to explore a new dance style. Fiona's way of mixing traditional bellydance movement with cardio workouts allows us as students to build up the skill and knowledge quickly. Her classes don't include mirrors, so we can learn the Tribal method of following a leader, with the added benefit of not having to worry how we look doing so. I'm still getting used to this particular aspect, as it is wildly different from my background dancing in mirrored studios, but it's challenging in a new way, which I'm thoroughly enjoying.

He talks from real experience and has always offered support and help, and never judgement. His style of intelligent solutions offered, mixed with poetry and human understanding, have been both valuable and soothing to me. I recommend Kermit based on my personal experience of him, and also from the feedback from friends I've referred.

After a couple of years of floundering in professional and personal "burnout", I started working…read morewith Kermit doing weekly coaching sessions by phone/zoom. Through his insightful, gentle, and persistent coaching over a year of work I have developed many new tools and insights for experiencing wholeness, healing, and aliveness. The work has been transformative and the results in my life have been profound. I've had many experiences with mental health counseling and professional coaching, and I've found Kermit's approach to be uniquely well-suited to help me see, relate to, and integrate different parts of myself into a more whole and complete experience of life. I continue to work with him on an ongoing basis as a trusted advisor and friend on my journey.

We feel so lucky to have Chelsea teaching our daughter! A lovely personality and mentor, a highly skilled dancer and choreographer, a patient and kind Director. The Music Director Kevin warmly and patiently builds the student's musical understanding and performances. His contribution keeps musical standards high and performances enjoyable. The Business Director/Producer Rachel adds the no nonsense behind the scenes taking care of business ballast for all this creativity. We are grateful for her expertise to keep SingOut thriving. My daughter is attending a performing arts school in the fall. We will still be attending Tue/Thurs Musical Theater at SingOut. It is top notch and she loves it!
