Chaia has been studying voice for over 25 years, performing both with a jazz quintet, and songleading with her guitar.  She has studied with opera singers from the New York City Opera and learned a variety of techniques from international workshops and local jazz clinics.  Specific techniques of breathing and sound production are drawn from resources such as Reichian therapy and Alexander Technique.  Chaia has been coaching singers and non-singers for 15 years to free their natural voice and experience the joy of releasing the song inside.
