I'm Cally - a yoga and singing teacher based in Hale, Altrincham, and someone who has spent the last twenty years exploring the relationship between breath, body and voice.

I grew up in Chester and studied classical singing at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, graduating with a first-class degree and winning the Chris Petty English Song Prize. I went on to complete my Masters at the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague, performing with companies including the Dutch Radio Choir, Dutch National Opera, The Grange Festival and Brighton Early Music Festival.

But alongside the performing, something else was quietly taking shape. I had experienced significant performance anxiety throughout my training, and began exploring yoga and breathwork as a way to manage the physical and mental demands of singing. What started as a coping strategy became a genuine passion - and eventually, a second vocation.

Over the last eight years I have immersed myself in yoga, practising intensively across a wide range of dynamic styles and completing over 450 hours of teacher training. In my final year in London I taught up to ten classes a week as well as workshops across multiple studios including many MoreYoga venues. My devoted personal practice, as well as everything I’ve learnt from some of the best teachers out there, shapes everything about how I teach.

I moved back to the Northwest (Hale, Altrincham) with my husband and daughter, and I now work with private yoga students and singing students across the local area. What connects both sides of my teaching is the same thing that connected them for me personally: breath. When the breath is free, the body can move with ease and strength. When the body is grounded and relaxed, the voice can do what it naturally wants to. I teach both disciplines with that understanding at the centre of everything.

I'm a lifelong learner and continue to deepen my practice - remaining grateful to the many teachers who have shaped my journey along the way.
