I have been blessed with the opportunity to study intensively with Rhiannon beginning in 2006. In 2008 I became part of the first <em>All the Way In<\/em>, a year-long training in the powerful body-based vocal improvisation and sound healing process that Rhiannon has developed in her 30+ years of teaching. In 2012 I was honored to be chosen as a Co-Pilot (assistant teacher\/mentee) for All the Way In, and I continue to study with Rhiannon and use her pedagogy in all my teaching. I know that everything in my life, from my teaching and performing to my daily living has been affected and expanded from my association with this marvelous, powerful teacher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/elisewitt.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/ATWI-group-photo-by-Janne-Watson.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"857\" src=\"http:\/\/elisewitt.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/ATWI-group-photo-by-Janne-Watson.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elisewitt.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/ATWI-group-photo-by-Janne-Watson.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/elisewitt.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/ATWI-group-photo-by-Janne-Watson-655x439.jpg 655w, https:\/\/elisewitt.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/ATWI-group-photo-by-Janne-Watson-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/elisewitt.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/ATWI-group-photo-by-Janne-Watson-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/elisewitt.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/ATWI-group-photo-by-Janne-Watson-1024x686.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/elisewitt.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/ATWI-group-photo-by-Janne-Watson-600x402.jpg 600w, https:\/\/elisewitt.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/ATWI-group-photo-by-Janne-Watson-1080x723.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.RhiannonMusic.com\">Rhiannon<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From her stellar collaborations with the all-women\u2019s jazz ensemble Alive! to the a cappella ensemble SoVoSo\u2019 to <a href=\"www.BobbyMcFerrin.com\">Bobby McFerrin<\/a> and Voicestra, Rhiannon has paved a unique path as an independent artist.
