Body-Works: Brenda Reid
21 Years of Cantaré Children's Choir would not have been possible without the unending contributions of Cantaré legend Brenda Reid. After her daughter Kathryn graduated from the program, Mrs. Reid stayed close to the Cantaré family to continue to motivate, guide, and nurture future generations of choristers. Along with assisting with nearly every rehearsal, concert, and tour since the choir's inception. Mrs. Reid represents the beating heart of the spirit of Cantaré showering our choristers with her kindness and wisdom.
A yoga teacher in Calgary for over ten years, Brenda is the founder and program director of Adagio Yoga which has been a longtime partner of Cantare Children's Choir. Body-Works classes give our students the opportunity to tune into their foundation and maintain their musical instruments - their physical bodies. She is passionate about building foundations for breath, postural alignment and movement for our singers which greatly improves their ability to harness their musical sound in both rehearsal and concert.
