What Clients say

Through Cathy's mentorship and advice I went on to win the talent portion of the Miss Virginia scholarship competition two years in a row, and place in the top 15 at Miss America.

“What started as a relationship to prepare and improve my vocal abilities and performances for both the Miss Virginia and Miss America competitions, turned into life long lessons that carry with me today in international advocacy spaces and my work within international foreign policy. The lessons learned of immediate changes in my performances both in singing and public speaking has been something that has completely transformed my confidence in any environment. Through vocal methods, breathing techniques, placement protocol and more than anything the mindset to approach any performance of singing or speaking left me feeling empowered and eager for any challenge thrown my way! Working with Cathy will change your abilities for the better and leave you feeling like a brand new person.

CATHY HELPED MAKE MY DREAM COME TRUE AS “ANNIE” ON BROADWAY

"My first session with Cathy was powerful and a huge awakening, learning what my voice could do. She helped me to be comfortable singing my full range. I cannot express how grateful I am to Cathy for helping to literally find my voice and build my confidence. She guided me through the audition process and I was cast as Duffy and Annie Understudy in the Original Broadway Cast of the 2012 revival of Annie the Musical! Later, I took over the title role of Annie and I belted 8 shows a week with no issues. I know the foundation I learned from Cathy Motley-Fitch helped me do this. I have since gone on to be a part of other Off-Broadway musicals and plays as well as several films and television shows. Do not hesitate to contact Cathy and find your potential! "

CATHY SAW POTENTIAL IN ME, I DIDN’T SEE IN MYSELF.

“Cathy is the type of coach who strengthens each individual client based specifically on what they need. Cathy saw potential in me I didn't see in myself! Flash forward 8 years later and I have my MFA From the Yale School of Drama where I made my Yale Rep debut in Assassins and played the role of Clara in Passion my third year. I have no doubt the successes I've had  started in the studio with Cathy.  She is caring, compassionate, extremely well versed on the voice and now a lifelong friend and mentor!"

CATHY IS AN INVALUABLE TECHNICAL RESOURCE FOR MY CAREER.

“I have known Cathy for over 20 years.  Not only is she a terrifically talented performer and singer, she has become an invaluable technical resource for me throughout my career.  I seek out Cathy's advice first, before "going it on my own"., she ALWAYS has helpful ideas or advice to get me through whatever I may be facing. Cathy has a way of immediately understanding your particular situation, breaking it down, and making the solution easy to understand and perform! I honestly don't know where I would go to get similar professional, yet personal instruction for the countless challenges I face on a daily basis in my profession."

Cathy quickly transformed me to a confident vocalist and performer.

“She found the qualities that made my voice unique and helped me hone them to stand out. She built me a strong technical base so I can use my voice healthily and taught me valuable lessons on acting and emotions within songs. Without her guidance, I would not have made it through the intimidating and overwhelming experience of interviewing and auditioning. Cathy was the mentor and teacher that I needed and led me to be the performer I am today! Cathy remains a role model and coach to me, only a phone call or text away when I need her. Without a doubt, I would recommend Cathy to anyone who is looking to boost their skills and confidence.”

She has a deep knowledge of voice anatomy and can translate those details clearly so you can grow as a singer.

“I’ve been singing in cover bands for many years but never had any sort of voice training. As I got older, I noticed that I would be “gassed” at the end of a show and had a sore throat the next day. I really needed some help with technique and so I started taking lessons with Cathy. After just a few lessons with her I was able to finish my gigs with plenty left in the tank and my power was much improved. People in the audience have started to come up to me and give compliments on my voice--more than ever before. Cathy can watch you sing and quickly give you some very simple and specific guidance on how to do it better. She has a deep knowledge of voice anatomy and can translate those details clearly so you can grow as a singer. Teaming up with Cathy will protect your voice and quickly make you a better singer.”

acceptance into 7 programs from top schools, and we could have never done this without Cathy's help!

"Our family loves Cathy!  My daughter started seeing Cathy several years ago.  She had been singing/performing for several years and her voice was starting to show strain.  We both knew she was not using her body correctly to produce her sound but we didn't know how to fix it.  Cathy not only taught my daughter, but let me sit in on her lessons as well, which helped me to understand what she was doing wrong and how to improve.  I learned so much just listening in!  Cathy was committed to helping my daughter get into college for Vocal Performance.  She was given acceptance into 7 programs from top schools, and we could have never done this without Cathy's help!"

I never could have done it without the transformation in my voice, thanks to Cathy’s expert teaching and kind support

“I had heard about Cathy and in just two lessons she identified areas for improvement that instantly helped my technique. I never felt very confident in my voice. In just a few months, I booked and performed the role of Patsy in Camelot in front of thousands of people. With Cathy’s guidance and coaching, I was cast in more roles. I never could have done it without the transformation in my voice, thanks to Cathy’s expert teaching and kind support. She continues to push me in every lesson; I’m excited for what my future holds!”

Knowing how your voice works is crucial for vocal health and ability, and she truly understands that

“Today, I had my first session with Cathy. I've already seen a change in my voice and feel more in control. When she tells you to do something she also shows you how and why you do it, which is helpful to me as a visual learner. She's super encouraging and creates a safe space for her students to grow. Knowing how your voice works is crucial for vocal health and ability, and she truly understands that. I'm looking forward to many more sessions with Cathy.”

Working with Cathy was one of the highlights of my Miss Virginia experience.
