Read client reviews of Kait as a teacher.
Kait holds a B.F.A. in Acting from the Actor Training Program at the University of Utah. She received her M.F.A from San Diego State University where she completed her degree in Musical Theatre Performance. While completing her Masters' degree, she was a two-time recipient of the Marion Ross Scholarship for excellence as a performer.
After moving to Los Angeles in 1999, Kait studied voice with world-renowned teacher, Edward Sayegh (studio vocal coach to pop music producer/songwriter, David Foster). Kait received most of her vocal technique from Mr. Sayegh, learning the foundations of voice building. She then went on to train with other Hollywood vocal and performance coaches, broadening her training to include physical awareness through the Alexander Technique, performance coaching, audience interaction, microphone and recording technique and physical liberation through song.
Kait performed and recorded with several professional bands while in the Los Angeles area, including her own blues/rock band, “The Kait Kingston Band,” and performed at such LA venues as The Derby, BB Kings and The Blue Cafe . She also had the opportunity to perform with such great blues artists as John Lee Hooker Jr. (joining John as a featured soloist on part of his U.S. Tour) and Linda Hopkins (Tony Award-winner) in a special cabaret evening through the Cinegrill Spotlight in Hollywood. In addition, she had the pleasure of privately coaching some of her own favorite television stars while in L.A. including John Stamos and Kristy McNichol.
After some consideration, she felt drawn to return to her artistic roots in Salt Lake City to continue both her music and teaching career. In 2004 Kait relocated to Salt Lake City, where she was born and raised. She was first introduced to the world of performing by her mother and father, both professional modern dancers. While in Salt Lake as a child, Kait performed as a featured soloist with both the Children's Dance Theater and the Repertory Dance Theatre (local and international touring company member). While completing her B.F.A. at the University of Utah's Theatre Department, she also worked with the Salt Lake Acting Company, Salt Lake Shakespeare and Plan-B Theater Company. In the summer of 2004, she was invited to return to Salt Lake to headline with her band in the local Brown Bag Concert Series and also at the Sun and Moon Cafe. She was also cast as a featured vocalist in the Ririe Woodbury Dance Company production of "Voices" in the Fall of 2005 and most currently, as the lead vocalist in Children's Dance Theater's production of "True North" in the Spring of 2010.
