  • ICA ClarinetCast: Health and Wellness Committee: An Interview with Cindy Bartz

    This episode of ICA Health and Wellness Committee's ClarinetCast features Cindy Bartz.

    Cindy began playing the clarinet in 1968 and earned a Music Degree at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point School of Music in 1983.
    Her yoga journey started in 2004 to heal her body from a biking accident. After years of 0practicing yoga and playing the clarinet, Cindy realized yoga not only healed her body but also made her a stronger clarinet player.
    Yoga breath techniques increased her lung capacity and gave her better breath control. Her performance anxiety became less of an issue, and her yoga practice helped her as a musician to stay focused. Cindy discovered that specific yoga poses released tension, created better posture, agility, and finger dexterity.
    Cindy performs frequently at yoga studios as well as assisted living facilities combining lyrical Clarinet music with yoga poses to heal the mind, body and spirit. She is also a member of several music groups within the Tampa Bay area.
