Lisa Sailer

affectionately known by students and colleagues as "Ms. Cat-Lisa"
(to distinguish her from her co-teacher, "Ms. Dog Lisa"). As an
Alexander Technique teacher and Paul Rolland-certified string
teacher, Lisa incorporates body awareness and freedom of movement
into her string teaching, and serves on the American String Teachers
Association’s Wellness Committee. When not playing or teaching
music, she can be found training her cats to perform elaborate tricks
such as using an inhaler, playing the organ, and dancing the hokey
pokey.
