About Sami
Sami Fitz is a British-American musician and sound meditation practitioner based in London. She studied Naad Yoga in 2019 with Leo Cosendai and holds a 200-HR certificate with the Yoga Alliance. Her work encompasses using gongs, singing bowls, intuitive voice, and small percussion to relax the body and help center the mind. Prior to becoming a sound meditation teacher, Sami worked in the corporate world at MTV, Viacom, and Salesforce; as well as an independent musician. This combination of previous experience allows for a unique perspective on how to enhance creativity, promote teamwork, and create balance in our busy lives.
Sami continues to record ambient pop music and holds sound meditation workshops around London - previous sessions have been held at East of Eden, Battersea Yoga, Hotpod Yoga, and the Natural History Museum. She's had the privilege to perform/record with Leo Abrahams, Widt, Damien Rice, Sarah Davachi, Seb Rochford, Black Square, Teletextile, Gloria Gaynor, and Annea Lockwood. Her solo work includes creating unusual soundscapes and ethereal spaces using primarily her voice and synthesizers. She loves experimental music but equally loves an 80s pop song. Her debut LP will be released soon.
Her previous work was featured at Pukklepop, chosen as a Vimeo Staff Pick, won the 2020 Swedenborg Public Vote Winner and A Closer Listen's Best Video of 2018. She's also been interviewed for articles in The Guardian and The Wire. In her spare time, she ran the Cafe OTO Experimental choir focusing on the works of Deep Listening from Pauline Oliveros and she occasionally works with the charity Headway enabling vocal improvisation for people with head injuries. Sami also had a monthly radio show called Good Night with Ceylan Göksel and Sami Fitz on Resonance Extra and has been featured on Worldwide FM, as well as a guest mix with Rob da Bank.
Her approach to sound is to create an accessible route to meditation for all and her goal is to create space for people to explore, grow, and connect with their inner worlds through unique soundscapes. She recently trained with Sarah Lo to become a yin practitioner and mindfulness coach and studied with Laraaji to explore Laughter Meditation.
Her sound baths and music are unique and take the participant on a journey that explores and unleashes the unconscious and subconscious mind.
