Katie Down and I are back with our foundational sound healing training at our home away from home, Maha Rose in Brooklyn. This weekend immersion always draws a diverse crowd, ranging from teachers, therapists, healers, musicians, sound engineers, and those simply curious about exploring the world of sound for their own personal practice. All are welcome! This (leap) year, we are also adding an optional Sound Lab on Monday, in which students can integrate their tools and learning from the weekend, refine their skills, and practice techniques together.

Sound School is designed to provide students with tools and inspiration to create their own personal sound practice while employing ethics guidelines and best practices for using sound in a variety of healing modalities. We explore the history, science, and cultural relevance of sound in healing traditions, and expand our capacity for deep listening in meditation and clinical applications. Students have the opportunity to work with traditional sound healing instruments, such as Himalayan singing bowls, crystal bowls, monochords, hand pans, tuning forks, shruti boxes, and more.

Sound is the primal force, literally the seed of creation. When we learn to work with, explore, and harness the power of vibration, we empower ourselves with tools for our own wellbeing and for the good of others. We become ‘sound’ in mind and body, finely tuned instruments resonating in harmony with our environment and with all beings.

In this weekend workshop, we will deep dive into the power of sound as healing modality, weaving together theory and history with hands-on experiential learning. We will begin by activating our capacities for deep listening, cultivating a heightened awareness of our inner and outer sonic landscapes. The sacred art of listening opens a portal to our highest selves, and to our innate capacity for self- healing. We’ll connect with our first instrument, the voice, as a tool for transformation, manifestation and awakening our intuition, experience sound as energy, and learn how to play traditional sound healing instruments, such as Himalayan and crystal bowls, shruti box, tuning forks, and more. Among the topics explored will be resonance, cymatics, entrainment, the therapeutics of rhythm and drone, vocal toning, and the anatomy of a sound bath. Participants will leave the training with inspiration and tools to create their own personal sound practice, and where applicable, to use sound within their own healing work. Teachers, bodyworkers, yoga instructors, musicians, therapists, healers, and absolutely anyone curious about the power of sound and deep listening are welcome. No musical experience necessary.

The weekend will end with a sound experience by Sacred Sound Ritual - me, Eva Geisler and Sean Hoots - from 7-9pm. This is optional but highly recommended!

I’ll be offering sound for the final practice and a lecture on working with sound as a complement to Restorative Yoga in my dear friend Abby Paloma’s Restorative Yoga Teacher Training this Fall. 

Restorative Yoga offers therapeutic tools to balance the nervous system in order to truly rest and replenish energy.  States of deep mind and body relaxation are made more accessible through the architecture of restorative poses. Health benefits of a consistent restorative practice include lowered blood pressure and blood sugar levels, reduced insomnia, balanced menstruation, improved digestion, and increased fertility.

This training is open to yoga teachers, health practitioners, and dedicated students. After this training you will be able to skillfully offer your students and private clients a potent and medicinal practice of rest. You will be equipped with knowledge of how to incorporate restorative poses into your own practice and your regular asana classes. When people partake in this peaceful practice, the whole world stands to benefit.

Katie Down and I have been dreaming up this deep sound immersion for a few years now. Open to sound practitioners who have either completed our Sound School Level 1, or who have previous training in sound in the healing arts, it will be offered in retreat style to create a truly immersive experience. This in-depth training will expand practitioners’ connection to sound in therapeutic modalities, covering basic music theory, history, practicum training, ethics and best practices.

Among the topics explored will be intuitive voice work, mantra and the energetics of sound, aesthetics of sound baths, instrument techniques, Mindfulness, and Deep Listening. Several guest teachers (details to be announced very soon) will offer sessions on tuning forks, gong, and basic anatomy for sound practitioners.

Set in the beautiful Hudson Valley, there will also be time for participants to pause and tune into the frequency of nature, hike, swim in a nearby lake, and enjoy delicious vegetarian meals. There will be daily movement and meditation practice to open body and mind for learning, and evening sound experiences to enhance integration. Students will also have the opportunity to practice individual hands-on work, and receive feedback from the facilitators throughout the retreat. We hope you can join us for this transformative five days at Maha Rose North.
