Katie Down and I are again offering our foundational sound immersion, which gives participants a thorough introduction to the therapeutic use of sound. Weaving together theory, history, and experiential learning, we invite students to explore the voice and different resonant drone instruments for the purpose of healing, connection, and personal transformation.
Students will gain 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 will 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 will also have the opportunity to use traditional sound healing instruments, such as Himalayan singing bowls, crystal singing bowls, monochords, hand pans, tuning forks, shruti boxes, and more.
Maha Rose Sound School Level 1 is open to clinicians, healing arts practitioners, teachers, musicians, bodyworkers, and anyone curious about the power of sound and deep listening to understand and connect with sound as a tool for healing - not only in the context of clinical practice but for creating a personal sound practice in our daily lives.
Monday Sound Lab
In this optional, additional full day of supervised hands-on clinic, students will have the opportunity to integrate the tools and learning from the weekend. Through demo's, dyad and group practice, feedback, and discussion groups, we'll refine skills, and experience the nuances of one-on-one session work. This day is highly recommended for those who wish to bring sound work into their established therapeutic practices, or are looking to offer individual sound sessions.
Level 2 will be offered in June, 2020. Stay tuned for more info!
