Sound is considered to be one of the oldest modalities of healing. Taking a shamanic perspective that is rooted beyond culture, and dreaming in a new culture that sees our bodies as interconnected and woven with all of life. Courting the altered state through sound and music we allow ourselves to be open to understandings that reality is very much indeed a subjective experience. And in these altered states we may receive insight and understanding that can aid in healing, release, grow and open our hearts.

This 3-day intensive training will explore the power of sound to move and transform energy as you move through direct experience of attuning to sound vibration and practical techniques in application. This workshop is HANDS-ON, VOICES-ON, EARS-ON!
