ALCHEMY OF SOUND — Sound Practitioner Training

Sound Practitioner Training — Yoga Alliance Certified YACEP (30 Hr)

Facilitators: Jonny & Natalija from SOULRAVEL (@soulravel)

DESCRIPTION

What is sound, truly? More than vibration, more than frequency.

Sound is the bridge between the seen and the unseen, a force that shapes matter and moves emotion. When we begin to understand the physics and essence of sound, we start to perceive its profound influence on the body, mind, and spirit. 

The Alchemy of Sound Training is an immersive 4-day journey that weaves together the theory, history, and practical application of sound healing. You’ll explore how sound travels through form and consciousness, how it affects the nervous system, and how ancient and modern practices converge in this timeless art. This training blends scientific understanding with direct experience, allowing you not only to study sound but to feel and embody it.

• Do you feel drawn to explore the language of sound and its effect on body and mind?
• Would you like to learn how to hold space for sound meditations and healing journeys?
• Are you curious to bring instruments into your yoga classes, retreats, or ceremonies?
• Do you want to understand how sound influences the nervous system and emotional balance?
• Or simply wish to experience your own body as an instrument; to listen, feel, and express through sound?

Throughout the training, you’ll work hands-on with a diverse array of instruments. From Himalayan and Crystal bowls to chimes, tuning forks, drums, gongs, flutes and many other instruments. Supported by a comprehensive 90-page manual, you’ll leave not just knowing how sound works, but feeling it, carrying both the theoretical foundations and the embodied wisdom to create sound journeys that are scientifically grounded, spiritually guided, and unmistakably your own.
