SOUND MEDITATION EDUCATION
Working with sound meditation for the last 6 years has been a profoundly humbling and enchanting experience. My sonic education started a long time ago as a professional musical theatre performer and the study of sound + music in a theatrical setting. Since then my path has shifted, and I work now as a
full-time sound practitioner having studied sound medicine (and continuing to, forever!) with teachers throughout
North America as well as India (Svaram, Auroville). Much like the lineage of Yoga, sound therapeutics are a life long journey of study and play, with more and more research being made available every day on its magic and benefits.
I now offer immersions + modules in Sound Meditation through an intensive weekend (see Sound/Work), workshops, and many yoga teacher training programmes throughout Ontario. It is vital, as sound becomes more mainstream, to be educated on the gross and subtle aspects of sound medicine and to have a solid foundation to work with vibration for you and your community. My educational offerings are immersive, thorough and will give you a sweet base to discover how to use sound in a therapeutic, creative and meditative way!

" To enter into the initiation of sound, of vibration and mindfulness, is to take a giant step toward consciously knowing the soul. There are hundreds of accurate models for this great journey inward. Each requires belief and discipline as well as the will to allow the inner and outer worlds to relate. Listening, learning, study, and practice are important tools. But we need the courage to enter into ourselves with the great respect and mystery that combines the faith of a child, the abandon of a mystic, and the true wisdom of an old shaman."
