"I learned to believe in my voice and its capacity and how to expand myself through it. Our in-presence retreat was so important to me, to see each other, acknowledge one another, feel us and open our hearts and embrace as we showed our vulnerability. To sing and play our instruments together was powerful and magical, and to see the essence and potency of each person as we felt ourselves in community.
I loved it! I want to come back!"
“My intention is to continue applying what I’ve learned in my everyday life—exploring instruments, singing, and sharing sound baths. I’m excited to offer individual and group sound sessions, incorporating singing bowls into the women’s circles and ceremonies I lead. This program has supported me through incredibly difficult times. The music, the sacred fire, and the sense of community have pulled me out of deep challenges. I am so grateful to feel
so supported.
“In ceremonies and circles with cacao and my friend Pam and I hold, we have already started to integrate practices learned in this course, such as sound baths and using the seed syllables in voice activation. I will continue to integrate all the teachings in my own practice, and at the same time I intend to start sharing more, offering service and offering also one-on-one sessions, for which there are a lot of teachings in this course. Thank you so much for offering this beautiful course, it has given me so much!”
“Being part of this school has completely transformed my life. I’ve felt supported by the Universe and by Sound, and I’ve learned to implement these tools into my daily life—especially during intense or chaotic moments—helping me return to peace. It has awakened a desire to live more fully, to learn more, and to practice and apply these teachings in service to others, something I felt was missing in my daily routine.”
“Thank you to all my teachers, ancestors, and guides who have accompanied me on this journey of becoming a sound therapist and resilient human. You have planted a seed in my heart and my voice.”
“My immense gratitude for the opportunity to be part of this beautiful cosmic family. Thank you for helping me reconnect with my lineage and my guides, for guiding me to rebuild confidence in myself and in what I have to offer. These teachings go beyond sound alchemy—they are life alchemy. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Aho!”

“My intention is to continue what I have learned in my every-day life. Exploring instruments and singing. I have so much excitement to share individual and group sound baths and song and singing bowls in the women’s circle that I have and ceremonies that I offer. I have felt that the program has held me in very difficult moments in my life. The music and sacred Fire has gotten me out of deep holes at times, as well as the feeling of being sustained by the community”.
