The three days
What actually happens in the room
Eight instrument families over three days — but the point isn't the list. By Sunday afternoon you will have given a full session and received one.
Core healing techniques, then Himalayan and crystal singing bowls. You play all of them before the day ends.
Weighted and unweighted forks, gong technique, rhythm, and voice work for health and wellness. Safety and contraindications throughout.
Everything brought together: sequencing, reading the room, closing safely. You lead one, and you receive one.
All instruments provided — bring a blanket and something to write with. Natalie sends her list of nearby places to stay as soon as your deposit is in.
Your teacher
Natalie Brown
The Academy's Lead Teacher for North America. She trains practitioners in our Integral Sound Healing method and hosts a number-one-ranked podcast with leading voices in sound, medicine and wellness.
"If you go certified, the extra fee isn't a certificate — it buys my hours. I mark your work and take your coaching calls myself, once the room has emptied."

The only decision
Do you want someone with you
after the three days?
Both are the same three days in the same room with Natalie. The difference is what happens once you go home.
For yourself, or to find out whether this is for you. Complete as it is.
For when you want someone with you afterwards — three months of Natalie's time, her marking, and the full online course included.
Early bird · full price $829 after 23 Aug
The balance goes to Natalie directly because she pays for the venue and her own hours — you'll get the options by email straight away, and she'll be in touch personally. Deposits are non-refundable; 14 places only.
From Natalie's past rooms
"Natalie's knowledge and organisation made three days feel unhurried. I left able to hold a session on my own."

"The marking and the one-to-one after — that answered the certified doubt for me."

Anything left
Do I need to bring instruments?
I've just started looking into sound healing — is this too advanced?
What's the travel and accommodation situation?
What if something comes up and I can't attend?
