Do I need to bring anything to a class or event?
When registering, check the event or class details for suggestions on what to bring. Please bring your own yoga mat for yoga classes. The studio has a few extra mats available in case you're traveling or don't have a yoga mat, and also provides yoga blocks, belts, and blankets. The studio provides mats for sound events.
What happens in a Gong Sound Immersion?
We typically begin with a brief introduction to the gongs and the session. Participants then find a comfortable resting position, usually lying down, but may be seated as well.
Once comfortable, you'll be guided through an exercise to relax the body and mind, and then the gongs will be played for around 60 minutes.
After playing the gongs there will be a few minutes of silence to integrate your experience, followed by a gentle reawakening of the senses. This will conclude the session, however the players are usually available afterwards for any questions or comments.
