Top 30 Sound Yoga Therapy Professional Offerings
This year marks a milestone: 10 years since the first cohort of Heart of Sound teacher trainees gathered to immerse themselves in the transformative practice of nāda yoga and mantra-based healing.
Since then, hundreds of graduates have carried the essence of this lineage-rooted, heart-centered training into the world—into yoga studios, trauma recovery centers, hospitals, cancer wards, classrooms, and homes.
And in this tenth year, our current trainees are showing us just how far the ripple has reached.
As part of their final practicum, each student designs and delivers a real-world offering that integrates everything they’ve learned—not only technique and tradition, but empathy, presence, and skillful holding of space. The result? A stunning spectrum of classes and workshops that raise the bar for what “sound healing” can be.
