‘IMMERSION’ | Sound Energy Practitioner
Three-day Sound Healer Intensive | in-person |
Training that feels healing
You’ll learn directly from, a globally recognised sound energy practitioner and teacher with over a decade of lived experience, & thousands of hours of hands-on practice,
This deep immersion isn’t like other training paths.
Yes, it’s a fast track — but that doesn’t mean it skimps on content or compromises the integrity of the work. Every element is taught with respect for sound therapy as a responsible healing modality, underpinned by ethical, trauma-informed, and science-backed practices.
‘IMMERSION’ = ‘deep focused alignment’
If you’re someone who learns best through creativity, connection, and inspired action — and condensed into an intensive burst of learning - then this is exactly what you’ve been looking for.

Confidence | Clarity, & Creativity
Learning is a lived experience—something you feel in your hands, in your body, in the space between the sounds.
With GAJÃRA IMMERSION In-person training
You’ll be guided through three carefully crafted days that honour both the science and the soul of sound healing.
Gain the core skills through full, embodied immersion — then embed and refine them with hands on practice - singing bowls, percussion, drum, tuning forks, crystal bowls
The course is spread over three consecutive days - with guidance for responsible case studies and real-world practice once you graduate.
In a year’s time, you won’t just remember what you learned — you’ll have honed it in the field, becoming a more confident, skilled, and adaptable practitioner.
Quality workbook (don’t worry there’s not loads of note-taking and written stuff to be submitted - that’s what the beautifully crafted workbook is for).
A certificate of completion accepted by insurers for your practice. * see notes below on sonic massage.
Imagine a life where you spend your days helping others heal with sound—starting with yourself.
(And yes, building a sustainable business with integrity and living your soul’s purpose)
You don’t have to wait for the perfect moment or the perfect location to begin your sound awakening.
’IMMERSION’ gives you the skills, tools, and confidence to bring sound healing into your life and work—whatever stage you’re at.
Whether you’re starting fresh or expanding your existing practice, sound has a way of opening doors. To deeper presence. To clearer purpose. To a quieter kind of success.
One rooted in resonance & fulfilment - this is what you’re here to do!

"I now hold at least 4 sound baths a week and my students love it!"
as a yoga teacher I always brought the odd singing bowl into my lessons to aid the relaxation, however doing the sound bowl orchestration course was a complete game changer.
I learnt so much from the course and Ali taught in a way that was easy to understand and digest and her story is very inspiring. I now hold at least 4 sound baths a week and my students love it!
I went on to do the vibro acoustic massage course which was incredible and fascinating to dive deeper into the knowledge of sound therapy. I am now also doing multiple treatments a week and it's has really helped further my career and hold space for my students. Thank you .

"Ali provides the science to validate the use of sound therapy for healing"
This course has been monumental in my sound therapy educational journey. I had previously taken an online course for basics; however, I found Ali's course provided me with fundamentals I was lacking - it was also approachable, comprehensive and fun training.
What I loved most was the amount of research that went into the learning modules. Each section provided more information, not a regurgitation of vague information. (like my other online course) Ali provides the science to validate the use of sound therapy for healing.
The handouts given to students are invaluable and I reference them frequently as I am preparing sound bath plans.

"Ali, apologies for my gushing feedback, In short, the course was exactly what I was looking for"
“I’m still on a wonderful high from the training days, to say I loved it is an understatement! I cannot thank you enough for sharing your wisdom with us. You possess not only a true talent and affinity with bowls and sound but the gift of being able to teach it to others in such a way that it all makes perfect sense! I learnt so much and came away with so much knowledge, as well as a beautiful and comprehensive handbook. Fantastic value for money. I also appreciate your knowledge of the bowls and the reassurance of you knowing exactly where they come from.
Ali, apologies for my gushing feedback above. In short, the course was exactly what I was looking for!

“ I just wanted to let you know how amazing the bowls have been already for me. I’ve suffered with ME/CFS for the last six years. The day after the vibroacoustic massage my HRV went from low 20’s/30 to 42 - which is amazing! I’ve since been playing the bowls I bought from you, every day. When I woke up today my HRV was at 50! Its never been that high! I’m a full convert now and feel so lucky to have met you.”

Item description
Section Styles ratio-horizontal_4
And I know what its like to need healing, In 2019 I was stuck in a grief cycle and not able to cope with just living life
In 2019, I found myself completely depleted — caught in a cycle of grief, unable to process what life was asking of me. I was showing up for my family, for work, for everything — but inside, I wasn’t coping. I felt numb, disconnected, and stretched beyond my emotional capacity. I wasn’t sleeping properly. I couldn’t find stillness. My body held the weight of it all.
The bowls didn’t heal me overnight. But they helped me rebuild from the inside — gently and gradually, through sound.”
Without realising it, I began to use sound to bring myself back to life — not as a performance, but as a quiet daily practice. I learned which tones helped me settle, which rhythms helped me release. I noticed how low frequencies would calm my breath, how transitions and silence gave space for emotions I hadn’t let myself feel.
Every aspect of this course has been designed from that place of lived experience. The techniques I teach are the same ones I used to regulate my nervous system, move through trauma, and reconnect with joy.
Whether you’re holding space for others or walking your own healing path — or both — this training offers more than skills. It’s a way to return to yourself.
