Jan 11th and Jan 18th are the perfect places for Gong Enthusiasts to learn the fundamentals of Gongs, Mallets, and Stands in making a wise investment in finding the right gong for you.
I have a variety of gongs in which you will play, including the newest selection of Bronze Gongs from Western Nepal.
These Gongs are very unique and made from the same family, with all similar alloys and markings on the back side of these Gongs. Collectors, please keep in mind.
This program has also been updated to help people learn how to manage the stress and overthinking of daily life as they become part of their own inner healing. Let the gongs help you as there is nothing like this work on a deeper level, as you will become one with the gong.
Instruments are provided from the collection.
You can bring in your own if you're looking for a companion for your gong, if you want. I have plenty of stands to set you up.
This program is for those who wish to learn and/or improve their technique with the very complex instrument known as the steel drum, or "Gong”. This intense and unique gong training is designed for the beginner, but it is also beneficial for those with long experience as we will be going very deep into the basics, the foundation of gong playing.

You will learn:
Basics about the gong instrument itself
The variety of mallets and how to use them
The different stands available for your use
Basic droning techniques followed by different mallet techniques from that basic principle
How sound works and how it moves around the room
How to set up and perform your own meditations
How to listen more deeply
As a bonus, you are also receiving a variety of sound healing benefits simply by being in our space with the gongs while they are being played. Included some additional information regarding these benefits, specifically how they may apply to the body.
Additionally, in this training, each participant will be tuned to the ascending & descending harmonics of the male & female voices of the Gong. This will assist in connecting you and others to their consciousness.
Playing the Gong is fun, but there are significant benefits to your body and brain occurring while you are being trained to be a skillful Gong artist.
