A brief message from Jim about this training, who it’s designed for, and what you’ll learn to facilitate.
If You’ve Ever Felt Unsure About Leading Sound...
Many wellness practitioners are drawn to sound because they can feel its calming effect, but hesitate to lead with it because they’re unsure what to do, what to say, or how to structure an experience that feels grounded and safe.
This training is designed to remove that uncertainty.
You’ll learn clear, accessible ways to guide sound-based wellness experiences with groups, even if you don’t consider yourself musical or have never led this kind of practice before.
The focus is not performance or theory.
It’s practical facilitation you can use in real-world wellness settings.

-
Lead simple, grounded sound-based experiences for groups
