Explore Our Gong Trainings
Healing Through Sound,
Taught With Intention
At the intersection of traditional sound practices and embodied awareness, our trainings offers a considered space to explore gong and sound healing with depth and integrity. Each learning experience is approached with a balance of structured methodology and intuitive attunement, allowing your practice to develop with both confidence and sensitivity.
We honour the subtleties of sound, listening and presence, guiding you through experiential practice, reflective learning and hands-on technique that reveals the transformative potential of sound. Here, development is not rushed; it is carefully held and progressively refined, unfolding at a rhythm that supports embodiment and your own authentic expression.

You will be guided throughout the course by Danielle North - an experienced sound healer and intuitive, supportive tutor. Danielle creates a space where personal transformation and professional development go hand in hand.
Between modules, you will complete coursework and case studies, giving you the opportunity to practise with others, refine your technique and build confidence in your skills before offering your services professionally.
This training is more than learning to work with gongs - it is a year of deep practice and inner work. Before we can guide others in healing, we begin to do the work for ourselves. This training gives you the time and tools to do exactly that.
During the training, the frequencies of the gongs will support your own emotional clearing and energetic alignment, so that you feel grounded, present and able to hold a safe, supportive space for others.Class sizes are kept small and Danielle delivers a truly individual experience in a group setting.
-
All dates must be attended in person and in order. Please check your availability before booking.
By the second weekend you will need to have the use of your own gong. Guidance on choosing the right gong will be provided in the first session.Homework will be allotted after each weekend session, and case studies required for graduation. A short-written exam or presentation will be set near the end of the course.
-
There will be a practical evaluation during Session 3 in which the participants will give a supervised gong therapy treatment to another student.
Thirty-six practice treatments (Case studies) will need to be carried out and written up to complete the course.
Students will also need to complete a 2,000 word essay and pass a short written or practical examination.
Full attendance at every session & completion of all the coursework is required to graduate.
