This transformative experience will combine the lightness of a suspended, floating body with the soothing practice of a sound bath. 

Harmonizing the body with sound has the power to regulate energy along the meridians and calm negative emotions. It also breaks down old patterns of behavior and the fears attached to them, and resets the physical, emotional and mental body.

The hammock offers a cocoon-like environment, which some compare to the maternal womb that cradles and protects your body.

Enjoy the ultimate experience of relaxation and meditation through a sound bath as you float weightlessly to the binaural sounds of crystal singing bowls.

Cost of workshop: $40 without a hammock rental, $50 with a hammock rental

In this 90 minute workshop, you will have the freedom to float and sway to the womb-like environment of the supportive, aerial yoga hammock. You’ll learn a few restorative aerial yoga poses, so that you can explore the most relaxing shapes for you during the workshop. Poses can be grounded or flying. After taking shape with the support of the aerial hammock, you’ll enjoy deep vibrational, highly tuned sounds from perfect-pitch crystal quartz empyrean and alchemy singing bowls, Himalayan singing bowls, gongs, chimes, ocean drum and more. These powerful vibrations can balance dissonant frequencies in the body, bringing them to harmony and creating feelings of relaxation and connection. Each bowl and tone represents a different energy system or chakra, for deeply healing effects. Bring your intentions and be prepared to float away into bliss. You’ll leave feeling refreshed and relaxed in a very unique way. 

Space is limited. Sign up early to reserve your spot! Please note, each attendee must create a Mindbody profile and register in order to reserve their spot in this workshop.
