What students say
Impressions from past student about the training.
I’ve enjoyed every day a lot and I look back at it with a full heart. We were able to cover a lot, and Mauricio made sure to set the right vibe and proceeded the course with a lot of calmth and groundedness. I’ve got to learn so many new things, and it was beautiful to put it to practice in both the private session and group session! Honestly cant wait to start continuing this journey once i get back home after India.
Our teacher Mauricio valued tradition and open communication, and provided a beautiful and safe space for everyone. With a small group we were able to ask a lot of questions, share and learn from each other. The four days training felt a little too short to be able to feel like a ‘sound healer’, but it was packed with useful information and practice, and inspired me to dive deeper into sound healing. We had a beautiful group dynamic, and Mauricio played a big part in that by staying humble, curious and relaxed.
The 4-day Sound Healing course was so interesting from start to finish. A really fascinating experience combined with the opportunity to meet likeminded people. We all had wonderful course facilitation, overall. I learned so much about how sound and our spiritual energy are connected, and I am looking forward to applying this ancient knowledge, in my own way, in the near future.
I literally loved it. We were well coached individually to know how to improve and offer quality care, both individual and group. What I particularly appreciated is that we have a responsibility to transmit the ancestral tradition and not to distort it. Chapeau to the sense of ethics, as i am particularly sensitive to the issue of cultural appropriation.
The course experience was far beyond what I expected. Full of depth, knowledge, fun, sound, energetic upliftment through the healing power of the singing bowls. The connection between the group members, the endless curiosity for more information, the ability to experiment and come out with clear tools for how to deliver a session, and a lot of appreciation for Mauricio for his dedication to sharing and assimilating all the knowledge in an organized, professional, and pleasant manner.
The sound healing training was an enriching experience that deepened my understanding of sound’s transformative power. The supportive atmosphere fostered by Mauricio and the group helped me grow personally and professionally and I’m now looking forward to combine what I’ve learned with my yoga classes.
One year continued education
Most of our students end up to be solid facilitators and sound practitioners, right after the training or following a period to mature the knowledge and connection with the instruments. To support this process, this training includes one year of support via online meetings, scheduled each three months, masterclasses and anytime direct messaging with the teachers during this period.
The complete curriculum is followed by a 40hours level 2 training, named Beyond Sound, that explores artistry, expression, advanced science, drumming, voice and wind instruments, also ASMR and somatics of sound. The 30 Hours level 3 training, named Post-Sound, is focused on research development, innovation using technology and digital interfaces and the leading of sessions beyond the conventional boundaries of the practice. The three trainings complete an unique 100 Hours Sound Healing curriculum.
