My journey as a student/teacher of yoga and the many modalities of sound healing continues to evolve and transform. The Soul of Yoga Sound Institute is truly a gem. The variety of training modules and workshops offered at the Institute are top notch. The expertise and passion the facilitators bring to students is a testament to the quality of the program. I love the guidance and support of Amanda Domnitz. She is amazing. I feel blessed to have completed 100 hr. Foundations of Sound Healing and 50 hr. Kirtan training. These trainings have provided me the opportunity for personal growth and the skills to share with others.

Alice G.

The Soul of Yoga is part of my life since 2015 and the fact that they are now incorporating Sound Healing has simply brought a whole new A-HA to my life.

I always loved music and sounds and as my husband tells me I am the only person who is not a professional musician who talks and lives music and sound like I do. (He is sweet right?).

Anyway this year I have already taken many sound healing workshops and I can’t wait to start my 100 hour sound Healing certification soon. The latest one that I participated in, Yoga for the Voice, brought me confidence to sing out loud and use music daily not only for myself but to be a better person and make this World a better place by raising my vibration. Who doesn’t want to be around higher vibes right?
