“Gongs For Yoga Teachers – Introductory” Qualification (half to one day) for 1-3 People

It has been designed for yoga teachers (or others with similar needs) who are interested in learning to play gongs for use in their own yoga classes.

The cost is £200 per person (requires non-refundable deposit of £50).

No previous experience with musical instruments is necessary.

Between one and three students may attend simultaneously, each paying the £200 fee.  If there is one student only, the day will be 4 hours.  For two or three students, the day will last 7 hours (and will include a 45 minutes lunch break).

It’s an introductory short course that focuses on:

• Fundamental skills and techniques for playing (learning and practicing on a range of the highest quality gongs).
• Choosing and buying gongs and related equipment (including mallets, flumeys, stands, carry cases, cleaning equipment, etc)
• Important practical aspects of using gongs at events

It will be an intensive session as there is a lot to cover, but will also be fun and you’ll be surrounded by the sounds and vibrations of gongs throughout.

It is strongly recommended that at least 20 hours of case studies (in which you give one to one gong baths to willing volunteers) are carried out after completion of this one day course and before playing the gongs in a professional environment. This will give you extremely valuable opportunities for experience, practice, and for feedback in a non-paying setting.
