Next ReikiSound class to be held late Fall/early winter 2021 depending on covid-19 guidelines. 

You need not be a reiki practitioner to take this class, but you must have received reiki and be familiar with energy healing.  However, priority is given to reiki practitioners when attendance is limited. This is for any level reiki practitioner. Venues determine whether or not masks and other covid guidelines will be followed.  We do want to use caution in spite of the discrepancies and ongoing changes in cdc, state health agencies  and medical scientists' findings.  

Second Sunday Sound Meditations are held at Soundwise Health Studio in Lancaster, Pa. every month.  from 7:00pm to 8:30pm usually on the second Sunday of the month.  We use the gentle sounds of singing bowls, gongs, crystal tuning forks and pyramids, indigenous percussion, chimes, shruti box, the voice and throughout the year have special feature sound artists using didgeridoo, sitar, hand pan and tone drum, harmonium, kalimba, harp, flute, guitar, or whatever comes our way! Light weaving and reiki are part of these meditations.  We have limited attendance and observe other precautions due to covid, so tickets are limited.  As CDC and state guidelines change we will continue to respect the health and beliefs of others.

Next Group Sound Meditation Immersion (sometimes called "sound bath") is May 16.  Our beautiful sanctuary of sound is peaceful, uplifting and sometimes people find it to be healing in a number of ways. The deep relaxation certainly supports our immune systems.  Tickets are available through Eventbrite: Sound Meditation, The Journey Within. We do start on time.  Plenty of parking.

Learn how to begin using sound, voice and music in the healing arts. This  40 hour course is designed to introduce hands-on experience for holistic practitioners such as massage and energy therapists, yoga instructors, acupuncturists and hospice workers to begin using crystal and metal bowls, gongs, chimes, tuning forks, percussion, voice and other instruments. 

Next class begins November 2021 depending on covid-19 impact and guidelines. Individual private classes are ongoing on a limited basis. Please contact Lana Ryder for more detailed information at soundwisehealth@aol.com. Sound Therapy is a vast topic. This 40 hour course introduces you to the basic science, principles and suggested protocols for working with a number of instruments. Please understand that a weekend class does not make you a sound therapist. There is much more to it and we will get you started on the right path so that you have enough information to help you decide in which direction or what specific instruments you wish to pursue in more depth. A certificate of completion is given when you have met all requirements, including prerequisite reading, videos and practicum.

Limited private students accepted for the 28 hour class with 10 hour practicum, $550 per student. This class is scheduled over 2-3 months.  Private instruction takes place in the Soundwise Health Studio in Lancaster.  Schedule is determined by availability of student and instructor,  determined by their individual needs.
