Sound Tools & Listening Workshop
Join sound practitioner Julie Kalua for an experiential introduction to sound healing tools, designed for curious listeners, practitioners, and anyone wanting to better understand how different instruments affect the body and nervous system.
This workshop focuses on how to listen, rather than how to play. Through guided demonstrations and discussion, participants will explore the distinct qualities of rhythm, resonance, and vibration as experienced in the body.
Instruments featured include:
Drums
Metal singing bowls
Crystal singing bowls
Handpans
Following the demonstrations, participants will have time for hands-on exploration, questions, and embodied listening. Space is intentionally limited to allow for interaction, clarity, and direct experience with the instruments.
✨ Workshop Bonus:
Participants will receive 10% off sound tools with a $100 minimum purchase, valid the night of the event only.
Important Details
Please arrive 10–15 minutes early to settle in.
This is an experiential listening workshop, not a meditation or performance.
Space is limited and advance registration is recommended.
“Authenticity is my main experience with Julie. With that quality, she invites the raw you out and makes you free completely being yourself, then making choices from there. I am new to sound healing and singing. I had been thinking about taking singing classes. Julie’s vulnerable share affirmed my confidence in honoring my authentic voice, after hearing her journey as a professional musician and now discovering her own voice. She was so patiently and generously guiding me discovering the resonance between the Tibetan bowl with my own rhythm and voice, which was such a soul touching unforgettable experience that is so precious in this world.”

“An absolutely amazing evening. I love your passion in guiding others to find the right bowl/healing and empowerment in honoring everyone’s unique spiritual journey. Such great information! Your class was one of the best workshops that I’ve attended at the store, and I’ve attended many over the past 30 years. Thank you!”
