12-Week Virtual Sound Healing Training

February-April 2027 | Virtual
100-Hour Live & Pre-Recorded Training & Certification

for those that hear the call within to walk the path of healing artistry:

Join us for this expansive immersion in the transformative art of sound healing.

We've witnessed this time and time again:

Our trainings cultivate extraordinary sound healers.

Sound healers who, like us, are devoted to the healing and awakening of the world.

Sound healers who are well equipped – not just with the right gear and tricks, but with the depth of listening, attunement, and co-creative capacity – to create unique and transformative experiences.

Sound healers who are ready to root into the solid foundation we offer and grow expansively into the extraordinary, creative, powerful creators they are here to be.

Because we’re not interested in churning out facilitators.

We’re committed to activating and nurturing your unique and essential gifts.

Across Twelve Weeks:

You’ll develop the musical understanding, technical fluency, and embodied presence needed to guide a full 45-60 minute sound journey with coherence, presence, and your unique expression.

With rhythm and repetition, guidance and grounding, inspired expression and celebration, you’ll witness yourself grow and expand in ways you can’t even imagine.

Week by week, your skills will strengthen.
Your ear will become more refined.
Your  confidence will flourish.
Your unique expression will emerge.

Each week includes:

  • 30-40 minutes of pre-recorded lessons
  • 90-minute live session (expanded teachings, coached practice, dyad facilitation, Q&A)
  • 60-90 minutes of structured practice & assignments
  • 30-60 minutes of sound bath experience (receiving)
  • 40 minutes (minimum) daily morning practices (including yoga, pranayama, morning pages, and sound practice)

You'll need about 6-8 hours a week of dedicated time and energy – a worthy investment into yourself and the path of healing artistry.

What You'll Embody

The Body as the First Instrument

Stillness, nervous system awareness, and regulation. You will learn how your internal state shapes each session – and how to refine it.

Because whether you’ve never facilitated or have been holding space for years, there are always deeper and more potent layers that emerge within us and the space we hold.

Crystal Bowls: Technique & Tone

The rich history and emergent expansion, quartz composition, reading pitch, cents, tuning systems (432 / 440 / 528), foundational playing technique – and more.

Music Theory for Sound Facilitators

Major vs. minor, intervals, chords, octaves, scales to give you the fluency you need to play fluidly, pair instruments precisely, and facilitate confidently.

You’ll walk away with an understanding of why combinations have the feel and impact they do.

Rhythm & The Gong

The heartbeat of sound, how tempo affects the nervous system, how rhythm relates to your bowls and sound baths, ways to play a gong and to weave the gong into your sound offerings.

Voice as Instrument

No need to be a singer – but you do need to find your authentic voice and ability to harmonize with the sounds you are creating with your instruments. This goes a long way in drawing your unique voice through for even greater precision and creative expression in the sessions you hold.

We’ll guide you into your own vocal expression – without performance or imitation.

The Signature Oso Sequence – & How to Create Your Own

Learn our signature sequence – the perfect foundational sound bath experience that will serve as the launch pad for your own unique creative sound explorations and offerings.

You'll also learn how to build your own session intentionally and impactfully:

You will design your own sequence and refine it through exploration, practice, and supportive feedback.

Technical Excellence in Virtual Facilitation

Lighting, microphones, spatial awareness, and how to avoid common virtual pitfalls. We’ll be exploring the virtual space for three months together, so you’ll have plenty of time to dial this in for yourself for your future facilitation and virtual sharing.

Ethics, Boundaries & Contraindications

1:1 vs group containers
Intake basics
Medical considerations
Safe pacing
Consent-forward language

This is responsible facilitation – and it will give you the grounded freedom to have even greater impact in your sessions.

Integration & The Long View

Beyond technique, together we will explore:

  • What makes sound effective?
  • What are you cultivating in the nervous system?
  • How do you want your work to live in the world?
  • What soul song, what unique expression is asking to move through you?

Instrument Requirements

To participate, you must have:

  • Three crystal bowls (minimum)
  • Three additional sound elements (rainstick, chimes, gong, waves, drum, etc.)

All students are required to complete a free 30-minute instrument consultation at least two weeks before training begins.

We will also highly encourage you to procure a virtual technical set up that will support you through this training, your recordings, and the offering of your gifts to your community, clients, and beyond – when you’re ready.

We want your setup to support your learning, growth, and expression as you step forward on this healing arts path.

This Is Specifically Designed For:

  • Anyone who feels called toward sound work and are ready to step forward with discipline and devotion
  • Yoga teachers & breathwork facilitators ready to expand their offerings
  • Therapists, coaches, and practitioners of all kinds

You do not need to be a musician.
You just need to be willing to practice.

Practicum & Certification

Do not mistake this virtual container for being conceptual or theoretical; this training is intended to be explored, embodied, and practice in real time. It will ask for your focus, energy, and devotion.

Throughout the training you will complete:

  • Multiple recorded 10–15 minute practice segments
  • A 15-minute recorded mid-point session
  • A final 30-40 minute recorded sound journey
  • A written arc map + set list
  • A reusable safety/consent language statement

As well as other practical assignments that will ground your learning.

You will also receive consistent, structured peer and mentor feedback.

Upon successful completion, you will receive a 100-hour certification through Oso Sound Healing.

The Oso Transformation

On the other side of this 12-week journey together, you will:

  • Have a deepened connection to your inner artistry and to your healing arts path
  • Know how to play your instruments with deep presence
  • Be able to confidently facilitate our Signature Oso Sequence
  • Feel inspired to expand your own creative expression
  • And so much more...

Whether you feel called to add sound into your existing yoga, therapy, breathwork sessions, to begin sharing your expanded expression on social media, to offer a brand new sound experience to the world – or all three:

You'll be ready.

Testimonials

“This has been such a phenomenal experience. The group was incredibly intimate, so beautiful, and to be able to play the instruments together in community was amazing…I cannot recommend this training enough.”

“I would highly recommend to anyone who’s feeling the call to explore sound healing. I had the most profound experience with this community of like-minded individuals, and I just feel so empowered and inspired…if you’ve got that calling, answer the call. This is your sign.”

“Sound healing has been extraordinary to receive – and also to give. We’ve had both of those experiences in this training and it has been awe-inspiring and moving. As a physician, I am so excited to incorporate this with my clients in my clinic.”
