Practitioner Consultation
Instrument and Mallet Selection - Virtual Consultation
Need help purchasing bowls, gongs, or mallets like Dragonfly Percussion’s Benjamin Irons Signature Series wands and inviters? Every instrument is unique and it’s easy to become overwhelmed during the selection process. I’m happy to take a listen and give you feedback, saving you time and money when building your dream set!
I will contact you directly via email to book your first appointment. Payment is required to reserve your slot. My standard rate is $150/hr ($75 for half-hour).
Sound Healing Private Lessons
Are you making the same mishaps that I see in 99% of sound practitioners??
Take your sound healing to the next level with private instruction from a professional percussionist, certified sound therapist, hypnotherapist, and advanced meditation teacher. Singing bowls, gongs, drums, bells, chimes, and cymbals are all in my wheelhouse. Most non-musician consultations focus on grip, playing zones, set-up, stroke mechanics, sound concepts, rhythm, harmony, overall musical phrasing, and mindfulness integration.
Rate: $150/hr
Common coaching topics:
Instrument and mallet selection
Singing bowl “family” pairings
Percussion technical coaching
Music theory and terminology for non-musicians
Sound bath meditation formatting
Meditation script assistance
Meditation fundamentals
