Yoga of sound
Nada yoga practice provides an effortless way for cultivating peace within: a deeply pleasing and accessible way to experience the effects of Sound both upon us, within us, and in the world. This School is for anyone who is interested in the use and effect of sound in their yoga practice or teaching.
Nada translates as ‘subtle sound vibration’. It follows a clearly guided system towards hearing these subtle sounds within us, enabling us to incorporate these practices and learnings into our lives. Working conscientiously through these practices offers you insight into your life and the opportunity and tools to transform your daily routines and individual & universal vibration.
Nada Yoga is the easiest way to supreme consciousness”
Gorakhnath (The Tantric Guru: Laya)

faq
Do I need to be a yoga teacher?
No. This is an introduction to Nada Yoga and some of the practices that can lead up to experiencing it. However, this course offers profound gifts to anyone interested in yoga at any level and therefore suites students and teachers alike.
If you are applying through the BWY and would like accreditation then you will need to either be, or become a member.
Is this the same as sound baths?
There are no instruments involved apart from the ones inside your body.
Do I need to have music experience to do this course?
Your interest in this course would indicate that you already have a strong interest in music and sound however, no formal training is needed. This is not a course on how to be a better musician, it is the exploration of sound in its most purest form.
I’m not a confident singer, does this matter?
In this course you are given the opportunity to develop your ability to produce sound using your voice. Laura was an International Opera Singer and shares a wealth of experience, teaching methods and games to help you grow in confidence whilst building strength with your voice without risk of damaging it.
Will we need instruments?
The only instrument you will need is your voice.
I’m not a yoga teacher and have very little experience, will I be out of my depth?
This Yoga course is designed to embrace the absolute novice while concurrently allowing for a deeper exploration for students with experience of yoga. This is possible due to the simple, yet profound practice that is Nada Yoga. Often the most experienced among us, return to the very basics to refine their practice.
