The power of sound can help us achieve tranquility in mind, body, and spirit. Come relax, unwind, and simply enjoy this uniquely powerful experience.

Note: Doors will close and class will begin PROMPTLY at 6:30pm to ensure the integrity of the experience, so attendees should plan on arriving 10 minutes early. We do not allow late entry so as to not disrupt other participants.
