 Further Sound Healing Online Certification Details + Requirements:

• Experience requirements: All levels of learning are welcome from beginner to advanced.

• Instrument Details:  It's highly recommended for students to own at least 2 special instruments for the curriculum, which will vary for each individual.  Each student will begin their study with a phone consultation to determine what instruments will be used for the curriculum.  Billy will work with each student to make sure their individual interests + instrument choices are understood and work for the program.  We also do offer three specially designed sound healing instrument packages that correspond to our curriculum's session maps.   We select the highest quality of instruments and guarantee their tuning for the optimal sound healing experience.  Again, purchase of our instrument package(s) is not required but highly recommended.  However, should you have your own instruments, you're very welcome to use those for your certification.

• The online curriculum student portal:  Our student portal offers access to the curriculum’s 5 courses with dozens of video tutorials, pdf course guides, course resources to use for developing your practice, supporting articles + self-reflective homework assignments.  Students work individually and at their own pace to complete each online course and its requirements.

• Coursework includes: watching video tutorials, reading supporting articles, completing written homework assignments designed to help you discover and articulate your style of practice and completing 5 practice sound healing sessions with friends/family to help perfect your craft.

• Final Certification requires: completion of a final 40 minute sound healing session, recorded and submitted for our assessment, feedback and final certification.  The final submission may be either an audio recording or a youtube video link. 

•  We estimate the curriculum to take around 40 hours for completion.  This estimate will vary based on each student’s learning style and pace.

Approximate Student Time Commitment is around 40 hours:

The following is an estimate and will vary based on each student's learning style and dedication:

Video Viewing Time:

40 videos, many approximately 3-5 minutes each, though several key instructional videos are 20-30 minutes.  Each meant to be viewed at least 2 times = 6 hours

Article Reading Time:

10-12 articles to read and study = 3 hours

Written Homework Time:

Several reflective writing assignments for self development and growth = 2 hours

Instrument Practice Time = 20 hours

Sound Healing Session Time:

6 sound healing sessions ( 5 practice + 1 final to be recorded and submitted for certification) = 8 hours

We sincerely love sound + music, and we love helping people find special instruments, and holding space for people to feel deep and relax. It's been a 20 year long evolution in our space on Eagle St in downtown Asheville.  In that time we've become known for our instrument sales and our sound healing sessions. It would be our honor to help you learn more about sound and develop your own unique approach to working with sound + helping others to find space for healing.  

Thank you very much,

-Billy
