ANGELA, GONG PRACTITIONER GRADUATE
Built on depth.
Not trend.
Sound Therapy Scotland is a CMA accredited practitioner training academy based in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire. Both courses lead to certificates that enable graduates to obtain professional insurance and work with the public.
Classes are kept to a maximum of three students.
01.
Evidence over assertion
No wellness hype. No unsubstantiated claims.
Everything taught here is grounded in lived experience, studied knowledge, and a genuine commitment to safe, ethical practice.
02.
Small groups, real attention
Practitioner classes are kept deliberately small.
It is what makes it possible to meet each person where they are and develop them as an individual practitioner with a sound that is genuinely their own.
03.
Your sound, not a copy
No two practitioners who complete this training sound the same.
The structure ensures everything is covered, however this is not a one-size-fits all approach.
FLAGSHIP COURSE
Gong Practitioner Course
Six months, four teaching weekends, small class sizes. You will meet the instrument properly, develop your own offering, learn to work with clients, and on successful completion receive a CMA accredited Gong Practitioner certificate.
