WHAT TO EXPECT FOR THE SOUNDING CIRCLE?
We gather in the round, sounding with breath and voice. Then one at a time, any person so inspired sits or lies in the centre of the circle, as the community feels what the person needs to hear and organically creates sound through voice and musical instrumentation.

A recent review: "April’s sound healing journey transported me into a deep calm, where stillness embraced me and my mind quieted in the most beautiful way. I felt fully present, alive and cradled in sound. Time became expansive and for the first time in so long, I reached a place of true rest. An unforgettable experience."

"April has always been the friend that can make you feel safe, seen and celebrated. As someone who is very insecure in her singing voice, April is the only person that has ever coaxed it out of me - and in groups, no less!"

"Working with April as a vocal coach has been a deeply enriching experience for me. I came to the lessons feeling insecure and lacking confidence in my voice.

Her knowledge of teaching and learning techniques, coupled with her own rich vocal and musical experience make her an excellent vocal coach for any level of singer."
