Informed by music science, nervous system awareness, embodiment and ancient wisdom, this workshop seeks to connect you to using sound as a collaborator both for yourself and for your students.

The music in your class is more than background noise. It's a thread that guides your students' breath, nervous system state and attention from the moment of arrival to the final moment of rest and beyond. This hands-on workshop for teachers will empower you with the skills and knowledge to curate soundscapes that support your teaching rather than compete with it and invite your students into states of presence and flow.

You'll learn the basic principles of sequencing sound for the arc of a class as well as diving into some of the science of how we sub-consciously respond to sound. We'll play with practical skills on Spotify to unleash your inner DJ, including some time unpicking the new Mix Functions. We'll explore tempo, texture, silence and transitions, and how to match your sonic choices to different styles of practice and different class lengths. You'll leave with a deeper understanding of how (why and when) to structure a soundscape for your classes, so you can plan with confidence.

There will be a follow up call to mop up anything we don't have time to cover on the day and to answer questions once you've had time to play and integrate. The date will be decided based on majority attendance - this will be recorded for those who can't make it on the day. Whether you're a new teacher finding your feet or an experienced one looking to refresh your skills, this workshop will help you create an atmosphere that invites your students sink more wholly into their practice.

Please bring a phone or laptop with your Spotify premium account and headphones so that you can practically engage with the content on the day. We'll start with a practice to land; moving and sounding together to honour the communal space.

The Luna Hut sauna will be booked after the workshop, for those who would like to continue to hang out, relax and nerd out in community. There are pricing options for both with and without sauna.
