ABOUT THE EVENT
Following a sold-out sound journey hosted at Lighthouse Holistic in August 2025, AKI Sound Studio returns to South Africa to present its Foundational Level 1: The Power of Sound Healing Training. This marks the first time AKI’s certified Level 1 Training is being offered in this collaborative South African setting, bringing the studio’s most sought-after foundational immersion to Cape Town.

Guided by Lama Brian Hilliard and Shannon van Staden, the training blends theory, embodied practice, and energetic transmission, uniting the science of sound with the alchemy of transformation. Over two days, participants will work closely with Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls®, developing both technical skill and intuitive understanding, while gaining the confidence to apply sound healing in personal, therapeutic, or professional contexts. This return reflects the resonance built during AKI’s previous event in Cape Town, now deepened through a focused, in-depth training experience.

“For anyone considering this training, I wholeheartedly recommend it. Whether you are just beginning your journey or looking to refine and deepen your practice, this experience will give you the tools, knowledge and inspiration to grow in ways you never imagined. I would do it again in a heartbeat — what a beautiful, transformative process it has been.” 
— Elena, UK (former student)
