Gong Bath Yoga: Relax and Renew
Relax and Renew with an afternoon of restorative breath-centric Yoga and an extended Gong Bath meditation. The gongs will be continuously played during the Yoga poses and the combination of Yoga and the Gongs will do wonders for you physically and emotionally.
We will end the workshop with a 45-minute gong bath meditation, leaving you feeling tuned, refreshed and connected with your intuitive personal power. The pure, penetrating sound waves of the gong cleanses the subconscious and awaken the listener to a transcendent state of awareness.
This event includes a 45-minute Yoga class with Aubrey and a 45-minute gong bath meditation with Wayne, followed by sweets and community.
The gong meditation is best experienced lying down on your back or a similar comfortable position. Wear comfortable clothes and bring whatever you need to be relaxed for the meditation - yoga mat, blanket, pillow, water, eye mask, etc.

Wayne Marto
Wayne comes from an extended family of musicians and studied the gong extensively under Kundalini Gong Master, Mehtab Benton. His authentic style of playing, infused with passion and intention, promotes deep relaxation and transformation.
Wayne has a degree in Psychology, is a certified Gong Practitioner and is a member of the American Sound Healers Association.
"When I heard the gong for the first time, I was deeply moved by the resonating, vibrational healing qualities of the sound. I was swept away by a reflective sense of renewal, a releasing of unwanted emotions and a powerful sense of strong new beginnings. The gong has forever changed me, leading me on a journey of awakening, and uncovering my true passion: to share the healing sounds of the gong with all those willing to listen."
