Events in April
APRIL 5-7: Gong Course with Bjørn Løken at Husbygård, Bettna, outside Nyköping, Sweden
Learn how to use the gong as an instrument of healing!
The gong is a powerful instrument that has been used for many thousands of years to heal many types of ailments in people and animals. The frequencies you can get out of a good gong are very complex and affect us on a cellular level. When the body is out of balance, perhaps due to physical or psychological ailments. the frequency of every cell is changed. With the help of the gong you can balance a body that is out of balance and restore the optimal frequency of the cells.
In this course you will learn different stroke techniques. It is very important to master different kinds of strokes, dynamics and rhythmics in order to bring out all the qualities from the gong. You will learn how to use musical effects when playing the gongs in order to affect body and mind so that the body actually understands when it is out of balance. Moreover I will talk about and show how you can combine different kinds of gongs and how to combine the gong(s) with crystal instruments. I will also talk about and show how to use the Gong in Qi Gong and Yoga exercises or other forms form movement therapies.
For whom is the course suitable?
The course is suitable both for beginners and for those who have played gongs for a long time. The point of the course is to give inspiration and expand both the repertoire of strokes and the way of thinking when it comes to what a gong is and how it can be used most efficiently and constructively.
