This is by far the best tutorial I have ever seen. You explain all important aspects in a simple way and I love that you point out clearly how important it is to not play too harshly.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m delighted to hear that you found the tutorial helpful. Playing the gong gently is essential to creating those soothing and resonant tones, and I’m glad that emphasis resonated with you. Your feedback inspires me to continue sharing more insights. Happy gong playing! 🎶
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It's wonderful to hear that the video has inspired you. Your Grotto Sonora and Heng Gong are fantastic instruments. Keep spreading the beautiful vibrations. 🎶
they sound beautiful. the theta wave discussion is interesting too. i can imaging these would be very relaxing to play and/or listen to. makes me think of my tongue drum on a larger scale.
They do sound beautiful, don’t they? The discussion about theta waves is indeed fascinating. When played or listened to, these bowls can help guide the brain into a state of deep relaxation, similar to the effects of a tongue drum but on a larger, more resonant scale. Both instruments are wonderful for creating a calming atmosphere and facilitating meditation and healing. Have you ever tried incorporating your tongue drum into a sound bath? It could add a unique and soothing layer to the experience.
I think I may have heard you playing a gong in Boulder a couple weeks ago! If not, you look and speak very similarly to the guy who inspired me to get my first gong, which arrived today!
We introduce a "snore buddy" system. At the begging of each bath we remind that snoring is natural & just ask that the person closet to the snorer to give them a gentle pat or to. So the snorer can change position.
Thank you for this 🙏 I've been a sound vibe healer & soundbath facilitator for 10 years & I bought my 1st gong 6 months ago. It's a beautiful 34" feng/wind gong. I have a large C stand gong which is great but it takes up a lot of room & takes a while to put together when I travel with it. I love those stands you have, I haven't seen them before, they look like they'd be quick to assemble, what are they called please?
Congrats on your first gong! Those stands I acquired from JAM Percussion in the UK. So great for traveling with. Highly recommend: www.jampercussion.com/buy/jam-tamtam-gong-stand-foldbable-fully-adjustable_659.htm
Hi Tammy! So glad you enjoyed the video. The white mallet. That particular gong mallet is not a branded mallet. I picked it up from a instrument store called Ganharva Loka in Vancouver. If you'd like you can check out their website here and perhaps reach out to them to see if they have a similar one you can order. www.gandharvaloka.ca/gong-stands/ Happy Gonging!

You have inspired me with this video. I have a Grotto Sonora 19 in gong and a 28 inch Heng Gong that I love playing.

Great vid mate, yeah snoring can be an issue for other participants. I think if everyone had a weekly gong bath, we could change the world
