movement & sound awaken the power within
our offerings
We are based in Lake Macquarie NSW where we hold weekly Chakradance, Sound baths & Sacred frame drum & voice workshops at Speers Point Amateur Sailing Club. Private sessions are also available for 1 on 1 or groups.
Our heartfelt intention is to create a down to earth and relatable, safe healing space.
Sound Healing
Sound healing is an ancient and powerful therapy that combines a range of instruments & sound healing tools from around the world, noticeably improving well-being on a multi-dimensional level. Everything is vibration, including our bodies. When our bodies are out of tune, this is when dis-ease presents itself. Whether that be mentally, physically, spiritually or emotionally. Sound healing is a non-invasive and effective way to trigger the relaxation response, counteracting symptoms caused by chronic stress to allow space for more ease and flow in life. Each week we focus on a specific chakra.
Wednesday Nights at 7.30pm - 8.50pm
Term 1 commences Wednesday 5th February 2025
Bookings for 1 night or for the 9 week term are available.
ChakraDance
Chakradance is a Jungian based movement therapy that uses spontaneous dance & guided imagery, to specific chakra resonant music, for the purpose of healing and re-tuning your whole mind-body-spirit-energy system. It is a transformational inner journey of self discovery.
Chakradance is Monday nights 7.30pm during school terms.
Signup for the 9 week series.

Sacred Frame Drum & Voice
9 week series. commences
thursday 6th February 5.45pm -7.15pm
friday 7th February 10am - 11.30am
Learn to play the Sacred Frame Drum & open up to the healing powers of the voice in this introductory workshop, exploring the rich history, techniques, and rhythm of this diverse healing instrument for meditation, ceremony and self expression.
The Frame Drum has been used for thousands of years cross-culturally as a tool to induce trance, deep healing and ceremony. There is a rich history of Women frame drummers that is re-surging. Modern research studies are showing that singing & drumming produces physical and emotional benefits that are beneficial to holistic health & wellbeing.. The vibrations of the drum & voice create a sonic massage, enabling stuck energy to shift and re-tune the body. It also evokes inspiration, boosts brain cognition, can help unlock your creativity and it is great fun!
If you have a heartbeat, you have rhythm. It is the Universal experience that is part of the symphony of life. You don’t need any musical experience to access this instrument, this course is ideal for the complete beginner. Each week we will explore basic hand played drumming strokes, connected to the five Universal elements of earth, air, fire, water and ether/space and close each session with an easy to follow medicine song or mantra. You will be given a practice folder to take home and access to a private FB group with home practice recordings.
All you need is a hand held frame drum and a curiosity to learn to begin.. (drums are supplied if needed as we go over the various drums in this workshop)
The 12, 14 or 16 inch Remo Frame Drum is affordable and available at most music stores.
When the Sacred Frame drum & Voice show up, it’s time for transformation!

healing session
Christine offers 1 2 1 sound healing sessions for women at her private studio by appointment.
Christine offers private Integral Sound Healing sessions for Women, to meet the specific needs of the individual. This is a wholistic approach, taking into account current lifestyle and stress contributors. The initial session is 90 minutes in total, the healings are up to one hour. Each sound healing begins with an assessment of current energy field around the body using a tuning fork, to determine where excess energy is blocking the flow, or deficiencies are. These symptoms can present mentally, physically, spiritually or emotionally. Sound healing works on a multi-dimensional level, which is why it is so effective and the shifts can be felt and experienced after the first session. For lasting results it is recommended to have a minimum of 4 consecutive sessions.

what is a Chakra?
Chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning spinning wheel of energy. We are vibrational beings spinning energy all the time at different frequencies. These energy centres are also represented by the elements. Earth, water, fire, air, ether and light. Which is often easier to relate to as these elements are tangible.
The base chakra, (located at the base of the spine) is represented by the element earth. When balanced the qualities are a feeling of belonging, security, and connection to Mother Earth and surroundings. Imagine a tree blowing in the wind with shallow roots, if it is not properly supported it cannot withstand the turbulent winds that come and go. Same principle applies to humans, we too are nature.
Our aim is to activate and balance all 7 chakras, not by knowledge, by your own personal experiences. To come home to yourself, awaken your full potential and true essence of who you are.

Such a sacred and amazing experience.
Had my very first sound healing session yesterday and it was such a sacred and amazing experience. The facility was perfect and the atmosphere allowed for the most therapeutic and relaxing healing session. Christine has a gift at making you feel at ease and allowing you to relax and immerse yourself inside the sounds and vibrations. I will definitely be recommending this business onto my family and friends and can’t wait to allow the healing to continue.

I can't even articulate the spiritual and emotional growth in that time.
I stumbled across an event on Facebook for Chakra Dance 12 months ago and was super curious after having a breathwork experience and synchronicity's popping up around dance (and kundalini energy). I was incredibly nervous when I finally got the courage to reach out but Chris put my mind at ease instantly. I agreed to commit to the 9 week series not knowing what to expect, I am now into my 4th term of chakra dance and 3rd term of the Women's Sacred Frame Drum and Voice class.
I can't even articulate the spiritual and emotional growth in that time. Chris has created the most sacred safe space in her drum and voice circle and is so intuitive with her teachings and her ability to hold space. If you are a woman looking for your people, a space where you are free to bring ALL of you, where you can unleash your wild woman, and be held wherever you are on your journey, or you want to find your way home. You need to check out Chris's class.
Rick and Chris make an incredible team with sound baths and chakra dance and compliment each other perfectly.Amii

On each occasion that I have invited Christine to be a part of a gorgeous women's group I run from Wesley Mission, Newcastle; Christine is sure to bring her wealth of knowledge & passion for alternative medicine and healing. Christine brings something new every time that educates and allows the group to channel their Devine feminine, prior to entering a meditative relaxed state immersed in sound bath vibrations. Christine's infectious energy and positive vibes create a safe and trusting environment, allowing for personal growth & healing. I highly recommend SOUNDz Healing, your mind and body will thank you

it gave some incredible insights, a creative outlet & the spiritual re-connection I had been missing.
Profound experience! I did the Chakra dance series which came highly recommended from a colleague. It transformed me subtly over the weeks which was a surprise! I made great friends, with whom I stay connected. Plus it gave some incredible insights, a creative outlet & the spiritual re-connection I had been missing. What a pleasure.. oh and those late evening lake views! Christine and Rick are the ultimate guides, and provide a safe inviting space for everyone x

It is a gentle calming practise that offers, relaxation, peace and well being.
Love love the Soundbath, i have been going now for the past year. It is a gentle calming practise that offers, relaxation, peace and well being.
You feel amazing afterwards and sleep so well. We all need a little time for ourselves, it's not being selfish, it helps you, which helps you be calmer and more understanding with others. I would highly recommend you try it out.
We all need to love each other more.

I was also so grateful that I was able to learn to play the frame drum - not online - but IN PERSON and with such a fantastic group of women.
I took Christine’s 9-week Sacred Frame Drum & Voice course. Christine is the real deal - a gifted musician, teacher and healer, and a warm and authentic person. This class was an inclusive, fun, and profound experience. I was also so grateful that I was able to learn to play the frame drum - not online - but IN PERSON and with such a fantastic group of women. I could not recommend this course or any of Soundz Healing’s offerings more highly

My spiritual journey has been taken to a higher level than ever before,
I was drawn to an ad for Charkradance late last year & immediately signed up without knowing what it was. My 1st series started this year and it has changed my life.
The space that Soundz healing create is nothing short of magical & the subtle but powerful modality has become a major part of my life & practice, I am now approaching my 4th series and could not see my life without it.
I now follow up with the Soundbath on Wednesday night, again the space and journey that Christne & Rick take you on is so moving, their skill & talent with sound brings you in tune with exactly what your soul requires.
I have also started attending the Scared frame drum & voice course that Christine offers, again through this journey I am finding peace & enlightenment of who my true self is. The power of sharing space with women in circle and learning a new instrument.
My spiritual journey has been taken to a higher level than ever before, I have so much gratitude and love for Soundz Healing sharing their talent and passion for us all to experience.
Together we can change the world.Lesa

Bliss. Peace. Calm.
I have nothing but gratitude for the offerings of Soundz Healing. It’s very hard to put into words the benefits. As a live in carer for my 90 year old mother my anxiety is high and regular sound baths are helping me cope, both mentally and physically. Bliss. Peace. Calm. I can also highly recommend individual sound sessions with Christine.

I’ve seen remarkable improvements in my stroke related speech impediment and overall well-being.
"I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the transformative experience I've had in your SACRED VOICE & DRUM classes. After facing significant challenges with aphasia, I was searching for a way to reconnect with my voice and my inner self. Traditional methods weren't quite resonating with me, so I dove into exploring alternative therapies and practices.
When I found your voice & drumming sessions, it felt like a breath of fresh air. Your approach—combining rhythm, community, and compassion—created a nurturing environment where I could truly express myself. The sense of belonging and acceptance in your classes has been invaluable. You’ve cultivated a sacred space where every participant feels heard and valued, and that made all the difference for me.
Your deep understanding of music therapy and its healing powers shone through in every session. Drumming snd singing with you not only allowed me to release my stress but also helped me regain my confidence in my voice. I’ve learned to embrace the process of healing, to be gentle with myself, and to let go of the pressure to perform perfectly.
Thanks to your guidance, I’ve seen remarkable improvements in my stroke related speech impediment and overall well-being. Your classes have become a vital part of my recovery journey, and I’m eager to continue this path with you."

I STRUGGLE TO FIND WORDS TO DESCRIBE WHAT THIS SPACE CREATED FOR ME
and the group collectively. I never envisioned that I would be learning, connecting and creating so much more than beats and rhythms. To Chris and each of the amazing Women in the group, thankyou, thankyou, thankyou.
