INNER SOUND
was founded in 1978. Since then,
its co-creators Arden and Jack Wilken
have been teaching the INNER
SOUND system of sound healing
in Europe and America and expanding
their educational program to establish
practitioner trainings in the UK,
Holland, Spain and the USA.
The SCHOOL
FOR INNER SOUND, is devoted
to the education and preparation
of sound therapists who are certified
to work with the INNER SOUND
system. Courses are available at
the School locations in the UK,
Europe and the USA as well as through
distance learning.
The SCHOOL
FOR INNER SOUND offers a range
of courses, seminars, workshops
and practitioner trainings (some
by correspondence) in sound therapy
and therapeutic music that cover
many aspects of this new and exciting
field of alternative medicine. Sound
and music healing/therapy have a
rich tradition in the West which
has lain dormant for over 2000 years.
The SCHOOL FOR INNER SOUND
breathes new life into sound and
music as a healing medium in the
world today.
The basis of the
INNER SOUND techniques that
are taught at the school are a collection
of motifs (short melodies) and intervals,
the uses of which were defined by
Arden and Jack Wilken. The motifs
and the intervals can be found in
the work of Pythagoras, in classical
music, and Gregorian and Sufi chants
among others.
Anyone can learn
to apply these techniques of sound
healing/therapy using their voice,
tuning forks, and most musical instruments
or recorded healing music. No prior
music education is required. You
can also learn how to create unique
& personal compositions for
clients, friends or family using
the specific elements of the motifs
and a variety of instruments from
a library of short sound bites.
Whether you want to produce the
sounds yourself or use recorded
material, the SCHOOL FOR INNER
SOUND provides a wide range
of sound healing tools.
A large area of
study of the SCHOOL FOR INNER
SOUND is dedicated to both the
use and playing of specific motifs
or melodies, so this method is especially
applicable to the area of music
education as well as use by musicians
to improve their contact with their
music and their ability to improvise.
The practitioner
trainings help you create a step
by step process starting with the
creation of your working space and
skills, the development of client/practitioner
relationships, a concise theory
of emotions and their release and
integration through sound and music,
a set of diagnostic tools to determine
what sound or music to use to create
ongoing treatment programs which
offer your clients a process by
which they can integrate sound and
music into their lives. (Some of
the practitioner trainings are available
as correspondence courses).
It is possible
to become certified as a practitioner.
This certification is recognized
by both international and regional
organizations. Through the practitioner
courses it is possible to become
a trainer or teacher in sound healing/therapy
with the voice and sound healing/therapy
with tuning forks.
