Sound Baths in London
Structured group sound experiences at Indaba Yoga, Marylebone
Sometimes what you need is not more input or more effort, but a structured space to slow down and notice what is happening in your body and attention.
Swiss Sound Therapy sound baths in London are guided group experiences using Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, drum, voice, rhythm and silence. The session is shaped through pacing, intensity and listening rather than the idea that a particular instrument or frequency produces the same effect for everyone.
Sessions take place at Indaba Yoga in Marylebone. No previous experience with sound baths, meditation or breathwork is needed.

What can you expect from a sound bath?
A sound bath offers a structured period away from everyday demands, with no need to perform, concentrate or achieve a particular state.
Participants usually lie down comfortably while sound, rhythm, voice and silence are introduced gradually. The pacing and intensity change throughout the session, with periods of space to notice how you are responding.
People experience sound baths differently. You may notice physical relaxation, changes in attention, a quieter mental state or simply a greater awareness of your body. There is no particular experience you are expected to have.
A sound bath may be particularly suitable if you want to:
- take a deliberate pause from a busy schedule
- explore sound and vibration in a group setting
- slow down without needing to know how to meditate
- experience a guided session without pressure to participate or perform
Our approach to sound baths
At Swiss Sound Therapy, a sound bath is not a fixed sequence of instruments. The structure is built around how the group is responding in the moment.
I work with pacing, intensity, repetition, contrast and silence, using instruments such as Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, drum and voice where appropriate.
The aim is to create a coherent progression rather than simply filling the session with continuous sound.
Attention is also given to transitions: when to build intensity, when to simplify, when to introduce silence and when to allow more time for integration.
This makes each sound bath responsive to the group while keeping a clear overall structure.
What happens during a sound bath
Before the session
You are welcomed into the space and given simple guidance so you know what to expect. There is no need to prepare, meditate or arrive in a particular state.
During the session
You usually lie down comfortably while the session develops gradually through sound, rhythm, vibration, voice and silence.
Depending on the session, instruments may include:
- tibetan singing bowls
- crystal singing bowls
- gongs
- drum and rhythm
- voice and overtone techniques
- other acoustic instruments
The intensity and pacing change throughout the session rather than following a continuous wall of sound.
After the session
There is time to return gradually, notice your experience and settle before continuing with your day.
Sound baths in London at Indaba Yoga
Swiss Sound Therapy sound baths in London take place at Indaba Yoga in Marylebone.
Each session may have a different theme, but the underlying approach remains the same: a gradual progression through sound, rhythm, vibration, voice and silence, with attention to pacing, intensity and how the group is responding.
You are usually invited to lie down comfortably and simply listen. There is no need to meditate, visualise or try to achieve a particular state.
Depending on the session, I may work with Tibetan singing bowls, crystal bowls, gongs, drum, voice and other acoustic instruments, with periods of silence allowing space to notice the experience.
The intention is to create a structured group experience where you can slow down and listen more closely to your own response, rather than prescribing what you are supposed to feel.
