Pragya Yoga School offers far more than a course in how to play singing bowls. Our training is a complete professional journey through sound, vibration, meditation and healing, rooted in authentic Himalayan and Tibetan traditions and strengthened by Sound Therapy, meditation, modern scientific understanding and extensive hands-on practice.
You will progress from personally experiencing sound and silence to mastering 10 structured sound-healing styles, professional 30–90 minute sequences, Himalayan singing bowls, gongs, sound meditation, vibroacoustic therapy, vibrational massage and chakra–Kundalinī-oriented practices. You will learn not only how to play an instrument, but why, when and how to use sound purposefully.
And because sound healing depends deeply on environment, you will train in our peaceful jungle-based wellness resort near Kathmandu, with dedicated sound-healing spaces, soundproofing, silent underfloor heating and an extensive collection of singing bowls and gongs. Our goal is not simply to give you a certificate, but to prepare you to return home as a knowledgeable, confident, sensitive and responsible professional sound-healing practitioner.

Learn Authentic Himalayan & Tibetan Sound Healing in Nepal
Learn close to the living culture from which Himalayan singing bowls and many of the spiritual traditions surrounding them have developed.
Our intention is to preserve traditional approaches while also teaching carefully structured applications for meditation, personal practice and contemporary wellness settings.
✅ Himalayan-style sound-healing practices rooted in the yogic traditions of Nepal
✅ Tibetan-inspired sound-healing methods
✅ Traditional understanding of sound through Yoga, Vedic, Upaniṣadic and Buddhist perspectives
✅ Seven-chakra sound practices
✅ Traditional Kundalinī-oriented sound practices
✅ Sound meditation and the progressive journey from sound toward silence
✅ Grounding, integration and conscious closing techniques
Master 10 Structured Sound-Healing Styles & Sequences
You will not leave knowing only how to strike a bowl or conduct one basic sound bath. You will practise 10 different styles of sound healing, including structured sequences ranging from approximately 30 to 90 minutes.
These include:
✅ Himalayan Sound Healing
✅ Tibetan-Style Sound Healing
✅ Private Sound-Healing Sessions
✅ Group Sound Baths
✅ Sound Meditation
✅ Vibroacoustic Sound Therapy (VAST)
✅ Singing Bowl Vibrational Massage
✅ Gong Healing
✅ Self-Healing Practices
✅ Chakra & Kundalinī-Activating Sound Practices
By first mastering structured sequences and understanding the purpose behind every stage, you gradually develop the ability to adapt and eventually create your own meaningful sound-healing sessions.
Learn from Yogesh Pokhrel’s Integrated Approach
Yogesh Pokhrel brings together his background in Yoga Therapy, meditation, yogic philosophy, science and sound healing to approach sound as much more than an instrument-playing technique.
Alongside preserving traditional practices, he has developed structured methods that integrate physical relaxation, breath awareness, meditation, singing-bowl vibration, gongs, sound, silence and traditional energetic practices.
His approach teaches you to understand what to play, how to play, when to play, how much sound to use, when to allow silence, and how each stage contributes to the complete healing and meditation experience.
Learn Through Extensive Hands-On Practice
Professional confidence comes through experience and repeated practice, not theory alone.
Throughout the training, you will continuously listen, play, observe, give, receive and facilitate sound-healing practices.
✅ Give and receive sound healing regularly
✅ Practise directly with fellow students
✅ Experience different healing styles from the receiver's perspective
✅ Repeatedly practise individual techniques before combining them
✅ Conduct complete private and group sequences
✅ Receive personal correction and professional feedback
✅ Progress toward independently facilitating complete sessions
This practical approach is strongly reflected in student feedback: participants describe the opportunity to repeatedly practise individual and group techniques as an important part of developing their confidence and ability.
Experience Sound Healing Yourself
Before guiding another person, it is important to understand how sound and vibration feel from the receiving side.
During the training, you will experience different styles of sound healing yourself. This allows you to observe how volume, rhythm, vibration, placement, progression and silence influence your experience.
Through receiving as well as giving, you develop greater sensitivity, awareness and responsibility as a practitioner.
Explore an Extensive Collection of Singing Bowls & Gongs
One of the special advantages of studying with us is having the opportunity to see, hear, play and compare many different healing instruments, rather than learning from only one basic set.
✅ Traditional Himalayan/Tibetan singing bowls
✅ Different sizes, weights, shapes and thicknesses
✅ Handmade bowls of different qualities
✅ Full Moon singing bowls
✅ Chakra bowl sets
✅ Different types and sizes of gongs
✅ Tingsha, bells, mallets, strikers and supporting instruments
You will learn to recognize differences in tone, resonance, sustain, vibration, craftsmanship and practical application, helping you understand which instruments are appropriate for different styles of practice and how to select instruments for your future professional work.
Understand the Science Behind Sound & Vibration
Traditional wisdom becomes even more valuable when you can clearly understand what belongs to ancient philosophy and what can be discussed through modern science.
Explore:
✅ Sound, vibration and frequency
✅ Resonance and forced resonance
✅ Harmonics and overtones
✅ Acoustic entrainment
✅ Anatomy and physiology of hearing
✅ Brainwave states
✅ Nervous-system responses
✅ Psychophysiology of relaxation and meditation
This gives you the vocabulary to discuss sound healing with both respect for its traditional roots and professional responsibility toward modern scientific understanding.
Integrate Sound Healing into Your Existing Profession
If you are already a yoga teacher, meditation teacher, massage therapist, spa therapist, retreat facilitator or wellness professional, the training can add a powerful new dimension to your existing work.
Learn practical ways to integrate singing bowls and gongs into:
✅ Restorative Yoga & Śavāsana
✅ Meditation & Deep Relaxation
✅ Yoga Therapy & Wellness Programs
✅ Massage & Spa Treatments
✅ Retreats & Holistic Wellness Programs
✅ Private Sound-Healing Sessions
✅ Group Sound Baths & Sound Meditation
Small Groups & Personal Guidance
Sound healing requires sensitivity, observation and individual correction. For this reason, our professional training is intentionally conducted in small groups.
You have time to ask questions, repeat techniques, work closely with the instruments and receive individual correction and feedback, rather than becoming one participant among dozens of students.
Develop Your Own Sound-Healing Style
Our goal is not to make you permanently dependent on memorizing somebody else's sequence.
First, you learn structured techniques. Then you understand why each bowl, placement, rhythm, vibration, interval, progression and period of silence is used.
With knowledge, experience and repeated practice, you begin developing the ability to adapt existing sequences and eventually create your own safe, purposeful and authentic sound-healing experiences while respecting the principles from which you learned.
Prepare for Your Professional Sound-Healing Career
Your journey does not end when you receive your certificate. We help you understand how to transform what you have learned into a responsible professional offering.
✅ Designing private and group sound-healing services
✅ Creating sound baths, workshops and retreat experiences
✅ Integrating sound healing into an existing wellness profession
✅ Selecting and gradually building your professional instrument collection
✅ Understanding ethics, consent and professional boundaries
✅ Client intake, contraindications and safety considerations
✅ Guidance for beginning self-employed sound-healing practice
✅ Foundation for eventually developing your own sound-healing or wellness center
Train in a Purpose-Built Sound-Healing Environment
Sound healing requires more than beautiful instruments—it requires an environment where you can listen deeply, experience vibration and appreciate silence.
Pragya Yoga School is located within Jungle Mahal Wellness Resort, surrounded by forest and nature near Kathmandu. Instead of travelling to a busy city studio for a few hours of classes, you can live, study, practise, receive healing, meditate and rest within the same peaceful wellness environment throughout your training.

More Than a Certificate—Become a Practitioner
At Pragya Yoga School, the purpose of professional sound-healing training is not simply to complete 50 hours and receive a certificate.
We want you to leave Nepal understanding sound, vibration, instruments, meditation, traditional philosophy, modern science, professional practice and—most importantly—the responsible use of silence. Through knowledge, personal experience and extensive practice, our aim is to prepare you to return home as a confident, knowledgeable and responsible sound-healing practitioner who can work with others professionally and continue developing your own authentic approach for years to come.
