Common Fence Point Arts, Wellness, and Community Center

Join Drumsinger A. Michelle and Russell Kramer for an immersive and relaxing sound experience featuring singing bowls, gongs, drums, and chimes. Admission is $30 and attendees are encouraged to bring what they need to be comfortable on the floor for this 90-minute restorative session.&nbsp;
Come&nbsp;treat yourself to a sound journey like no other. Let the powerful&nbsp;resonance of the gongs carry you into a dreamlike state of relaxation&nbsp;and inner clarity. As waves of sound wash over you, many find that&nbsp;tension softens, the mind quiets, and the body naturally returns to a&nbsp;peaceful, balanced baseline. Settle&nbsp;in as drums, bells, and singing bowls open the space and guide you&nbsp;gently inward. The gongs then take you on a transformative&nbsp;journey—vibrational, expansive, and deeply restorative—before chimes and ocean drums&nbsp;welcome you back, played intuitively and created just for you&nbsp;in the moment.
No&nbsp;two gong baths are ever the same. Each experience is shaped by the time&nbsp;of year, celestial rhythms, and the collective energy of those present,&nbsp;allowing the sound to unfold uniquely every time. Participants&nbsp;typically rest lying on their backs on a mat or relax in a comfortable&nbsp;chair. You remain fully clothed; no water is involved. The “bath” refers&nbsp;to an enveloping wash of sound. For maximum comfort, please bring a&nbsp;mat, blanket, and pillow. 
This&nbsp;experience offers a powerful opportunity for meditation and deep&nbsp;relaxation—even for those who feel they “can’t meditate.” Within this&nbsp;spontaneous soundscape, many naturally drift into calm, expansive inner&nbsp;spaces where insight, rest, and renewal arise with ease. Your&nbsp;guides for this experience include Drumsinger A. Michelle, Piper Padillia,&nbsp;and Russell Kramer, holding space for a journey of sound, stillness, and&nbsp;restoration.
