Sound healing training
Sound healing training with certificate, in small groups, no prior experience needed.
I’m Frank Peschke, a multi-instrumentalist who has been working with sound and frequencies for over 10 years. In five intensive training days, you’ll learn how sound can affect the body and nervous system, how to work with singing bowls, gongs and natural instruments, and how to lead a sound journey for groups or 1:1 sessions. You’ll also be able to bring what you’ve learned into your own offerings or your profession, for example as a yoga teacher, coach or therapist.
If you feel drawn to the fascinating world of soundscapes and frequency work, and want to learn how to facilitate supportive processes through sound, I look forward to sharing my knowledge with you and inspiring you on your new path.
My sound healing training courses are conducted in English or German
Sound Healing course with Natural Instruments
You’ll learn and play Himalayan and crystal singing bowls, planetary gongs, flutes, handpans, monochord, shruti box, drums, ocean drum, rainsticks, wind chimes, tuning forks and crystal sound pyramids, plus voice and overtone singing.
I live what I teach & I teach what I live
I don’t just teach sound healing, I live it. For over ten years, I have guided people with sound, working every day with singing bowls, gongs and voice. I play more than 20 different instruments. You will rarely find this range among sound healing teachers.
A profound journey to a magic place
This training takes place in a very special and energetically charged location: The "Quinta Algarve": a castle-like country house with its own sound dome and sound yurt, surrounded by the evergreen nature of the Algarve in Portugal.
Let the sound guide you – no prior knowledge required!
No prior knowledge? No instruments of your own? No problem! I'll meet you where you are , using your current knowledge. We'll tailor the training content to your individual needs. The only thing you really need is curiosity and an open mind.

Experience more Sound Healing: Sound massages, gong bath & Inner Dance
Gong Bath
Let yourself drift with the complex effects of several planetary gongs, whose specific frequencies harmonize body and mind. A gong bath supports the regeneration of cells and tissue, aids energetic detoxification, and releases emotional and physical blockages. The powerful vibrations move stagnant energies and restore the flow of prana (life energy) – for greater clarity, lightness, and well-being .
Sound Healing Massage
In Sound Healing Massage, various instruments such as singing bowls, gongs, tuning forks, and/or overtone-rich instruments are used specifically to create gentle vibrations in the body. These vibrations penetrate muscles and tissue, release tension and blockages, and harmonize the flow of energy. My Sound Healing Massage helps you reduce stress, find emotional balance, and achieve a state of deep relaxation.
Inner Dance
Inner Dance is an inward journey , accompanied by music, sound healing frequencies, breath, and intuitive movement. This ancient method helps you enter a meditative state, dissolve blockages, and expand your consciousness. Through the targeted use of sound healing frequencies , a space is created for profound inner processes that allow you to let go of old patterns and draw new energy. I look forward to accompanying you on this path!
Real reviews from real participants
Mackenzie Maher via Google
Frank is so awesome! I attended one of his sound bowl healing journeys and could immediately tell how passionate he is about this. It was such a comfortable, warm space that felt completely accepting. The journey was so inspiring and had so many separate pieces that created a beautiful experience.
Frank also stayed after to answer all of our questions which I really appreciated!
Hannah via Google
Amazing experience!
I’ve done other sound journeys and healings but none were as impressive and memorable as this one. While it’s done by one person it sounds like three are doing it with sounds coming from different places. You truly reach a state of full relaxation.
I can only recommend coming here and also staying at the Quinta.
Andrew Ferkiss via Google
Frank led me on a sound journey that invoked feelings of wonder, awe, and connected me in a deep way to the mystery of life. I would love to come again and have another sound journey!
Beautiful and cosmic, the sound journey felt like an ancient, advanced technology and I’m so grateful to have had the experience. I recommend to all!
Soundhealing La Palma
I went to two of Frank’s sound journeys and experienced something truly transformative. In those sessions I recognized a deep truth about my life that gave me the courage to quit my job and follow a completely different path. One year on, I’m now practicing as a sound healer — and I honestly don’t think I would have taken this step without Frank’s presence, sensitivity, and skillful guidance. Thank you, Frank, for holding such a powerful and compassionate space. You changed my life
