Testimonials from our Students

"I completed the sound training with Natalija and Jonny in January 2024. I am now a 500+HR Yoga Teacher and benefit deeply from all of the wisdom they shared. They shared thorough perspectives on both the science and spiritual side of sound and how it works as a healing modality. The deep dive into both the science and spirituality has not only aided in my teaching career, but also in my personal life. Understanding sound in a deeper sense has helped me manage different styles of yoga classes/offering a lot more effectively. I’ve managed to gain confidence in adding crystal sound bowls and experimenting with other instruments and my own voice to foster a deeper experience. Highly recommend this training!" — Simon, Yoga Teacher from Melbourne

The training with Nati and Jonny was prepared with a lot of love. You could tell how much energy they put into everything and how much passion they have for what they are doing. It was well structured and a perfect mix of theory and hands-on experience with the instruments. We had plenty of time to go through the instruments and try everything out under their guidance and learn how to hold our own space. They took the time to answer all our questions. Nati and jonny are very warm people who create a beautiful space. I am so happy that I have done this training and am now ready to create something beautiful of my own. Thank you so so much Nati and Jonny!

Dear Natalija & Jonny I find it hard to express just how deeply grateful I am right now. You’ve opened a whole new world to me. When I started the teacher training, I came with no expectations. For most of my life, I didn’t consider myself a musical person. I struggled with playing the guitar as a child and thought that part of me was closed off. But you guided me to reconnect with my creative, intuitive musical side. And I've fallen in love. The space you created was so magical. You welcomed us into an environment that was inspiring and safe, sharing your deep knowledge of sound healing with such warmth, wisdom, and humor. I could feel how nuch work, effort, and love you put into this cours. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, thank you, thank you!

What truly makes this training special is their genuine love and dedication. They not only shared their knowledge and techniques but also encouraged us to bring what we learned into the world with joy and passion. I felt welcome and inspired throughout the entire experience. The combination of theory, practice, and a supportive atmosphere gave me a lot of confidence to embark on my own journey as a Sound Practitioner. Thank you, Jonny and Nati, for this unforgettable journey!

This Sound Journey training with Nati and Jonny was beyond my expectations. Everything was crafted with so much love and attention to detail. Both Nati and Jonny bring extensive knowledge of music, instruments, yoga philosophy, space-holding, and so much more, skillfully weaving all these teachings together. I also loved their authenticity and how they made the training fun and interactive. I left feeling not only excited to bring what I learned into my work but also confident in what I was taught and what I will be offering. I highly recommend this training!

Nati and Johnny's training introduced me to a complete approach for facilitating sound-based journeys that goes beyond just the physical element of sound. The approach was a perfect blend of technical, practical, intuitive and experiential elements as well as 1-on-1 support that prepared and inspired me to develop and refine my own personal way. I'm really grateful for the experience and can definitely recommend the training to anyone who intends to incorporate sound elements in their practices or lift their current approach to a new level!

Co-Founder Soulravel
Jonny has been a dedicated yoga teacher for 10 years, sharing his expertise at retreats, festivals, and trainings around the world.
Before discovering yoga in 2009, he was deeply immersed in music and sound. Growing up in a musical family, he recognized at a young age the incredible healing power of sound and aspired to use it to help others as it had helped him. However, as a young musician, he became disillusioned with the egos and toxic lifestyle of the music industry, losing sight of his purpose and passion. Injured and confused, he turned to yoga. Through healing his own body and experiencing the profound, transformative effects of yoga on every aspect of his life, he knew he had to share these gifts with as many people as possible.
Having worked with thousands of students, Jonny has witnessed how deeply personal each healing journey is. While he uses his extensive knowledge of the body to support his students, he believes that curiosity, exploration, and personal discovery are more important than achieving perfection. Beyond the physical practice, he excels at creating safe spaces where people can feel and express themselves freely. It brings him great joy to share his years of experience and training in sound in a more meaningful way, through sound healing ceremonies and trainings.
With deep reverence for the teachings, Jonny brings a lighthearted approach to life, empowering others to live fearlessly, forgive generously, and love unconditionally.

Natalija is a passionate Yoga Teacher with over 500 hours of RYT certification and a certified Sound Practitioner whose journey has always been guided by a deep commitment to healing and human connection. With a rich background in social work, where she spent years making a difference and earned her Master’s degree, Natalija discovered in yoga a profound path of devotion. This path not only deepened her own spiritual practice but also allowed her to bring powerful tools of healing to others.
In her teaching, Natalija merges the timeless wisdom of traditional yoga with innovative practices that invite students to dive deep into the full spectrum of yoga. She is devoted to creating holistic and accessible experiences that encourage curiosity, self-compassion, and a profound connection to the present moment. For Natalija, yoga is far more than physical postures; it is a living philosophy, a journey into the heart of being, where the true essence of self is revealed.
Music has always been the heart beat of Natalija’s life, a constant thread that weaved through her experiences and passions. Natalija's exploration of music has led her to a deep connection with healing instruments. The transformative power of sound captivated her leading her to explore its ancient healing modalities in India and its modern applications. These sacred sounds have brought her healing on multiple levels, serving as guides to a profound sense of homecoming. As a sound healer, she combines this deep connection with sound into practices that resonate with the soul, harmonizing the mind, body, and spirit, and awakening the innate healing potential within each of us.
Guided by a spirit of continuous evolution, Natalija remains inspired by the resilience, strength, and beauty that emerge when we tap into our inner wisdom. Through her work, she honors the sacred journey of self-discovery and transformation, and it is her greatest joy to share this journey with others.
