Ananda Healing Arts & Purple Otter Studio are excited to welcome Joe Teixeira of Namaste Imports to back to Milwaukee for the 2nd year. This informative and inspiring weekend will consist sound baths, various beginner, intermediate & advanced workshops on Tibetan Singing bowls and a chance to purchase exclusive antique Tibetan Singing Bowls from Joe's private collection. For those who attended last year, this year we have worked in more opportunities to for advanced learning and plenty of time to practice and play, on your own and as a group. About your hosts: Joe Teixeira has over 25 years experience with Tibetan singing bowls. He started Namaste Imports in 1997, specializing in the import of Tibetan Singing Bowls and over the years he has amassed one of the largest collections of singing bowls in the country. Joe's business is 100% referral based, selling his bowls in person only (no website!), finding him yearly in Milwaukee at Summerfest and Bastille days. Joe has traveled extensively to Inda & Nepal every November since 1997 and continues to do so (with the exception of covid) to make his purchases for the following season. He spends hundreds of hours sorting through bowls, picking only the best to sell to his customers with a 95% rejection rate. Kathryn Rambo has over 40 years experience as a board-certified music therapist, meditation instructor, reiki master and adult educator. From 2005 to 2021 she offered a holistic sound practice that used a combination of Dr. Herbert Benson’s deep relaxation techniques, Tibetan singing bowls, and Reverie harp to help people turn off the body's stress response and rediscover a place of homeostasis and inner peace. Today she works as a wellness coordinator for seniors who struggle with living in poverty, offering classes, resources and programs that focus on helping them gain and retain whole person wellness. Laurel Ziemienski is a Sound Practitioner, Cacao Facilitator, Reiki Master Practitioner, Energy Worker, and Meditation Guide.
