Bristol Gong Baths
Gong Intensive Weekend
July 4th/5th 2026 Bristol
Originally masterminded by Sheila Whittaker, this unique two day immersion is now held in Bristol by Annette Shaw, carrying forward a lineage of deep listening, intuitive playing and presence.
This is a hands on learning experience for those called to explore the art of the gong. Beyond technique, you’ll be invited into a more refined way of listening, developing sensitivity, awareness and trust in your own intuition.
Over the weekend, you’ll explore:
• Foundational gong playing skills and techniques
• The art of deep listening
• Cultivating intuition and responsiveness
• Holding presence for yourself and others
• Creating space through sound
Held in a supportive, focused environment, this intensive is about connecting and entering into the heart of the gong, not just learning it.
Whether you’re beginning or looking to deepen your relationship with the gong, this weekend offers a grounded and immersive path into the transformative layers, colours and subtle healing aspects of the gong .

About the event
Letting go for some deep rest and replenishment in healing sound frequencies and vibrations. Perhaps you might like to set an intention for what you'd like to release or bring in to your life experience. Just bringing your cosy quilt or blanket, pillow and soft mat, just lie down and give yourself permission and time to just let go.
Nothing to do, nowhere to be, nothing to try to achieve. The frequencies from the gongs and clear voice, soothe the brain into deep rest, you may even fall asleep if you set yourself up comfortably enough. Falling asleep allows you to receive the healing without the interruption of the mind, but either way, as we are all energy, the sounds reach us somehow, magically, just as we need.
There is so much more to sound and energy that we can hear and taking time to receive, replenish and restore in…
