Only 6 spaces left.

Cardiff, this is nearly gone.

We’re bringing our floating soundbaths to Cardiff Metropolitan University this summer, turning a busy pool into something completely different.

For 90 minutes, the space slows right down.

You’ll be floating on water, held by an airbed, while deep gong tones travel across the pool and through your body. Not just something you hear, something you feel.

At first, the mind is busy.
Then the body starts to soften.
Breathing slows.
Something shifts.

Most people don’t realise how tense they are until they finally stop.

📍 Cardiff Metropolitan University
🗓 Sunday 10th May
⏰ 11:30am – 1:00pm

Summer series continues:

7 June
5 July
9 August

But this first one is almost full.

Only 6 spaces left, and once they’re gone, that’s it.

Booking link is in the comments / bio.

Come and float… before you miss it. 🌊

Float. Breathe. Let go. The pool holds the space, the water holds you, and the sound does the rest.

Be honest…Are you the one trying to stay perfectly still…or the one quietly tapping your foot pretending no one can see?...

Be honest…
Are you the one trying to stay perfectly still…
or the one quietly tapping your foot pretending no one can see? 😄

I see this every single time.

Someone lies perfectly still at the start of a soundbath.

Arms by their side.
Eyes closed.
Fully committed to “not moving.”

Then the drum begins.

Boom…
Boom…
Boom…

And suddenly…

A foot starts tapping.
A shoulder twitches.
A hand adjusts… then adjusts again… then adjusts again for absolutely no reason.

They are not doing it on purpose.
And they are definitely aware of it.
You can almost feel them thinking:
“Why am I moving?”

Here’s why.

Your brain has built-in pathways that link sound and movement.
When a steady rhythm enters the body, the motor system begins to respond automatically.

This is called auditory-motor coupling.
It is the same reason you tap your foot to music without thinking.

The body is not trying to annoy you.
It is trying to synchronise with the rhythm.
So if your foot starts tapping during the drum…

You are not doing it wrong.
Your nervous system is just joining in.

Somatic drumming… where rhythm meets the body, and the body finally answers back.

Most people think drumming is something you hear.

But your body experiences it very differently.

Before the brain even has time to label the sound…
the body has already felt it.

The skin picks up vibration.
The fascia carries it.
The fluids shift with it.
The nervous system starts to organise around it.

This is where it gets interesting.

Your body is not just reacting to rhythm, it’s trying to match it.

Slow, steady beats can nudge the system out of high alert.
Irregular rhythms can stir what’s been held underneath.
Repetition gives the mind less to do… so the body can say more.

That “fidgeting”, the sudden breath, the urge to move, even the emotion that comes out of nowhere…
That’s not random.
That’s the body answering back.

In somatic drumming, we’re not chasing a perfect rhythm.
We’re listening for the body’s rhythm underneath the noise.

And when those two begin to sync…
something shifts.

Not because we forced it,
but because the body finally felt safe enough to respond.

Be honest…

Have you ever felt your body react to a drum before your mind could explain it? 🥁

Last two spaces… and then this one closes.

There’s something different about being held in the air.

The body softens quicker, the breath drops deeper, and the noise in the mind doesn’t have as much to grip onto. You’re not lying on the ground holding tension… you’re suspended, supported, gently rocked by subtle movement.

Then the sound begins.
Gongs, drums, and tones don’t just stay in your ears, they move through the fabric, through your body, through fluid and fascia. The nervous system starts to downshift, the breath slows, and something inside you lets go… often without you even trying.

This is less about “relaxing” and more about remembering what calm actually feels like.

Seventeen souls came together on the land… and something shifted.

At the Down to Earth residential centre in the Gower, Swansea, we stepped out of noise and into rhythm. Breath slowed. Bodies softened. You could feel it in the room… that quiet moment where the nervous system finally lets go.

We moved through deep breathwork, constellations therapy, somatic sound workshops, and long, immersive soundbaths where vibration travelled through the floor, the air, and straight into the body. Not something you just hear… something you feel.

There was laughter, there were releases, there were moments where people simply lay there and let the sound do its thing.

The weather held us beautifully too, sunshine on our faces, fresh air in our lungs, grounding us back into something simple and real.
And in the middle of it all… a huge milestone.

Fed’s students stepped fully into their role as shamanic space holders, completing their training and holding space with such care, presence, and strength. Watching that unfold was something special.
This is what these gatherings are about.

Not escaping life… but returning to yourself.

From Ostara to Litha, from awakening to full expression… this work deepens.

If you’ve been feeling the pull, this is your sign.

Our next Litha retreat is in June, and it’s already calling in the right people.

You’ve tried meditation.
You’ve tried relaxing.
But your body still won’t switch off.

That’s because calm isn’t something you think your way into…
it’s something your body has to feel.

That’s where we come in.

We don’t just run soundbaths, we create somatic experiences that bring you back into your body through rhythm, vibration, and interoception.

Float on water, suspended in a pool while sound moves through you.
Drift in a hammock, gently rocked as tones wash over your nervous system.

Or lie grounded, feeling every frequency travel through the floor, into fascia, into breath.

3 ways to experience it.
7 venues across South Wales.

📍 Floating: Langrove Health Club (Swansea), UWC Atlantic (Llantwit Major), Cardiff Metropolitan University (Cardiff)
📍 Aerial: Urban Zen (Swansea), Golden Grove Retreat Centre (Carmarthen)
📍 Grounded: Down to Earth Project (Swansea), Coed Hills Rural Arts Centre (Cowbridge)

Different spaces. Same outcome.

A quieter mind. A softer body. A version of you that’s been waiting underneath the noise.

The drum reaches parts of the brain words cannot.

At the start of a soundbath, most people are still in their head.

Thinking.
Planning.
Trying to relax… but not quite getting there.

Then the drum begins.

Boom…
Boom…
Boom…

And something shifts.

Not because you told yourself to relax.
But because deeper parts of your brain start responding.

The steady rhythm interacts with areas linked to memory and emotion, especially the hippocampus.

This is why people sometimes feel something during the drum without knowing why.

A memory.
A feeling.
A sense of familiarity.

No clear story.
No obvious reason.

Just… something.

This is not about switching off your mind.
It is your nervous system recognising rhythm in a way it has done for thousands of years.

Before language…
Before logic…
There was rhythm.
And your body still remembers.

Be honest…

Have you ever felt something during sound or music that you couldn’t explain?

“Overthinking? Yeah… we’ve got a gong for that.”

The last Coed Hills soundbath sold out in a day.
This one will too.

Wednesday 29th April, Cowbridge.

This isn’t just listening.

Sound moves through the body, through fascia, through fluid, helping the nervous system slow down.

People always say the same thing…

“I didn’t realise how much tension I was holding.”

If your mind never switches off… this is for you.

💧 LAST 6 SPACES – FLOATING SOUNDBATH 💧

Langrove, Saturday 28th March

You’re not just listening… you’re inside the sound.

You’re lying on a floating airbed, warm water gently holding you.
Your body softens without effort. Your breath slows.

Then the sound begins.

Soft chimes first… light, almost like ripples on the surface.
Crystal bowls shimmer through the space.
And then the gongs arrive… deeper, slower…

You feel it move through the water…
through the airbed…
through your back, your chest, your whole body.

This is somatic.
Not just heard, but felt through fascia, breath, and nervous system.
The mind quietens.

The body lets go.

And for a moment… everything just drops.

Only 6 spaces left for this one. These always sell out.

📍 Langrove Health Club, Parkmill, Swansea

The drum reaches parts of the brain that words cannot.

I see this all the time.

Someone lies down at the start of a soundbath, and their mind is busy.

Thinking.
Planning.
Replaying conversations.

Then the drum begins.

Boom…
Boom…
Boom…

And something shifts.

Not because they “decided” to relax.
But because something deeper in the brain starts responding.

The steady rhythm begins to interact with areas linked to memory and emotion, especially the hippocampus.

This part of the brain helps organise experiences and connect them to feeling.

Which is why sometimes, when the drum starts, people feel something they cannot explain.

A memory.
A sensation.
A feeling of familiarity.

Not always clear.
Not always logical.
Just… there.

This is not about thinking your way into calm.

It is the nervous system responding to rhythm in a way it has done for thousands of years.

Long before language…
We had rhythm.

And your body still remembers.

Be honest…
Have you ever felt something during sound or music that you couldn’t explain?

Getting used to bringing mixers and recorders into my life has been both joyful and slightly maddening in equal measure. Learning about levels, gain and sound effects feels like stepping into a whole new side of sound work.

Getting the handpan sounding right on the recorder was one thing. The gong though… well, that’s a completely different beast. Anyone who has tried to record a gong will know it has a mind of its own. One strike can whisper, the next one can wake the ancestors.

But that’s part of the journey. Practice, patience and a lot of experimenting.

Here’s a little snippet of me playing and letting the gong speak. I hope you enjoy it.
