Beneficial Sound Sanctuary — Local services in Kenmore

I had a truly wonderful experience at Beneficial Sound with Wayne Marto. From the moment I arrived, Wayne was warm, welcoming, and attentive, creating a comfortable environment to explore the art of gong playing. The sanctuary itself is a beautiful and inspiring space, filled with numerous gongs that provided me with the opportunity to experience different sizes, tones, and styles firsthand.

Wayne is not only a skilled player but also a gifted teacher. He patiently demonstrated a wide range of playing techniques and encouraged me to try them myself, offering guidance in a way that felt supportive and empowering. What I appreciated most was his depth of knowledge; he openly shared insights into the strengths of different brands and even some little-known characteristics of various manufacturers across price points. This gave me a much clearer understanding of what makes a gong truly high quality.

Beyond the hands-on learning, Wayne also provided additional resources and perspectives that will continue to support my sound healing journey. Overall, Beneficial Sound is an exceptional space to both learn and play, and Wayne’s generosity and expertise made the experience one I would highly recommend to anyone interested...

I immediately felt at ease in the Beneficial Sound Sanctuary as the space is cozy and intimate. I was expecting to walk away with a certain amount of newfound knowledge and that I did, plus more. Wayne teaches with a wonderful balance of passion, respect and expertise. He is very relatable and has a wealth of knowledge that comes from years of playing these instruments—and he is more than willing to pass along that knowledge. What a gift it is to encounter someone who is doing what they truly love to do. I highly recommend Wayne for a private lesson or gong...
