Gong Bath Hour
Gong/Sound baths at YSY
No yoga experience is necessary – we cannot take anyone pregnant for these sessions.
An hour of magic – sound to heal and restore your nervous system.
The gong is the basic creative sound. Out of the gong comes all music, all sounds, all words, nothing can compare, we need do nothing but relax and trust and allow the gong to work its magic on our body’s biorhythms, and energetic cellular components and cleanse our minds.
Your comfort
You can either lie down for the gong or sit up, (we have some chairs if needed) and we will have props out for you to use if you need them. (sheepskins, bolsters, blankets, blocks).
Come wearing comfy warm(ish) clothes and arrive 15 minutes before the start of each session – we start prompt.
Tickets are non-refundable or transferable to another date.
You can contact us if you have a substitute able body to take your place.
Please be considerate about the current flu/cold/covid climate we live in and not attend if you feel unwell or knowingly have a virus so that we create as safe a container for the sound as we possibly can.
You can buy your ticket online here by searching for the calendar date that you wish to attend.

What do they say about Yogaspace Yorkshire?
I want to do your yoga Nidra class again – I slept so well. Thank you.
Yoga at Patrick Brompton Hall is a very special experience.
The beautiful and peaceful yoga studio is the perfect setting for yoga practice.
I have been to many different yoga retreats both in the UK and overseas and this one was by far the best.
My advice? Book it now!
I came on retreat and stayed at the cottages with my oldest daughter in June 2018 and January 2019.
Emma and Charlie are the perfect hosts they made us feel completely welcome in their beautiful home which sits in beautiful grounds surrounded by spectacular views of Yorkshire.
To sum it up with one word: love. The best yoga retreat I have been to.
Amazing teacher, wonderful hosts, beautiful facilities, gorgeous surroundings, and delicious food.
Absolutely loved every bit of it
The Women’s Group has been an amazing, welcoming, warm experience.
The positive energies and collective female wisdom has been brilliant – the thought provoking sessions followed by the yoga and final gong bath was the perfect balance – thank you Emma – and please can we do it all again!
Emma’s Kundalini classes are ‘first-class, a relaxed and professional atmosphere. Emma is fabulous teacher and really opens you to a new way of being while you show yourself self-love and care’
From the first moment of entering the beautiful hall, I knew this studio is something special. A light spacious yet so cozy and calm yoga space is hard to find. Relaxation comes naturally and yoga is so much more enjoyable in these beautiful surroundings. Emma is am amazing kundalini yoga teacher and divine when playing the gong. Her classes are challenging yet respect individual circumstances and make you feel so much better instantly. She is very knowledgeable, connects theory and practice with ease, is full of energy and positive spirit and a joy to be taught by. I truly love my kundalini yoga and gong sessions with Emma
I have taken part in several Kundalini yoga classes during retreats at Patrick Brompton Hall and have loved all of them.
I was a novice to this particular yoga but the classes catered for all abilities and I was immediately made to feel comfortable.
I couldn’t have asked for a better start to my Kundalini yoga journey and I can’t wait to go back again soon!
