What is a Sound Nap?

A sound nap is a musical experience where the audience is invited to lie down and relax completely, entering into a tranquil state and exploring a sonic landscape of total beauty. The gentle calming music transports the listener to the corners of their imagination, causing the sense of time to completely fade away.

A sound nap can be performed anywhere: yoga studios, museums, parks…

If you are interested in booking a sound nap, please contact Katalin at katylafavre@gmail.com.

What People are Saying

  • "Katy shared her unmatched talents at our yoga studio, and it was an experience like no other. I have attended many sound baths during my time as a yoga instructor, but Katy's sound nap offering marries the benefits of sound healing with the talents of a musical performer for a completely immersive experience. She is a highly talented percussionist and musician, and we are beyond fortunate to have the opportunity to share her talents with our clients at our studio.”

  • “Katy's sound naps are so soothing for the soul! You truly feel held in a cocoon of sound that hits you exactly where you need it to. Before you know it you are carried into a tranquil state of being, letting all your worries go. Once your are done, you feel calmer, peaceful and much more joyful! Such a wonderful experience.”

  • We loved offering Katy’s Sound Nap as an event in our Salt Cave. It was truly amazing and extremely relaxing. She is so masterful at playing a variety of instruments (harp, vibraphone, drum, etc). Our clients thoroughly enjoyed the experience as they were deeply immersed in the lovely relaxing sounds; and they had so much fun asking her questions regarding her background in France and her musical training. What a rare and memorable experience. And her roadie Dad was so sweet and kind to help transport her instruments. Thank you, Katy! We can’t wait till you grace us with a Christmas special Sound Nap in December.”
