The archetype of the Priestess is an ancient spiritual calling. She is the archetype of the feminine spiritual leader. In this modern-day age, the Priestess path is the calling for the divine feminine to rise into positions of leadership once more.

The Priestess path is for those called to step forward in their service at this time. There is no prescriptive ‘way’ to Priestess, but devotion is that the core. Examples of your Priestessing could include: personal ceremonies on the Earth, or healing work with your family, or through 1:1 or group work with clients.

If you are a woman on a spiritual path and you feel a deep dedication to Gaia and her people, then the priestess path may be calling you.

The Priestess Path of Sound is for those who feel a deep calling to weave the power of Sound and Healing Frequency into their Priestess service. This is an ancient lineage stretching back many millenia, when women were Temple singers, drummers and musicians creating ceremony and ritual with sacred sound for healing purposes for themselves and community.

If you too feel this ancient call, then we invite you to enroll in the Priestess of Sacred Sound Practitioner Training!

You do not need any musical or singing experience to take this training, or to have taken any specific prior spiritual training before taking this training. You will be guided through our vocal empowerment practices and training to awaken your true soul’s voice, and this is something you will remember from deep within you!

If you have completed other energy healing training, priestess training, vocal training, spiritual training, or any of Elsa’s previous courses or initiations, you will be eligible to enroll in this training. If you are unsure whether this course is suitable for you, we invite you to book your complimentary 1:1 Priestess Alignment session with Elsa and she will personally advise you.

The Priestess of Sacred Sound Practitioner Training is an advanced Priestess path, so Elsa does not usually recommend this training for those just beginning their spiritual journey. This is because Sacred Sound is a deeply transformative tool, and this course requires a certain degree of personal self-awareness and prior self-discovery in order to be beneficial.

Our next 6-month live cohort will begin August 5th 2025 and complete February 3rd 2026.

 
Live calls are on Tuesdays at 6 pm or 8 pm UK / 1 pm or 3 pm ET / 10 am or 12 pm PT.

Every month of your 6 month training you’ll have 3 live calls + 1 integration week.

Dates for the optional in-person retreat are Monday 15th September - Thursday 18th September 2025, Glastonbury, UK

Yes, this training provides you with an internationally recognised certification that empowers you to be a Priestess Sound Healer/Priestess of Sacred Sound. You will learn how to create and hold ceremonial space with healing sound combining your voice and other sacred instruments. To our knowledge, there is no other current training combining the priestess arts with the sound healing arts all in one!

During the training you will receive mentorship and guidance from Elsa & the guest teachers on how to create a soul-centred service that allows you to shine in the fullness of your gifts. This is not a business training and does not contain business coaching or strategy, however it will allow you to overcome blocks to your confidence and authentic voice that may be preventing you from taking the leap into your service in the world.

You will receive guidance in how to facilitate both 1:1 and group sound healing sessions as a Priestess of Sacred Sound.

If you choose to, you can continue on after the training into our Priestess of Sacred Sound Mentorship Community with Elsa, a monthly container where students can receive ongoing coaching including sacred business support.

The online training is delivered via weekly recorded content (videos, workbooks + practices) released to you in our virtual portal, along with our live Zoom ceremonial classes to integrate the teachings. In order to receive the certification you will be asked to complete 4 case studies demonstrating your commitment to applying the techniques taught in the course. Your case studies will be reviewed by Elsa and her team. You can submit your case studies up to 1 year from your enrollment in the training.

You will have LIFETIME access to the content online via an online portal for as long as it is available on the internet, which is currently, indefinitely. After 6 months, you’ll be invited to join our ongoing Priestess Mentorship Community, where you have the option to continue access to live calls.

No, this is a Practitioner training that empowers you to bring these healing modalities into your own practice, not to teach others how to provide them also.

The retreat is limited to a maximum of 18 women, to keep the group size and training intimate.

You will receive weekly content in the form of a tutorial video or recorded practice released to you for 6 months, that you can go through at your own pace. Our live-taught sessions create a sacred space to connect with the sisterhood, and experience sacred sound ceremonies together. You can attend live (encouraged) or catch the replays if live sessions do not work for your timezone. We will gather in the early evening UK time, morning-early afternoon North America. In between live sessions, you will be provided with guidance as to how to integrate the teachings.

It is up to you how much time to commit to the practices and meditations between our live sessions. Part of the path of the Priestess of Sacred Sound is to develop a regular/daily joyful practice using sacred sound. This is how you will develop and attune to the healing sonic frequencies and begin to feel them impacting on your life and work. This training requires a degree of self-love and commitment to maintaining a personal spiritual practice that is unique to you. As sacred sound becomes a natural part of your daily life, you will find such great benefit in these teachings that you won’t remember a time without them!

To receive certification, you must complete 4+ case studies and submit them for review by Elsa and her team. A case study is any ceremony, healing session or ritual where there is at least one attendee, and you are integrating sacred sound as a main component.

In 2025 our in-person retreat will be held at The Gables retreat centre, approximately 15 minute walking distance / 5 minutes by car from Glastonbury town centre.

Glastonbury is a small town in Somerset (South West UK), approximately 45 minutes from Bristol Airport and 3 hours from London. Glastonbury is the ancient Isle of Avalon, a land of great beauty and history with deep connections to the Priestess Path.

Elsa’s retreats are filled with music, song, sister circles, and deep and profound sound healing ceremony. You will be deeply immersed in Avalon and the transformational energy of the land here. We will gather at the approach to Autumn Equinox - a beautiful, golden time in Avalon when the apple orchards are in full harvest and we celebrate the Great Mother’s abundance. Together, we will create a sacred space akin to the ancient sound Temples of old. We will share the practices that you have been taught online, and co-create ceremonies for Priestess activation and initiation with sacred sound instruments and our voices. Each day of our retreat, we will gather for 2-3 retreat sessions or excursions, with lots of time for integration built in. There will be some gentle walking on two of the retreat days, so you need to have a moderate level of physical fitness. Because there is so much to see and do in Glastonbury, we recommend you book accommodation for at least one day before and after the retreat, for extra exploring of the local area before travelling home.
