About The Sound Space

Our Mission Statement - Expanding Collective Consciousness Through Raising Positive Vibrations

​

Our Journey

Founded in April 2021, The Sound Space emerged as the vision of Avalon Starling, a passionate sound therapist, percussionist, and holistic health advocate. Avalon's journey began with the opening of the first Sound Space Meditation Studio in Anchorage. Here, she pioneered her practice as a sound therapist and curated a unique space that allowed her creativity to flourish. As Avalon's journey unfolded, she moved further north, leading to the closure of the Anchorage location. Undeterred, she embarked on a year-long journey, continuing her practice of sound therapy and nurturing her dream of hosting a spiritual retreat in the heart of Alaska. In August 2023, this dream materialized into the first Annual Wellness Weekend — a three-day event featuring ecstatic dance, sound healing, yoga, and meditation. 

​

The Birth of The Wellness Collective

During that transformative summer, Avalon collaborated with yoga instructor Alice, introducing sound baths to yoga classes. This collaboration sparked the vision of creating a collective space dedicated to holistic well-being in Alaska. The idea crystallized into The Wellness Collective, a sacred space where practitioners could unite to serve the community.

​

In October 2023, we opened our new location, a physical manifestation of our commitment to creating a sacred haven for holistic health practitioners in Alaska. This marks the next chapter in our journey, as we eagerly anticipate the projects and collaborations that lie ahead.

​

The Sound Space and The Wellness Collective are fueled by a shared passion for holistic well-being and a commitment to creating a transformative space for the Alaskan community. We are excited about the upcoming projects we have planned and the opportunities to serve and support you on your journey to wellness.
