Cave of the Winds Sound Bath - 8/8 Lion's Gate Portal in the Heart of the Earth
Presented by Singing Bowls of the Rockies at Cave of the Winds Manitou Springs, CO
On this rare night—when the full moon casts its radiant energy across the Earth—you’re invited deep underground for a sound bath unlike any other. Beneath ancient rock formations sculpted over millions of years, let the vibrations of Tibetan and Crystal Singing Bowls, Gongs, Native American Flute, Guitar, Hand Pan, and more wash over you and carry you into stillness. For generations, Cave of the Winds has been honored as a sacred place of energy and transformation. The Apache and Ute peoples believed the Great Spirit of the Wind lived within these walls—and now, through sound, you’re invited to connect with that ancient energy in a new and healing way. Dr. Gigi Turner, PsyD, founder and owner of Singing Bowls of the Rockies, has created Colorado Springs' premier sound bath sanctuary. Formerly a psychology professor and psychotherapist, she combines her deep understanding of the mind with the healing power of sound. With over a decade of experience and an extensive collection of more than 100 singing bowls, Gigi has guided thousands of participants through immersive and restorative sound journeys. Her expertise lies in crafting deeply soothing experiences that calm the nervous system, promote profound relaxation, and inspire inner healing. Steve Manzo is a multi-instrumentalist with a passion for sound and its healing potential. Influenced by his own experiences with sound baths, Steve brings a unique musical perspective to each session, offering layers of meditative frequencies. Currently studying film and game scoring, his expertise in composition and music production allows him to craft immersive…

We'll also have our popular 4th of July concert on the Monday before the holiday, plus several other fun themes. Then we'll close out with your favorite tunes from this year with the 2025 People's Choice concert on August 11! As always, we'll be accepting donations for votes for your favorite pieces during the first 8 concerts. Then we'll play the top vote getters at our final concert of the summer. And of course, we are doing our weekly Conductor Auction where our audience members get the opportunity to bid on the conductor's baton. One lucky winner each will win the chance to direct the band performing a Sousa march--no experience required (we promise to make you look good)! Or, the winner can award the baton to a "stuckee" of their choosing! The proceeds from the auction and voting help us to pay for our expenses, such as new music, insurance and rental fees.* Cash and check donations are both accepted, as well as digitally through our PayPal form on our website!
