As you lie in a state somewhere between wakefulness and sleep, you feel your breathing relax as the tones of Tingsha cymbals and Koshi chimes appear in your auditory field. There’s absolutely nothing to do but surrender to the experience. This dreamy, floaty atmosphere is what typically awaits you at one of the sessions at Inner Sound, a space for sound baths, sound yoga – sound everything – that opened in Kreuzberg in November 2024. The studio is an offshoot of Har Studio on Urbanstraße, a space for creativity, focussing on Sound Healing, Yoga, Experiences and Pilates, and was started by Har founder Eugenia Har and Yasemin Vollmond from Vollmondyoga. It’s a place for all sorts of practices, from simple gong baths to different combinations of movement, breathwork, music, yoga and dance. Classes include the likes of “Quantum Meditation + Projections with Flor” and “Sunday Natural Crystal Bowls Bath with Yasemin” and there is a regular program of live acoustic and electronic concerts (“Voice Activation with Kimi“, where you are invited to sing with the group). Sessions and concerts aside, the interior of the 252 sqm loft space – located on the fifth floor of an Altbau – is itself a soothing place to be. The minimalist, downlit interior by Benjamin Brenner is all sheer curtains and soft diffused lighting and is so atmospheric in the evening. Step in on a dark grey night and you’ll immediately feel your heart rate fall – and that’s before a single gong is rung…
