About Ruth

Ruth leads beautifully restorative Sound Bath sessions at the Centre, together with a monthly Drum Circle. 

She is Director of the Therapeutic Sound Association and Course Manager at The British Academy of Sound Therapy (BAST).

Ruth works across Sussex as part of Dao Natural Health where she uses various approaches to sound healing, Tai Chi and Qigong on a 1:1 basis, which she combines with leading groups and being a musician and artist. 

Ruth was first introduced to the martial art of Judo at aged 8 and began practising Yoga and learning about energy (Qi) and its health benefits in 1994. She has been practising and studying Tai Chi and Qigong intensely since 2006. Her interest in these subjects inspired her to qualify as a Complementary Therapist and a Tai Chi Qigong Health Instructor.

Ruth has been passionate about nature and the outdoors from a very young age and has a deep appreciation for the simple things in life. Ruth also enjoys playing many musical instruments and is an artist specialising in stained glass at Blue Skies Glass Studio.
