Event Details
Devastatingly soulful vocalist, dynamic harmonica master and superlative songwriter Chris O’Leary is among the blues and roots world’s most talented unsung heroes. The award-winning O’Leary—disciple and friend of both The Band’s legendary drummer/vocalist/songwriter Levon Helm and iconic blues harmonica giant James Cotton—has been playing professionally since the 1990s, with five previous solo albums to his credit.
The Marine veteran, ex-Federal police officer, former lead singer of The Barn Burners (featuring Levon Helm on drums) and loving father has walked a hard line from his upstate New York home to stages all over the world. Between his large, athletic frame and his military-style “high and tight” haircut, O’Leary commands attention, singing his indelible original songs with pure, unadulterated soul and playing harmonica with urgent locomotive power. His keenly written songs come directly from his colorful and sometimes harrowing life experiences

Event Details
The Ocala Out of the Darkness Walk will take place on Saturday, October 5th, 2024 at Sholom Park.
The Community Walks, held in hundreds of cities across the country, are the core of the Out of the Darkness movement, which began in 2004. These events give people the courage to open up about their own connections to the cause, and a platform to create a culture that’s smarter about mental health. Friends, family members, neighbors and coworkers walk side-by-side, supporting each other and in memory of those we’ve lost.
Now, more than ever, it’s important to be there for one another and take steps to safeguard our mental health and prevent suicide.

Event Details
This interactive training is centered around the teaching of Sound & Vibrational Therapies. Our intention for this amazing interactive training is to not only share the theory, science, and practices of Sound Healing, but to give you “hands-on” experience.
Level 1: Practitioner of Sound Healing Therapies – We will take you on a journey of healing using Sound and Intention. We will teach you the science and theory of the practice, as well as allow you to experience several varieties of Sound Bath, Sound Meditation, and Yoga Nidra. You will be taught how to lead Sound Baths/Sound Meditations for groups and individuals using Crystal Singing Bowls, Gongs, Chimes, Drums, and other instruments. This certification includes an Introductory Online teaching that will prepare you for our in-person training. This Level 1 will help you find a passion for the practice and teach the many uses of Sound as a Healing Practice.
Level 2: Practitioner of Vibrational Therapies Certification – This level teaches how to use sound therapeutically in private sessions or with specialized groups. We guide you to use Sound & Vibration to align our clients to a more Harmonized State of Being.
In this Level we spend:
5-6 hours working with Tuning Forks through various protocols.
2-3 hours of Drum Protocols learning how they can be used to move energy, ground, and unblock stored trauma and emotions.
8-Hours of hands-on practice using Himalayan Bowls on the Body to bring what we call an “Internal Massage” to the whole-body system.
We approach this practice by embracing the traditions of ancient teachings and combine them with modern research. By working with sound, vibrations and intention we create a modality that is truly Transformational.
All students will receive unlimited lifetime access to our online training portal. The portal contains reference material and recordings. This valuable resource will offer you continuing education in the practice and provide opportunities to stay connected with classmates and peers.
You have the option of taking Level 1 or taking both Levels together as a 4-day double certification.
Once enrolled you will be given access to our “Introduction to Sound Healing Course”, which you are Required to complete before the in-person training date.
Payment plans available:
4-Day $1590 $500 down 3 monthly payments

This sensational quartet is taking the world by storm! With a decade of experience and hailed as “impeccable in every respect” by Classical Guitar Magazine, the Texas Guitar Quartet has become a fan favorite throughout the US, Canada, Central America, Spain, and China. Their daring programs and dazzling virtuosity, combined with joyful music-making, have won over audiences worldwide.
The quartet’s impressive resume includes performances at the Encuentro Internacional de Guitarra in Nicaragua, Victoria Bach Festival, Guitar Foundation of America Convention, and Festival Internacional del Noreste in Mexico, among many others. They’ve even presented a series of concerts in historic cathedrals along the Camino de Santiago in Spain and embarked on a whirlwind 10-city tour throughout China.
TxGQ’s first album, RED, was a tremendous accomplishment that garnered critical acclaim from Guitar International. Their latest album, Icon, featuring the complete 40th Symphony by Mozart, was released in late 2018. The quartet has even been the featured soloist with several orchestras, including the Brazos Valley Symphony Orchestra, Camerata Bach, Corpus Christi Symphony Orchestra, and the Abilene Philharmonic. Experience the unmatched artistry of the Texas Guitar Quartet
