Director
and co-founder of both The Association of Sound Therapy and Harmonic Studies (Spain)
and the International Association of Sound Therapy, Nestor is an
internationally acclaimed Sound Therapist and overtone singer. He is author of
the acclaimed guidebook on overtone singing with CD “Overtone Chant-the
Practical Guide”
Since 1995,
Nestor has explored and practiced the ancient art of overtone singing, also
referred to as vocal harmonics, with particular attention to its therapeutic
and meditational uses. An experienced teacher, he has now taught thousands of
people the techniques of overtone singing and Sound Healing on 5 continents. He
is among few in the western world to master the “Deep Voice” overtone chanting
employed by Tibetan monks and Tuvan and Mongolian singers, which enables him to
sing up to four simultaneous notes, with a range of 5 octaves.
Together with his wife and partner in Sound,
Michele Averard, Nestor has facilitated one of the longest-running Sound
Therapy Diploma Training courses in Europe, designed to empower participants to
practice as Sound Therapists and incorporate sound healing into their other
therapeutic modalities. Michele and Nestor together developed this
well-balanced and all-round training in voice and other sound healing tools and
instruments.
Nestor facilitates
regular courses on sound healing, overtone singing and sound as a tool for
personal and planetary transformation in English and Spanish,. Many of his
courses are held in The Dome Center in Spain. The Dome is a large hemispheric
structure especially designed by Nestor and Michele, for its spectacular
acoustics that amplify the subtle tones of the voice and acoustic instruments.
He has been interviewed many times on television, radio and in the press in the countries where he presently works, as an expert on Sound Therapy. He has also written articles in English and Spanish on Sound Therapy which have been published in many of the countries he regularly visits. Nestor has frequently been invited to participate in Sound Healing Conferences, both live and online.
Nestor is an eloquent
and charismatic speaker and teacher, able to express complex concepts in easily
understood terms, with plenty of humour, and is no stranger to large audiences. He is thoroughly versed in the science and practice of Sound as a
healing modality.
