MEET YOUR INSTRUCTORS

Elijah Ray and Marya Stark have each walked a unique path to discovering the practical and mystical benefits of sound in our lives. Each time their paths have crossed they have co-created music, exchanged ideas and created something new.  

These master sound makers are joining forces yet again to bring you an immersive experience of their collective storytelling and song writing skills, vocal techniques, spiritual practices, archetypal landscapes and sound science to guide you to your truest expression through sound. 

Marya Stark is a vocalist, composer, performer, and multi-instrumentalist. She is a discoverer of archetypes, a storyteller, bard, and muse. Marya has a deep love of myth, psyche, and spirit. She currently integrates these studies through producing esoteric concept albums, visual media and immersive mythic storytelling performance experiences. Her music has been featured on NPR, licensed for film, and has recently caught fire in the global sisterhood healing movement, with her anthemic womb healing songs being sung by thousands of women around the world.  

As a part of her bardic vocation, Marya tends an online learning space, Temple Of The Muse, where she facilitates workshops, courses, intimate group journeys and trainings. These offerings are the integration of nearly two decades of practice as a Music Therapist, Medical Qigong Therapist, Independent Artist + Transformational Guide. Marya brings perspectives from studies in Buddhism, Energetic Psychology, the Development of the Psyche, Relational Health and Daoist Energy Cultivation.
