Speaker: Ulla Suokko

New York City-based Ulla Suokko is an internationally acclaimed concert flutist, performing artist, Reiki master, sound healer and teacher who combines music with storytelling in a very unique fashion.

She keeps expanding her repertory and herself as an artist, as well as her already extensive knowledge of both ancient and contemporary healing techniques. She is committed to serve as an instrument of peace, joy, beauty, healing and empowerment.
Her performance is an intimate, inspiring, uplifting and thought provoking adventure that is not to be missed.

Ulla performs and teaches all over the world inviting us all to embrace the truth of our being and the truth of our expression.

An advocate of the healing power of music, Dr. Suokko was one of the musicians who brought music to the relief workers and to the families of the victims of the WTC tragedy. She played over 40 concerts in St. Paul's Chapel at ground zero. She also brings concerts to hospitals, nursing homes, children's advocacy centers and into the homes of hospice-care patients. Complementing her musical work, she gives workshops on peak performance, stress release, relaxation techniques, listening, communicating, and improvisation, as well as on the healing and transformational power of music. Her improvised, soothing solo flute CD, Bridge of Light, is an invocation for peace, balance, harmony and love.

Always a student, Dr. Suokko keeps expanding her knowledge and experience of the healing arts, exploring with equal thirst the ancient traditions of the world and the contemporary research of vibrational and energy medicine. Her interests range from shamanism to quantum physics.

She holds a Doctor of Musical Arts degree from The Juilliard School.
