Private hire in brief
Hiring the studio privately means booking the space for your group alone (up to 8 people) for a sound therapy session of around two hours. A birthday, a hen do, a reunion with friends, a family occasion: you decide what it's for, we take care of the setting. It's the most intimate group format, beyond the session for two, and more enveloping than a group sound bath open to the public. At Résonance it starts at €350, at 26 rue de Bassano, in the 16th, a short walk from Trocadéro.

How it runs
What happens in a privately hired session?
Your group arrives together, and the studio is already yours. There's time to settle in: the mats are laid out, the blankets ready, and the room is quiet from the moment you come through the door. After a welcome and a few words about what's coming, everyone lies down and the immersion begins: the gong, the bowls, the chimes, while you let yourselves be carried, side by side, but each in your own bubble.
The two-hour format leaves room to talk, before and after. That's what separates private hire from a one-to-one private session: here it's the shared experience that makes the memory. For a group beyond eight, or a session at your own venue, see the corporate sessions offer.
- Welcoming the group. The studio is already yours: mats laid out, blankets ready, the room quiet.
- Immersion. Gong, bowls and chimes, side by side, but each in your own bubble.

The neighbourhood
Hiring a studio in the 16th arrondissement
The studio is at 26 rue de Bassano, on the border of the 16th and the 8th, between place Victor Hugo and the Champs-Élysées. It's an easy meeting point for a group: central, quiet, and a few minutes from the big avenues. A birthday or a hen do that begins with two hours of sound and silence, in this setting, lands rather differently from another dinner.
You can walk over from Trocadéro and Passy, come by metro to George V (line 1), Iéna or Alma-Marceau (line 9), or on the RER A to Charles-de-Gaulle–Étoile, useful when the group is coming from all over Paris. Afterwards, the Arc de Triomphe and the Champs-Élysées are a short walk away if you want to carry the evening on. Access details are on the studio page; to arrange your date, go through the contact page.
