Frequency 101: From Pythagoras to Planets

Frequency 101: From Pythagoras to Planets
Explore the mathematics, mystery, myths, and meaning behind vibration, with Dr. Arin Levy, DMA. 


What is a frequency, really?
Why do certain intervals feel harmonious?
Is 432 Hz actually different from 440 Hz?
And what does the Earth’s “heartbeat” have to do with sound?


In this immersive 2 hour workshop, we’ll explore the science, history, and cultural narratives surrounding vibration — from ancient philosophy to modern sound healing conversations.


Together, we’ll cover:

• What frequency actually means — and how we experience it
• Pythagoras, the monochord, and the mathematics of musical ratios
• Just intonation vs. equal temperament — and why tuning systems matter
• The science behind the Schumann Resonance
• The 432 Hz vs. 440 Hz debate (with live listening comparisons)
• Planetary frequencies and how cosmic cycles are translated into sound

This workshop is not a lecture — it’s an interactive exploration.


You’ll hear and feel tuning differences in real time.
You’ll see vibration measured visually.
You’ll engage in discussion, guided listening, and sonic demonstration.


Whether you’re a musician, yoga teacher, sound practitioner, or simply curious about how vibration shapes perception, this experience will deepen your understanding of what we mean when we say “everything is frequency.”


Space is limited to 15 participants to keep the environment intimate and discussion-based.


Come curious. Leave attuned.
