From June 3 to 10, we at Hess Sound had the exciting opportunity to open our first pop-up store in Berlin. For one week, Auguststraße in Berlin Mitte became a place of sounds and encounters. People from all over Berlin as well as from the immediate neighborhood had the opportunity to stop by and get to know our fascinating Peter Hess® Singing Bowls.
This project was a unique undertaking for our team. We worked hard to create a welcoming and inspiring atmosphere where visitors could explore the world of Singing Bowls . We were delighted that both sound enthusiasts who were already familiar with our products and people who came into contact with Singing Bowls for the first time found their way to us.
Great interest in sound workshops
In the pop-up store, visitors had the opportunity to try out our Singing Bowls and learn about the differences between them. It was wonderful to see how they were enchanted by the gentle vibrations and soothing sounds of Singing Bowls . Our evening sound workshops were also met with great interest and the participants were able to experience the many ways in which Singing Bowls can be used in different contexts. We would like to take this opportunity to express our special thanks to the Peter Hess® Institute Regional Group Berlin/Brandenburg, who supported us with the workshops.
While Hess Sound owner Jana Hess presented sound elements in beauty and wellness, Barbara Senf showed how Singing Bowls can be used practically in everyday life. Janina Picard gave an exciting Breath & Sound workshop in English. Eva-Maria Hähnel and Anita Böttcher demonstrated how beginners can get started with sound. Ramona Bannert covered the topic of fantasy journeys with sound and Janine Gabelmann introduced the world of sound yoga. Last but not least, Norbert Kasprowski demonstrated how Singing Bowls can be used for self-care.
"This week was a special experience for me and our team," says Jana Hess. "It was great to get in touch with Berliners and hear about their experiences with Singing Bowls so far. We learned a lot from this and are already looking forward to our next pop-up store!"
Sound at INNOCOS Berlin
INNOCOS Berlin took place at the same time as our pop-up store. Hess Sound also gave a workshop on sound yoga there under the direction of Janine Gabelmann, which met with a great response. The beauty fair provided an additional platform to share the fascination and enthusiasm that people feel for Singing Bowls and the use of sound.
We look forward to more pop-up stores!
Overall, our pop-up store in Berlin was a complete success. We are grateful for the opportunity to reach so many people with our Singing Bowls . The encounters and conversations have inspired and encouraged us to continue offering high-quality sound instruments and to spread the positive effects of sound around the world.
We would like to thank all visitors, supporters and participants. Without you, this experience would not have been possible. Let's bring sound into our lives together and look forward to future pop-up stores and inspiring encounters!
