Who We Are
We are friends, artists, and facilitators who come together to hold space by the ocean. Each of us brings a piece of the circle, but it is the community that makes it whole.
About Vasi
I never set out to create something like Sound Waves. For most of my life I was just searching, for belonging, for meaning, for a place where I could breathe and feel at home in myself.
My path took me from Romania to Chicago and eventually to Miami Beach. Along the way I tried many things, running businesses, hosting dinners, chasing success. But underneath it all was a longing to be with people in a way that felt real.
Out of that longing Sound Waves was born. Not from a plan but from a need, my own need for presence, connection, and honesty. For nights where the masks could drop, where joy and pain could sit side by side, where music and silence could hold us in a way words cannot.
I do not see myself as a teacher or a leader. I see myself as someone walking the same path, holding space for others to remember what I am still learning to remember myself: that beneath all the illusions of time, separation, judgment, and control, we already belong.
