Ancient Oriental Music Therapy by Andrea Azize Guvenç

Guide: Andrea Azize Guvenç

I was born in Essen, Germany in 1957 and grew up there.

I am an occupational therapist and worked for many years in Germany and Austria in different institutions and my own practice.

In 1994 I met Dr. Güvenç with the Ancient Oriental Music & Movement Therapy (AOM), which was embedded in an open, far-thinking and practicing Sufism. Both impressed me so much that I did the AOM training and turned to spiritual practices.

For the group Tümata (Turkish music in research and presentation) I work internationally as an organizer, singer and dancer.
