Vickie Dodd, director of SoundBody Productions, is an internationally known pioneer in the field of sound as bodywork. She is an Aston-Kinetic teacher, author, poet, nutritionist, herbalist, workshop leader, and musician. She started using sound as a healing modality in her work with her clients nearly 50 years ago, and has trained with many masterful teachers in the art of body therapies and spiritual purification tools.

Vickie also incorporates serious study and exploration into the curative aspects of sound, color, and movement in her work. She designed a system that integrates emotional memories within the physical body, and facilitates the release of long-held emotional distress. She's consulted with organizations and professional groups, assisting them to address specific issues they encounter in their work and life responsibilities.

Vickie has organized workshops, conferences, and residential training for several decades. She's a performer of sacred sound, has toured with Joe Fonda's jazz group in Europe and the U.S., and has recorded with avant-garde jazz great Anthony Braxton. She's had the privilege of working with many fine musicians.

In addition to her new book, The Audible Body, she's the author of Tuning The Blues To Gold: Soundprints, and has several recordings available. She lives in Port Angeles, Washington, and teaches in Europe, South America, and many locations around the U.S.
