ABOUT

Who are we?

Handpan Academy Bristol is a place for handpan players and enthusiasts of all levels and experiences to share the joy of music and sound exploration together.

We opened our doors in 2020 and since then we have offered a range of courses and lessons for those who want to learn and advance their handpan playing skills and explore this beautiful instrument in the very place where it is made. Our studio is nestled in the Meridian Handpans HQ and we are proud and grateful to be using their beautiful instruments during our lessons and courses.

What to expect?

Our aim is to help people (re)connect to music and explore the handpan with joy and ease in an intuitive, yet structured way. We create a relaxed and nourishing environment for learning and keep our groups small (up to 8 people) to ensure everyone receives the guidance they need.

 

All handpans are provided by us and everyone in a group session uses the same scale which means we can easily create music and jam together in harmony! During our courses, we also allow time to explore different scales and sizes of handpans, which is a great way to find the one that is right for you. We also offer the opportunity to have a sneak peek into the making process of the handpan when Duncan, the maker of Meridian Handpans gives a tour around the workshop to all of our beginner students.

 

Last, but not least, all of our teachers are world renowned performing musicians with lots of recorded music available on all streaming platforms to inspire you!
