Bio

Luisa encountered the Handpan for the first time in 2016, an experience that would shape the next decade of her musical path. She has since designed and facilitated over 300+ mindful music programs for school classrooms K-12. In her workshop she invites participants into the tranquil world of Handpan melodies, capturing the instrument’s imaginative emotional and expressive potential.
Luisa's dedication to making music accessible to all abilities has lead her to working in special needs programs, elderly care, community services, exploring music as a tool to cultivate deeper listening as a pathway to presence. She brings her embodied understanding into her teaching, creating a supportive and inspiring space where students can grow their musical understanding of this unique instrument and world percussion.
In Luisa's Handpan workshops she shares practical, easy-to-learn techniques that allow you to begin playing melodies and rhythms right away. She believes that everyone is musical, and that learning the Handpan is not only about playing an instrument, but about cultivating sensitivity, and attunement to ourselves and others...strengthening essential skills for everyday life.
