The Handpan Temple is slowly becoming what I always dreamed it could be… 🌱 Not just a place to learn the handpan, but a place where people from all walks of life can connect through sound. For the past two years, our workshops in the Byron Bay Australia have brought together complete strangers with different stories, different fears, and different levels of confidence. And every time we sit in the circle, something beautiful happens: We connect. Through playing. Through listening. Through the courage of trying something new together. But we believe this experience should be share with everyone and we want to connect with people from all around the world 🌎 That's why The Handpan Temple has now opened its doors online through this Skool community... so no matter where you are... you can learn, grow and connect with us. 🎵 Here you'll find free resources, tutorials, monthly scale explorations, and soon a complete Level 1 online course. This is your invitation to join the circle. Welcome to The Temple. 🙏

Hello everyone, and thank you for being here. I created this space because I believe music isn't something reserved for musicians. It's something we all carry within us. Whether you already own a handpan or you're simply curious about this beautiful instrument, my hope is that this community becomes a place where you can learn, grow and connect through sound. To begin, I'd love to hear from you: ✨ Where are you joining from? ✨ Have you ever played music before? ✨ What is it about the handpan that called you here? Feel free to introduce yourself below. I'd love to meet each of you. Ale

One of the biggest things I notice when people start learning the handpan is that they often don't really know the instrument they're holding. 🤔 But understanding how the notes relate to each other is where the real magic begins. ✨ So in this series, we'll explore different handpan scales, map out the notes, discover the chords hidden inside, and uncover what makes each instrument unique. EPISODE 1: Today we're starting with the beautiful D Celtic Minor ( Amara): one of the most loved scales in the handpan world. 💙 Whether you already own one or you're simply curious, I hope this helps you connect a little deeper with the instrument. 👇 I'd love to know... What's the scale of your handpan? Or if you don't have one yet... which scale has captured your heart so far? 🎶 Enjoy the journey! 🙏

"How do I know which notes work together?" When I first started playing the handpan over 10 years ago, understanding simple chord relationships completely changed the way I approached the instrument. So I'd love to share one of the resources I use in my workshops. ✨ Free D Kurd Chord Chart✓ ✨Complete note mapping✓ ✨Chords and inversions✓ ✨Beginner friendly✓ Perfect for creating your own music You can download it free here: 👉https://www.thehandpantemple.com.au/product-page/d-kurd-handpan-guide-note-mapping-chord-chart And I will leave you with a question: What's the hardest part about playing chords on the handpan for you?
