Hello Handpan Friends,

We’re really excited to share some big news with you today!

After lots of conversations and planning, we’ve decided to join forces and bring our MasterTheHandpan and Handpan Dojo platforms together.

This comes from a shared passion and respect for what we do, and we believe it will help us create something even more special for everyone in the handpan community.

We’ve always valued each other’s contributions to the handpan scene, and we’re excited to see what we can achieve together.

By joining forces, we’re ready to take these dreams further and create something truly special:

  • Bringing Our Strengths Together: By combining our strengths and teams, we’re building a platform that’s even more welcoming and supportive.
  • More Collaborations Ahead: We’re looking forward to working together in new ways and creating more opportunities for collaboration within the community. With our combined resources, we can offer more projects and support to keep the handpan world thriving.
  • A Growing Handpan World: The handpan world is changing and growing, and we want to be a part of that evolution. Our united platform will be a place where you can find great teachers, explore the art of the handpan, and feel supported as part of a vibrant community.

We share the same dreams for the handpan world. We both believe in its power to connect people and inspire creativity.

Thanks for being part of this amazing community.

Your passion keeps us going, and we’re excited to continue this journey with you !

Warmly,

David Kuckhermann

Founder of Handpan Dojo

Mark your calendar. We're launching in...

October 🚀

Get ready for even more content at your fingertips

We will bring together all teachers and courses under one roof, creating a huge library of resources.

Get ready for Great Tools

We’re developing powerful tools to enhance your online course experience.

Get ready for an Amazing Community Hub

Both communities will reunite under the Village, creating a space for more sharing, support, and unforgettable moments.

Get ready for Live Events and Secret Projects

We’re creating space for live events and exciting secret projects that are in the works.

Everything you need to know

What’s Next? Here’s How It All Works 💡

Will I keep access to my courses?

Absolutely. You will keep lifetime access to all your courses.

Will my access to my courses change?

Yes, your courses will be moved to a new platform. Don't worry, the transition will be smooth, and we’ll handle everything for you.

You'll enjoy an upgraded student space where all your courses will be available.

The migration will happen gradually, and you’ll still be able to access your courses on the current platform for a few months.

For now, there’s nothing you need to do. We’ll send you an email in October with instructions. With just a few clicks and a new password, you’ll be all set!

When is the launch?

We’re planning to launch at the end of October.

  • If you’re a student, you’ll receive all the info by email.
  • If you’re not a student yet, sign up here because we’re planning an awesome event with lots of giveaways to celebrate!
Do I need to do anything at this point?

No, at this point, nothing is required from you. You’ll receive an email when everything is ready, explaining everything. Sit back and relax!

What is the MasterTheHandpan Academy?

This is an exciting project that MasterTheHandpan started last year.

The Academy offers a monthly subscription that gives access to ALL MasterTheHandpan courses and, in October, all ALL Handpan Dojo courses as well as all future courses.

In addition to these masterclasses, each member benefits from access to the vibrant and active Village mentioned below.

It means that you will be able to access a staggering number of more than 30 courses and growing with a single subscription.

The best thing is that the price of the Academy will stay the same, even though the number of courses will increase substantially.

Am I required to join the Academy?

Not at all! You can continue learning handpan and enjoy each masterclass from Handpan Dojo and MasterTheHandpan individually.

Reminder: all courses previously purchased on Handpan Dojo come with lifetime access, so you will never lose access to your course.

Individual courses or the Academy?

The courses you already purchased on Handpan Dojo will be transferred to the new platform and will continue to be accessible for life.

The 12 Handpan Dojo courses will still be available for individual purchase.

However, we highly recommend joining the Academy through its subscription: this way, you can fully benefit from all available resources and save money by gaining access to all Handpan Dojo, MasterTheHandpan courses, and any future courses that are added.

What is this Village at MasterTheHandpan?

The Village is a vibrant community of handpan enthusiasts.

This platform was designed to allow you to share and connect with handpan lovers from around the world. Without ads or algorithms, it offers organized spaces, enriching resources, and monthly events such as:

  • MasterTheHappy Hour: Online hangout with David K, David C, and Sylvain Paslier to get to know each other and discuss the world of handpan.
  • Live Workshops: Led by our teachers on specific themes.
  • Challenges: Community challenges to push each other and have good fun!
  • Student Focus: Live sessions where David K, David C, and Dan Mulqueen, plus surprise artists, comment and give feedback on student videos.

The access to this community and these live events is a paid feature that is part of the Academy membership.

However, for all Handpan Dojo students who have already purchased a course, you’ll receive lifetime free access!

How and when can I access the Village?

If you're a current student, you're going to get an amazing gift! To thank you for your support and loyalty, we’ll be giving you lifetime free access to the Village. The Village will be a vibrant community filled with monthly live events and other exciting opportunities.

Your access will be granted once we migrate your account to the new platform, and you'll receive an invitation. For now, there's nothing you need to do—just wait for October!

Will the Handpan Dojo instructors participate in the Academy’s live events?

Yep, we’re teaming up now! 🙂

I’m a member of the Academy—do I need to pay extra to access the Handpan Dojo courses?

Nope! Even though we’re adding 12 new online courses to the Academy’s catalog, we wanted to gift them to you. So, the catalog is expanding at no additional cost. Yep, the Academy is awesome! 🔥

What happens if I subscribe to the Academy and then unsubscribe later?

If you unsubscribe, you will still have lifetime access to any courses you purchased on Handpan Dojo, available in your student space as before your Academy subscription.

I also bought one or more courses on MasterTheHandpan—what happens now?

All the courses you purchased on MasterTheHandpan will automatically be added to your student account. You don’t need to do anything! No more switching between platforms—everything will be in one place, with just one account. 🤩

What will happen to the Handpan Dojo Facebook group?

Aware of Facebook's limitations and the fantastic experience offered by the Village, we would like to gather everyone on this platform/community, including all Handpan Dojo and MasterTheHandpan students.

We will keep the Facebook group open, but we will primarily focus our efforts on the Village to stay consolidated. It will be great to have everyone together, especially since many of you were part of both communities. Together is better! 🙂
