MetaHang Introductory Seminar
An Intuitive & Ergonomic Technique for Hang & Handpans

Available at metahang.teachable.com/p/introductory-seminar

Hosted by Laura Inserra, during this seminar we will look at the history of the Hang and its 20 years of evolution, we will explore its architecture and enchanting musicality, and we will learn the basics of the MetaHang Technique.

Intuitive, ergonomic, and creative, this unique technique is the development of 18 years of Laura performing and teaching Hang and handpans internationally.

Designed to minimize physical effort and tension, MetaHang maximizes efficiency and flow. In this seminar you will learn how to play the Hang and the handpans, build a musician mind, express yourself musically, and enjoy the rhythm in your body.


This seminar will also introduce you to the Structured Improvisation Technique - allowing you to play music while practicing, to compose while improvising, and to release tension while immersing your body in music.
