Luisa Henz is a Handpan musician based in Vancouver. Her spaceship looking instrument, the Handpan, captures curiosity in all ages. With her rhythmic and melodic patterns, she creates meditative states and invites listeners to a quiet place in their hearts and minds. Her work warps space and time as she plays with tempo, dynamics and wonder struck sounds. Watch as her fingertips soar through the air and rattle on her Handpan at the speed of light. She is a storyteller at heart and her language of self reflection is sound.
Luisa's playful spirit shines through in her compositions and her workshops might just ignite your playful spirit too!

"The workshop was really good. It had variety and intention. I enjoyed the quick explanation behind the theory. It's the first time I have experienced a scent activity and I can say it was pretty cool how it evokes so many memories and how the mind goes instantly to different places. I wish the workshop was longer and we could have done more."
""Luisa speaks with clear imagery, peaceful words and a welcoming demeanour, and her method evokes a calming, positive engagement. Her storytelling and tasks deeply rooted in history and worldly practices are fascinating and inclusive."
"Luisa is a very knowledge, passionate and caring individual. I like her style of delivering the workshop: soothing, calming and open-minded. It was great being immersed in this nurturing environment, experiencing, reflecting, creating and making so many connections with my life stories under her gentle guidance! Thank you, Luisa!"
"Luisa has such a comforting and calming presence, while being engaging and informational. She is extremely knowledgeable about her areas of expertise, and creates such a safe, mindful, and easy space to learn, relax, and be creative in!"
