Déjà 3 ans que j’enseigne le handpan. Au début, une personne. Puis deux. Puis des groupes de 3, 4, 5… Jusqu’à accueillir aujourd’hui des groupes jusqu’à 22 personnes lors de workshops et retraites de 3 à 7 jours consécutifs, en France dans diverses régions et en Allemagne, bientôt en Suisse et aux Pays-bas.
Une aventure qui me dépasse, et la distance ne m’arrête pas. Je vis maintenant en Allemagne, mais je parcours des milliers de kilomètres simplement pour venir à votre rencontre et organiser mes stages, afin de vous partager et de vous enseigner ma passion, un instrument pas comme les autres, capable de transformer une vie, d’apporter ce petit quelque chose qui manque à notre bien être.
Avant le handpan, j’organisais déjà des retraites autour du bien-être et du développement personnel. Transmettre a toujours été au cœur de ma vie : partager ce qui m’a aidé, ce qui m’aligne, ce qui m’ouvre.
Aujourd’hui, j’aime par dessus tout cette étincelle dans les yeux de mes élèves quand leurs premières mélodies naissent et qu’elles-ils réalisent à quel point le handpan est accessible.
Je suis fier du chemin parcouru, mais par dessus tout, profondément reconnaissant. Merci pour votre confiance, pour la chance de vous accompagner, pour me permettre de vivre de ma passion.
Ce n’est pas toujours simple et de tout repos, loin de là, vous n’imaginez pas tout le travail, le temps et l’énergie qui est déployée en dehors de ce que vous voyez sur les réseaux sociaux… mais c’est magnifique, et cela nourrit mon cœur chaque jour ❤️
Merci 🫂

Handpans could become ILLEGAL - help us! We want to play more and more of these massive jams at our @soundsculpturehandpan festivals in Grube Louise 😍
We already collected 30.000€ with the campaign, can we the goal together to keep up the legal defense?
The background:
After years of legal pressure, makers and musicians from around the world are still free to build and play handpans — but that freedom is hanging by a thread:
The future of the handpan is at stake.
For over five years, makers and players from around the world have fought a legal battle to protect the freedom to build and play handpans.
In 2020, PANArt, creator of the original Hang®, claimed copyright over four basic features found in nearly every handpan — the lense shape, the central dome (Ding), the bottom port (Gu), and the circular arrangement of tone fields.
If successful, this would restrict or even end handpan making entirely.
Approaches of personal communication and a search for a bi-lateral understanding were unfortunately unsuccessful.
Countless handpan makers and shops were targeted by PANArt and to defend the community, we formed Handpan Community United (HCU).
After years of scientific work, legal arguments, hearings and over €1.1 million in legal costs, the court in Bern ruled that the Hang® is a “work of art”, granting a copyright for the Hang®. This decision is not final, though. Now, the next phase is underway and it will decide if handpans can remain free.
We work tirelessly to make sure we have the best arguments on our side. This fight isn’t over, and we stay hopeful that the court will rule in our favor and narrow a possible scope of protection of the Hang® as small as possible to keep the Handpan alive.
The parties involved are the ones on the frontline but the whole community, every maker, musician and listener will be impacted by the outcome of this case. We can no longer carry this alone. We need your help.
Please donate and share this campaign to help us protect the freedom, creativity, and love that the handpan stands for.”

Together, we can keep the sound of the handpan alive for generations to come.

En 2001, le Hang® de PANArt a lancé un mouvement mondial.
Des centaines de créateurs ont ensuite commencé à développer les handpans et ont fait naître une communauté vibrante et libre.
Mais en 2020, cette liberté a été menacée :
PANArt a soudainement affirmé que tous les handpans violaient leurs droits d’auteur et a engagé des poursuites à travers l’Europe.
Des ateliers ont été menacés, des instruments saisis.
Pour défendre notre art, Handpan Community United (HCU) s’est formé.
Depuis 5 ans, nous résistons en justice, un combat coûteux, intense, essentiel, pour que le handpan reste libre.
Les prochaines audiences en Suisse pourraient décider de son avenir.
👉🏼 Pour comprendre toute l’histoire et soutenir ensemble la liberté de créer, de jouer et de partager le handpan : rejoin la campagne de crowdfunding et donne ce que tu peux, chaque donation compte 🙏🏼 (le lien est dans ma bio et en story) ❤️
👉🏼 Partage ce réel pour que le monde soit au courant de ce qu’il se passe et puisse aussi participer à ce combat 🌪️
✊🏼 Ensemble nous sauverons le Handpan 🫂
Avec Amour & Passion,
Warren 🌻🌿

the handpan may become illegal, but we can still prevent this to happen.
for over five years, a legal battle has been unfolding that could decide the future of our instrument. the company that created the original hang® claims copyright over the handpan’s basic shape - its dome, layout, and even its circular form.
if they succeed, makers around the world could lose the right to build or sell handpans entirely.
we tried to find a peaceful and respectful solution with the other party - through open dialogue and mutual understanding. unfortunately, those efforts were not successful, leaving us no choice but to continue this fight in court to save the handpan as we know it.
after years of hearings, research and over €1.1 million in legal costs, the final decision is approaching.
we created a crowdfunding to protect the freedom of the handpan. every contribution helps us continue the legal fight, cover essential costs and keep this instrument - and the creativity it inspires - alive for generations to come.
this is bigger than an instrument. it’s about protecting creativity, connection, and the sound that heals.
we can’t do this alone - we need your help to keep the handpan alive.

What a beautiful day it was 💫 Our very first Malte Marten Method Handpan School opened its doors in Bochum, guided with so much heart by our certified teachers @warren_shanti and @hangala_music from @the_handpan_paradise.
It was a day full of connection, music, and inspiration. People meeting for the first time, sharing sounds, exploring the space, and simply enjoying the spirit of the handpan community.
We’re deeply grateful to everyone who came by, to our teachers and community members for their support, and to all the new faces who are just beginning their journey with the handpan. ✨
This marks an important step for us and we’re excited to guide and support more teachers in opening their own MMM Handpan Schools in the future. Here’s to growing, learning, and sharing music together. 💛
If you’ve ever dreamed of teaching the handpan yourself, the next round of our Teacher Training is starting soon. Learn more and book your Discovery Call via the link in bio. 🔗
