The Harmonica, beyond the instrument
How does playing harmonica affect our health and our emotions? How can the harmonica be a tool for self-knowledge, an open door to meditative states, a pathway to happiness?
There is a series of very simple breathing exercises that help us balance our nervous system and find the most optimal state for playing the harmonica. These exercises also allow us to practice techniques that we use when playing the harmonica and that we often neglect.
Working on mindful practices using the harmonica will enhance your
awareness when playing. This workshop is designed to connect you with your breathing through the harmonica. If you already play the harmonica, it will help you improve your tone and technique; if you have never played before, it will reveal a new way of breathing more consciously.
Playing harmonica and mastering breathing techniques is always a win- win!

Harmonica for beginners
The diatonic harmonica, or blues harp, is one of the most intuitive instruments in the world.
We teach the basic techniques to get you started with the best-selling musical instrument ever.
The smart layout of the harmonica allows you to play from the very start; no musical knowledge needed. It’s just about adding rhythm, melody and having fun.
The breathing work required also makes it a very therapeutic instrument!!!
Recommended time: 2 hours

I can offer the workshops in English, French, Portuguese, Spanish and Catalan.
