Shakuhachi 101

Learn the background and basics of Shakuhachi, the Japanese traditional Bamboo flute used for meditation and healing.

The curriculum relates to the traditional solo meditation songs of the Shakuhachi dating back to the 12th century and the more current orchestral songs of the Imperial Court of Japan, as well as the post modern compositions for Shakuhachi from the 20th Century onwards. Lessons are available for absolute beginners and masters. Lessons can be taught in English, French, Arabic, and Japanese. Plastic student-shakuhachi instruments can be purchased directly from Amazon or myself and more advanced authentic bamboo Shakuhachi can be purchased from myself, the maker.
