More experienced guitarist and wish to develop new skills and learn more about gear and guitars? With a bit of patience and an open mind, it's easy to get a grasp on the guitar!

Music Styles

Explore feeling, groove, sound, melody and chordes in your favourite music style. If you want to learn and get better in a specific genre such as Jazz, Pop, Rock, Blues, Gospel, Soul or Hip-hop. You've come to the right place!

Beginners Children - Adults

One of the first things you'll learn is a relaxed way to hold your instrument and where to place your fingers on the strings. We want to be sure that the notes clearly ring out. Get started with essenial chords and your first tunes. Let's have fun!

More experienced

While it's relatively easy to get a few jazz chords under your fingers, jazz guitar can get overwhelming if you don't know where to start learning or what to practise. This is where I come in!

What can you expect?

• technical studies,
• Jazz harmony,
• pentatonic scales
• several plectrum techniques,
• hybrid picking,
• bending
• strumming,
• dynamics,
• improvisation,
• solos, comping,
• use of software
• gear/ effects / pedals

Expand your musicality with songs and jazz tunes, suited to your current level and interests. With exercises for your left hand you will learn how to make fluid transitions and also how to grab chords in a proper way, find your own sound on the instrument and master single lines, chords, and both, at the same time!

Gear and your guitar

You can compliment your own sound with stuff like amplifiers, picks, and pedals. Gadgets that help you achieve the different textures and effects you hear in your favourite music
