Guitar lessons for all styles (Jazz, Blues, Soul, etc.) in Brussels

From 57.7 C$ /h

- Master in jazz guitar (Royal Conservatory of Brussels/Lemmens Instituut Leuven)
- Additional module in Jazz Arrangement (writing for large ensemble - octet, nonet, big band, etc.)
- 4 years of experience at the Cavell Music School and 2 years at the Maria Boodschap Instituut primary school.

I teach all styles, according to the student's preference, and at all levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced).
My teaching method varies depending on the style and your desires. I see learning the instrument along three lines: accompaniment, musical understanding and improvisation. I try to give the student a solid foundation so that he can become independent as quickly as possible and can learn pieces by himself or accompany himself.

Many "theoretical" courses are available in videos and offered after the course (different scales, chords etc...).

85.73 C$ /h

This course is aimed at those wishing to learn the art of musical arrangement. How to make a composition richer? What elements should you add to your piece to create a surprise effect? Which agreements are interchangeable or how can you enrich them?

Also, I teach jazz arranging (writing for octet, nonet, big band) and writing for several instruments. How to compose effective voicings for several blowers, how to write an effective bass line etc...!

The course that I propose is BILINGUAL FRENCH / ENGLISH, as well as 2 BOOKS.

Age and musical taste are not restrictive when in the program, you can with qualitative daily work (not quantitative) quickly observe your progress.

Here the pleasure of playing music is put forward.

The kind of music you love most will be the focus of the course, their codes and secrets will be the focus of our study, that's what I want to share with you.

We can do technical lessons and simply learn together how to play one or more songs of your choice or mine, enrich your game with this approach and your repertoire!

(For example, We can re-arrange the pieces and make them more original by approaching the system (CAGED), and enriching their chords, resulting in new positions, new techniques and new sounds, using arpeggio techniques rather than strumming for 4-chord pieces, voicing and fingerstyle techniques, in short, expanding the instrument's playing fields and playing skills to keep progressing in your game and improve your rehearsals ...)

If you make a request, this program is obviously accompanied by the pleasure of learning more in theory and being able to directly apply new knowledge on its instrument and identify its common or rare use in the pieces discussed in class.

In this case, the theory is translated to be accessible to anyone, both for those who are connoisseurs and for those who discover everything from absolute zero.
The exercises, songs, and theoretical explanations offered throughout the program are organized in an order of progressive difficulty.

I wrote and produced 2 books of my method to learn the guitar and the music, that I sell to accompany my course and your apprenticeship in the best conditions and so that you can continue the course even at home and to review etc ... .
There is ONE BOOK OF COURSES containing all the theoretical and practical program of the year, as well as a BOOK OF EXERCISE on the ranges and the modes that you can obtain directly.

I graduated from the Conservatoire de Nice CNRR (France) in jazz guitar.
I studied there for seven years with renowned professors such as Jean Paul Ceccarelli (Sting), Pierre Bertrand, Robert Persi or Philippe Petit.
My teaching method is flexible and I adapt it to the needs and desires of the student.
We will discuss the technical work on the instrument, the knowledge of the neck and chords and the rhythm. With or without solfege.
The goal is to provide the student with the necessary tools so that he can continue learning by himself at home.

ENGLISH LOWER
I'm at ease with students, having already taught music in a foster for teenagers. I've been playing since I was 9, I have toured with numerous groups in Europe, was educated in music theory at the Geneva Conservatory and obtained a diploma in music at the College of Geneva.

Music being a pleasure, I adapt the lesson to the desire of the students, whether it is singing with the guitar or being a guitar hero. Willing to create interest in the guitar or the banjo, I stand for a pleasure to play.

FRENCH
I have easy contact with the students, having already taught music in a youth center. I have been playing since I was 9, have toured with numerous groups, graduated in music theory at the Geneva Conservatory and obtained a maturity in music at the College of Geneva.

The music being a pleasure, I adapt the course to the desires of the students, whether it be singing with the guitar or being a solo guitarist. In the desire to create interest in the guitar or the banjo, I advocate the pleasure of playing.

Graduated in cello in Barcelona, finishing my master in historical cello at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels. Passionate cellist with a lot of experience in performance and education. I specialize in historically informed music, so I try to understand the context around each music I play, so we enter into a dialogue between current events and the era in which the music was created. In my classes we will learn the basic technique of the cello but also we will look together for what we want to express with the music we make, and techniques more adapted to the era.

My course is based first on you.
I like developing with you a program adapted to your features, your difficulties as well as your goal.
It is aimed at everyone, children and adults, complete beginners and more experienced musicians looking for advice, a method to keep developing I've been approaching and searching.

Autonomy, creativity, curiosity and listening are the main 4 words for me!

I can teach you drums in many styles (rock, funk, jazz, shuffle, pop, linear, world music, songs on demand) and in its many forms AND of course music theory, which can be integrated into the course if necessary, but also be the subject of a private lesson for students who wish support for their courses in an academy or at the Conservatory. This will help you to read music scores and nail sight reading over time!

Hi, I'm Ally. I don't just teach people how to play songs; I develop independent musicians who truly understand their instrument. With over 20 years of professional experience and a decade as a senior teacher, I’ve helped hundreds of beginners move past the "stuck" phase.

In this class, we move at your pace in a relaxed, supportive environment. You’ll learn technical development and fretboard visualization through a structured, outcome-driven approach. Every lesson comes with a clear, custom-engineered practice plan so you know exactly what to do between sessions. My goal is to give you the tools you need so that eventually, you won't need a teacher at all.
