My name is Ibán and I have a higher musical studies diploma in classical guitar, specialized training in electric guitar and a master's degree in secondary education.

My work program is simple and very organized. We will work on the most important aspects: scales, chords, technique, improvisation, harmony, etc. and we will play many songs or pieces (with music theory or tablature) of different styles: Classical, Blues, Rock, Pop, Heavy, Chanson, 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.

If you want to discover the guitar or improve your skills, this class is for you! Learn while having fun or pushing your limits! I agree with all tastes (folk, rock, jazz, etc ...) and I adapt to all the rhythms of learning (discovery or practice).

My goal is to teach you the guitar by putting a point of honor to the pleasure of playing. The learning of an instrument should not be done in the constraint, but in the good mood and the love for the music.

Guitarist in the bands New Age of French Stone and Stella & TChang. Congratulation of the jury to the final examination of CIAM Bordeaux. Great experience of the current music scene. Guitar teacher for over 5 years.

I am a self taught guitarist and have been playing guitar for 18 years. For 15 years I have also played the drums, which included 5 years of lessons with highly advanced teachers.

I teach in a relaxed and friendly way. It's important for students to enjoy learning the instrument, especially in the early stages.

I have performed guitar & drums professionally for the past 5 years, all across Europe. These include performances such as Vooruit (Gent), AB (Brussels), Botanique (Brussels), Cirque Royale (Brussels).

I have been studying guitar since 1999. During these years I have played different guitar styles and guitar types. (classical, flamenco, electric, bass, ukulele).
I studied at music conservatory until 2009 and then continued learning on my own.
I have my own learning method adapted to the objectives of each person. I have been a teacher in Barcelona and people have always been satisfied with their achievements.
I speak English, French, Italian and Spanish although music is a universal language :)

Posture and comfort with the instrument are the foundation for playing the guitar. I often make the connection with other musical instruments such as percussion, wind instruments and singing.

Separating and understanding the roles of the two hands is another important step in the course. One hand plays the rhythm and the other plays the notes on the fretboard. There are many exercises to develop the knowledge and skills of both hands.

Looking to grow as a guitarist and musician? Whether you’re starting out, or stuck beneath a musical “glass ceiling”, I offer fully personalized lessons mainly for intermediate but also to beginner level guitarists. I will be happy to discuss your or your child's needs and craft a course with you!

If you’re an intermediate player, here’s the steps:

- We’ll find out your level and current blocking points ⚠️
- We’ll carve a path together, targeting your weak spots (do you miss scales? modes? extended chords? arrangement theory? melodic development? and countless more)
- We’ll create material together, based on your ideas or ideas that I will provide you ✏️
- You’ll become an all-around player that can create ideas, express them clearly, and elaborate them tastefully, while improvising in real-time. 🤘

If you’re a beginner player of any age:

- We’ll figure out your vision (what do you listen to, and what would you like to sound like)
- We’ll start with basic but engaging material, so that you reach base musicality as fast as possible. You’d be surprised how creative you can become with a couple of constraints and a bit of engagement!
- We’ll slowly introduce the theory that sits behind your vision, the material, and your playing
- You’ll develop intuition on the instrument and fluid playing in your preferred genre: The world is now your oyster 🤘
