I am passionate about teaching guitar! Over the last 10 years I have been teaching students from ages 7-70 from complete beginners to advanced players with one thing in common - their wish to play guitar more comfortably and have fun while doing it!

I am a classical guitarist with a background in pedagogy, psychology and physiotherapy, my approach - methodical.
While working on the things you want to improve and learn I will also help you develop a deep understanding of the theory and principles that music is built upon. Our lessons will be exploratory and imaginative whilst also underpinned by technical knowledge so that you can enjoy playing comfortably and without pain.

My aim is to get you to where you want to be playing guitar, whether that be for friends at New Year or on the stage at Carnegie Hall!

The string bass or double bass is the biggest instrument of the orchestra.
It is a long journey full of emotion and with a challenging repertoire. Many groups are currently searching for members who have some proficiency and lots of things to do.

This lesson is especially for the hobby-musician (in the making). My goal is to teach the student how to play in playing the Saxophone, be it in classical music, pop, jazz, ... of my students, I expect them to have fun playing music and that they show it by doing their best without having to be a rut to play the instrument.

The flute it’s a quite complex instrument, where the challenge is to find the balance between all the parameter, such as posture(in order to learn how to play fast passage), lips and everything concerning breathing technique(in order to get the best clear and powerful sound).
It’ my job to guide the student in order to let him/her find that stability in order to get best results possible.

20 year old student in Leuven who likes to help people get a lot of pleasure / support from playing the classical guitar.

Just graduated after 11 years of conservatory classical guitar.
9 years basic diploma and 2 years specialization classical guitar.
In addition, followed the following courses: music theory / music history / improvisation (this on electric guitar) / band coaching / ensemble playing / rock school ...

Can impart the most on a technical level and in the field of interpretation on the classical guitar.

In consultation with the student during the first lesson, we determine what we want to achieve by the end of the lesson / lesson series.
A particular piece? A new interpretation for a particular piece, a particular genre in which you are looking for a piece and want to learn? Something that always goes wrong? technical help? ..

To get more enjoyment out of playing the guitar!

I am an enthusiastic professional violinist and teacher. I can teach you classical violin, folk songs from Greece and Middle East, as well as your favourite pop tunes and tunes of almost any other music genre!

Being well classically trained, I can help you build a solid violin technique and prepare you for giving your best during important music occasions such as exams, auditions, concerts etc.

Also, being member of pop - oriental bands with concerts around Belgium, France and Greece, having played with several classical and
contemporary music ensembles and orchestras, as well as coming from a family of musicians, my lessons are ideal for students who want to learn to be at ease when they eventually make music with others. :)

All pieces can be taught either by ear, music scores or BOTH!! Teaching you basic and/or more advanced music theory to facilitate your violin learning if you don't know yet how to read and write music, can be easily done!

My personal experience with music psychology and body movement techniques for musicians have enriched my knowledge and teaching skills. Extra attention is given during the lessons to not only help you build a strong and steadfast technique and develop your music ear, but also to acquire a confident presence and attitude for when you play for others! All is being done with gentle care towards your body's physiology and feelings, and consideration of your learning style. :))

Finally, I'm at your disposal in between the lessons, answering to any questions you might have and offering you support and guidance with your new insights! :D

Reading, understanding, playing and writing music.
I offer lessons for children and adults, no matter the level. In my lessons, in addition to learning technique and the instrumental repertoire (clarinet), you learn the language of music in all its facets (solfeggio, rhythmics, dictation, harmony, elements of composition).
The method I use varies for each individual student and depends not only on his/her level, but on what interests him/her most and what serves his/her artistic growth.

I am Ezio, I am Italian and I moved to Belgium to continue my studies.
I have a degree in clarinet, I also studied conducting for wind orchestras, musical propaedeutics and also theatre and theatre therapy.
I have worked with youth bands and taught in two music schools in Sicily. I am always interested in new methodologies and everything that can make learning not only functional, but also a real pleasure.

Playing the cello is a skill that takes some time to learn. We will get through lots of pieces and do a lot of playing in classes. In some lessons, if necessary, we will learn about music theory as well, which helps us read music better and get to know our pieces better!
