Folk or classical acoustic guitar.

The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.

For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...).

For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...).

Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:

-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.

Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.

THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Hello!

Being a singer and a singing teacher, many many times I have found myself in the situation of having to work on ear training, or solfège, or music theory... or all the above listed!
Approaching music and having no clue of these elements can totally be intimidating and off-putting, but with the right guidance and the correct practice, I’m sure you will learn in no time! I want to prove to you that building this basic knowledge can be easy, accessible, and not heavy at all.
My program is not fixed: I’ll build it on your specific needs, whether they are preparing an exam, curiosity, or getting better at pitch matching... we will discuss it together. I have many books and materials, and I honestly prefer to draw blackboards by myself a lot of times. Unless you want to, I won’t ask you to buy any material, so the only cost that you will have to sustain is for the time of the class.

In piano lessons, we use the book method of Notus or Hal Leonard.
Everything is explained step by step and you gradually learn to read music and know the piano.

At the start of our lessons we'll take a look at what is important to you. What goals do you want to set, and what feels achievable and comfortable?
We set long-term goals of, for example, a year. Completely tailored to where you are at, right now.

During the lessons I am patient, motivating, encouraging, and complimenting. I'll point out what could be better, and also pay attention to how you can play more easily. And much more. Tailored to your needs and wishes.

Have you been at it for a while but are having trouble finishing tracks? Or are you just taking your first steps in Ableton and Logic? Have you watched dozens of YouTube videos and feel like everyone is saying something different? 🤯 Are you wondering why your mixes don't sound as precise and powerful as you imagined? Are you not quite able to implement a certain style and are wondering what is missing? Sounds? Drums? Chords? Do you want to work more with singers but have no idea how to produce or record vocals? Are you lacking workflow techniques to get from idea to implementation more efficiently? Are you unsure about the next steps to build a career as a producer?

Then you are exactly right here!

What I offer:
✅ Individual support and tailor-made lessons.
✅ Feedback on your tracks and concrete tips for improvement.
✅ Practical and efficient work directly in your DAW project.
✅ Screen recordings and summaries of all online sessions.
✅ Help in setting and implementing achievable goals.
✅ Flexibility in booking and process – online or in Berlin.

Your next steps:
1. Link me to your current tracks and we can discuss your goals and interests together.
2. After our conversation, I will create a tailor-made proposal for your first lesson.
3. Together we will find a rhythm for your lessons that suits you – flexible and adapted to your everyday life.

For artists, songwriters, and creatives ready to shape their vision.

Are you working on your own songs and feeling stuck?
Do you have a head full of ideas but struggle to bring them together into one clear artistic story?
Or maybe you’ve already created something you're proud of, but you want to take it further — deeper, bolder, more you.

I'm here to help you connect the dots.

As a singer, songwriter, producer and creative director working on my own debut album, I know how overwhelming the creative process can feel. There’s so much more to being an artist than just making music. Your sound, your visuals, your story, your live performance — it’s all connected. That’s where I come in.

In our sessions, we can explore whatever part of your creative world needs support:

🎵 Songwriting – melody, lyrics, structure, harmony
🎧 Production Direction – from early sketches to refined ideas
🌙 Artistic Identity – visual storytelling, aesthetics, branding
🎤 Performance & Presence – connecting with your audience
💡 Creative Strategy – organizing ideas and unlocking new ones
🌀 Intuitive Guidance – sometimes you just need a sounding board

You don’t have to do this alone.

Whether you're a beginner or a more advanced artist, we’ll work with what’s already inside you — your instincts, your taste, your questions. Sessions are fully personalized and can be a one-time deep dive or part of a longer creative journey together.

Sound Healing, Sound Bath, Chakra Healing & Reiki

Sound Healing is a holistic wellbeing practice that uses intentional sound, vibration and mindful listening to create a deeply relaxing and meditative experience.

My sessions use instruments such as Tibetan singing bowls, gongs and other therapeutic sound instruments, combined with guided relaxation and mindfulness-based practices. The intention is to help you slow down, release everyday tension, become more aware of your body and mind, and create a deeper sense of relaxation and inner balance.

What I Offer

Sound Bath

A deeply immersive relaxation experience using Tibetan singing bowls, gongs and other sound instruments. You simply relax, listen and allow the sounds and vibrations to become the focus of your awareness.

A Sound Bath may be particularly suitable if you are looking for:

• Deep relaxation
• Stress reduction
• Mental quietness
• Meditation support
• Emotional relaxation
• A peaceful break from a busy lifestyle

Chakra Healing

A holistic practice incorporating sound, meditation, intention and awareness of the traditional chakra system.

Chakra Balancing

A guided sound-based practice focused on relaxation, awareness and the traditional concept of balancing the body's energy centres.

Full-Body Sound Healing

A personalized session using multiple sound instruments and guided relaxation to create an immersive full-body relaxation experience.

The session may help you disconnect from everyday mental activity, become more aware of bodily sensations and enter a deeply restful state.

Reiki with Sound Healing

A complementary session combining Reiki practice with Sound Healing for people interested in a holistic relaxation and wellbeing experience.

The session focuses on relaxation, mindfulness, energetic awareness and creating a calm environment for self-reflection.

Corporate Sound Bath

I also conduct Corporate Sound Bath and Corporate Wellness sessions designed for employees and organizations.

Corporate sessions can be customized for:

• Stress management
• Workplace relaxation
• Employee wellbeing
• Meditation and mindfulness
• Wellness days
• Team wellbeing events
• Corporate retreats
• International Yoga Day / wellness initiatives

Sessions can be conducted online or in person, depending on the requirement.

A Personalized Approach

I don't use exactly the same session for everyone.

Before a session, I take into consideration your intention, experience, comfort level and any relevant sensitivities. The instruments, intensity and structure of the session can then be adapted accordingly.

My objective is to create a safe, peaceful and deeply immersive sound experience where you can relax, turn your attention inward and reconnect with yourself.

These courses are primarily aimed at beginners or false beginners wishing to learn the violin on a solid foundation, in a progressive and motivating way.

Trained in classical and chamber music by a conservatory professor, I have developed an approach to the violin that is both rigorous and accessible, always keeping the pleasure of playing as the objective.

We work on the essential fundamentals: posture, bow hold, intonation, tone, and basic musicality. Emphasis is placed on a clear progression adapted to each student.

Each lesson is personalized according to your pace and objectives, whether it's to discover the instrument, consolidate the basics or evolve towards a more expressive style of playing.

Courses are available in French or English.

Would you like to learn how to make relaxed lo-fi beats, how to incorporate your own guitar or melody ideas into Ableton, or are you looking for someone to take a look at your projects in an approachable way? I would be happy to help you with this!

Under the artist name Vidalima, I have been making lofi and chill music in Ableton myself for a few years. I release my tracks on Spotify (with over 2 million streams in the past year) and through various lofi labels. I know how difficult it can be when you are just starting out, get stuck in the software, or don't quite know how to make a beat sound 'warm' and atmospheric.

We take a practical and relaxed approach. No complicated theory, just tinkering with your songs together.

What we can get started with:

Tinkering together in Ableton: Handy tips and clever tricks to develop your ideas faster and get that chill vibe in your projects.

From idea to complete track: How to turn a loose guitar riff, sample, or catchy beat into a full-fledged lo-fi song that flows nicely.

Making it sound warm & spacious: Listening to your track together and using simple basic steps (such as volume, EQ, and balance) to ensure your beat sounds clear and warm.

Sharing experiences with lofi releases: I enjoy sharing my own experiences as Vidalima regarding finishing tracks, uploading to Spotify, and contacting lofi playlist curators, other artists, and labels.

Whether you have just installed Ableton or already have a few sketches lying around that you are stuck on: we will look at what you need together, at your own pace!

Complete beginners are very welcome. You do not need previous production experience or music theory. Whether you are opening Ableton for the first time, struggling to finish tracks, or already producing and want to improve your sound, I tailor each lesson to your level, musical taste, and goals.

We can work on Ableton Live, MIDI, sampling and workflow; turning loops into finished tracks; arrangement and song structure; sound design, synthesizers and effects; mixing and mastering; developing your own sound; detailed feedback on your productions; and practical advice about releases, labels, DJing and the music industry.

The lessons are practical and centred on your own music. We can work directly on your projects or build a track together from scratch. I am Lars, an international DJ and music producer with more than 25 years of experience. I have released music on labels including Golden Recordings, Mobilee, Nervous, Katermukke, Stil Vor Talent and Kittball, worked with Boris Dlugosch and Phil Fuldner, and produced remixes for Purple Disco Machine and Claptone. I have performed at venues and festivals including Watergate Berlin, Pacha Ibiza, Printworks London, Tomorrowland and Fusion Festival. Lessons are available in English or German via Zoom with screen sharing and high-quality audio.

If you are interested in composition, music production, songwriting and performance but feel like you need some technical or creative motivation, this is the lesson for you. If you feel discouraged or overwhelmed by the technical aspects of a creative process, this is the lesson for you.

In these lessons, we will work on making the most of what we have through creative-problem solving and inspiration-hunting. You bring your ideas and we develop them together, have challenging conversations and explore alternative approaches to composition, production and songwriting to get you closer to your vision. We will also explore the many possibilities of working with a live band, ensemble or orchestra and how to encourage a healthy but focused work process.

Some more things covered in the process:

- Logic Pro X (mixing, producing, sampling, midi, audio recording)

- Composition (score writing / editing, notation software, orchestration / arrangement, music theory, composing for film / video)

- Songwriting (arranging, alternative score-writing, band communication, demo-making)

- Experimental production (eg. no-input mixing, prepared instruments, effect-pedals)

Have you ever looked at your clarinet and thought, "I should play more often..." — then scrolled instead? Perfect, Music Wednesdays are for you! What's that?!? Two short monthly get-togethers, stress-free, judgment-free... but with music.
The concept is simple:
We meet for 45 minutes, and we really play.
30 minutes of guided practice (inspired by the “winners’ routine”, with a drum machine and a broken-down style)
A little improvisation to unleash creativity, tame your emotions, and maybe discover that you're better than you thought.
A moment to ask your questions: a passage you're stuck on, a study, a method... let's talk about it

The prerequisites (note: very demanding):
An instrument (ideally a clarinet, but we're open to suggestions)
Ears (preferably sharp ones)
Attention (yes, you'll have to turn off notifications... hang in there!!)

When ?
The first Wednesday of the month, from 6:30 p.m. to 7:15 p.m., then the third Wednesday of the month similarly from 6:30 p.m. to 7:15 p.m.

Objective: to progress without getting bored, to play at a relaxed pace, and to leave with the desire to play again.
If your clarinet is starting to gather dust or if you're simply looking for a nice place to practice... sign up!!
(I promise, no one will ask you to play the Mozart Concerto in the first session... well, unless you insist.)

See you soon !
