EN : Playing drums since the age of 7, I am ready to give drum lessons at all levels. I can also teach rhythmic music theory in parallel so as not to force the student to follow classical music theory lessons, which are not entirely relevant for percussion.

EN: Drumming since the age of 7, I am capable of teaching drum lessons at any level. Additionally, I can provide instruction in rhythmic theory to complement the lessons, avoiding the necessity of traditional music theory which may not be as relevant for percussion instruments.

EN: Being French and holder of the baccalaureate, I can learn French at all levels. In particular the study of literature since I managed to obtain the maximum mark in the oral French.

ADOMUKA is a new HGT battery school unique in its kind.
It is located in Vésenaz, 15 minutes from the city (bus or car). Private parking spaces are available !!
The school teaches exclusively in Geneva the incredible methods of drums "Tapatakoum", "Drummer by Experience" as well as the collection of playback "Styl'Groove" editions Hervé-Georges Torcheux.
The HGT network is more than 27 approved drumming schools throughout France as well as in a few cities in Switzerland and an extremely pleasant and fun way to learn how to play the drums.
The classes at ADOMUKA are intended for all ages and all levels. For children (from 6 years), the "Tapatakoum" method is the ideal tool to start the drums while having fun. Thanks to her, no need to own a battery at home to start!
The method is based on onomatopoeic rhythmic songs as well as the rhythmic bases of the drums, illustrated in pictures, which will gradually become involved in the writing of music theory thus giving the student a progressive, effective and fun learning!

Both fun and rigorous percussion lessons! I try in my lessons to make people want to play music while instilling a taste for the necessary work in music. I adapt my requirements and my expectations according to the profile of the student throughout his training.
The course of a classic beginner's course (30 minutes): 5 min of technique, 5 min of reading notes / rhythms, 20 min of work on a piece.

Currently in Bachelor of Percussion at the Haute Ecole de Musique in Geneva, I give percussion lessons at home for all levels in Geneva and its surroundings.

Drums form the rhythmic foundation of any modern musical style. Polyrhythms, grooves, breaks, fills, all this jargon is part of the tools and techniques developed through the practice of this instrument.
The most important thing, however, is to have fun. A few basics are already enough to start having fun!
I always listen and adapt the program to the student's wishes and objectives. Whether it's to refine your technique, discover styles, or just exercise once a week, the drums are a versatile and quick to learn instrument.
Basic music theory can also be taught if necessary.

About me:
I started classical percussion in Geneva, at the Conservatoire populaire, at 9 years old, and continued until obtaining my certificate (with honors) in 2015.
At the same time, I started playing drums at 15 years old. I immediately fell in love with this instrument, and I never stopped. I trained in jazz, but have played in many projects with varied styles since I was 18.

With me, you can work on classic percussion instruments (marimba, vibraphone, snare drum, multi-percussion) as well as drums. We will see how we can combine the two and create links between them. I will try to offer visual and auditory resources so that the person has fun and progresses at the same time. It will be a question of understanding technique and theory as a means serving an artistic and musical end.

Adapted to each person’s level, goals and time.

During this time we will be able to progress on different aspects of the battery

- Rhythms and accompaniment patterns in different genres (Rock, Jazz, Funk, Latin...)
- Independence
- Basics
- The sound
- Tempo and groove
- Musical reading and theory
- Improvisation

When it comes to classical percussion, many aspects are similar, although some differ.

- the work of melodic instruments (marimbam, vibraphone, xylohpone)
- Harmonic and tonal/modal knowledge of these instruments.
- Holds 2 and 4 sticks
- Knowledge of pieces from the percussion repertoire.
- Opportunity to work on adaptations of classic composers.
- Technical and musical work on orchestral instruments
