I am a professional musician, bassist and guitarist. I give lessons at my home in La Hulpe, for beginners as well as for those who already have a low level. Children are welcome. Lessons for adults too, beginners and advanced. My lessons are more oriented towards live and practical side of things, for fast results. My goal is to make you play quickly and have fun, this by creating a shortcut to the musical performance. I speak English, German and a little Spanish too .... give me a call to find out more, I don't bite. :)
Extra information
Having your own instrument is important. Everything else (desks, amps, etc.) are on site.

I have neither done the academy nor graduated from the conservatory but I have a huge passion for music that I want to share with people who want to learn guitar or drums. No need for music theory, just the desire to learn will suffice ... I will learn with pleasure and passion for beginners or intermediaries how to play their favorite songs. And no matter what age, it's never too late to start! You will also have a real framework that will allow you to grow as you want and at your own pace.

I have started to play when I was 6 with classical music, but since then I have studied and played in very different styles and formations (jazz, blues, rock, reggae, funk etc). Nowadays I play classical and jazz music mainly but I am also member of a rock band and a pop formation, and from time to time I make a trip to play blues, funk, reggae, folk or any type of music really, because every one of them has its own "secrets ingredients" what I love.

Besides that, I give private lessons for adults and kids for more than a decade. I deeply believe in that and my experiences tell me: everyone can be taught to play on guitar. The only, but most important key is that every one of us has his own personal way to reach it. With your help, I am sure I will be able to find your key to the endless world of music.

The lessons can be at your or at my place.

• Jazz guitar student at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels
• 3 years of study at the "Jazz/Pop Studio" in Antwerp
• 16 years of practice
• Animator certified by the French Community

These are the points that I address during a one-hour lesson, following a learning method that I have specially designed for children: fun, creative and rewarding!

• A repertoire of songs and melodies with increasing difficulties so that the student progresses methodically.
• A first approach to music theory and music theory in a coloring workshop for the little ones, in a musical context for the older ones.
• Technical exercises, always in a musical context, in order to allow the student to overcome the technical difficulties of the guitar and to guide him towards total musical independence.
• A “listening and discovery” part where I try to introduce the student to aspects of music that they are unaware of (improvisation, sound of instruments, different musical styles, the role of each instrument in a group/orchestra, etc.). ..)

As said before, my goal is to guide the student towards musical independence so that he can progress on his own in the long term. Learning the guitar also means developing self-confidence, creativity, perseverance and methodology.

Courses and Training:

Graduated in Musicology, my specialization in Singing at the IMEP (Conservatory of Namur) and in accompanying music on the accordion led me after my studies to give singing lessons in a music school (Cap sur le Music in Kraainem), as well as musical awakening in different schools, via Les Jeunesses Musicales.
Being also an ethnomusicologist, I like to work with repertoires from other horizons, both singing and accordion.
Currently working part-time at Outhere Music (production and distribution house of classical and jazz music), I have the chance to discover on a daily basis a large quantity of various repertoires, likely here to be the subject of discoveries for the student, depending on their different future artistic aspirations.
Passionate about CVT (complete vocal technique) since 2021 and trained in postural and psycho-behavioural muscle chains (GDS method), my goal is to get the student to explore his vocal universe as broadly as possible, while increasing his body awareness with each lesson.

Approach & repertoire:

I attach great importance to body awareness, presence and movement, as well as the overall well-being of the student. Having also followed a training in Mindfulness, I like to mix a therapeutic approach with the artistic work accomplished with the student.
Starting from the student's musical desires and aspirations is also essential for me. I therefore aim for personalized support that respects its own achievement objectives.
My methodology aims at learning the technique through play and body movement, both for singing lessons and musical awakening.
No prerequisite in music is necessary (neither music theory nor other).

Musical Awakening for children (individual or semi-collective – from 1 to 6-7 years old):

With young children, I try to multiply awakening approaches using senses other than just hearing, both by learning gesture songs and rhythmic activities. The activities of dance or development of the ear by listening are of course omnipresent. I work on psychomotricity and seek to discover new instruments, as well as the different repertoires which are connected to them.
I work on several levels (passive and active) and different scales of difficulty according to ages and possible interactions in small groups, in order to anchor learning and awakening over time.
Breath work is also on the program.

My name is Francisco, I am an Argentinian guitarist currently living in Brussels. I am finishing my studies at the conservatory (KCB), but I have been playing for most of my life and teaching privately and in music academics for a few years already.
Although my main focus musically is in jazz and improvisation in general, I am also into funk, blues, rock, pop, indie and folk.

I would define my teaching style as flexible, in the sense that I believe in building a programme together with each of my students, in the which his or her specific musical interests are covered and the same time, diving into and developing the areas which I consider fundamental, regardless of the musical style or genre: rhythm and time feel, sound, technique, posture and fretboard knowledge.

Some of the topics that we will cover:

Repertoire (learning songs)
Triads and scales
Chords
Metronome exercises
Picking
Left and right hand coordination

And more!

I teach in a motivating and encouraging spirit based on what you and only you want to play, regardless of the level, without the need for music theory. Electric, classical or acoustic guitar, no matter the style, the important thing is to learn what you love!

I started playing guitar in September 1996.I have performed extensively, including tours in a variety of bands, as a rhythm guitarist, lead guitarist, and composer. I have studied with private teachers or on my own, carefully selecting my books and teaching methods.I can teach pop and rock guitar in the broadest sense of the term, whether through pick playing or finger-picking. In addition, I have extensive knowledge of production, mixing, editing, and electronic music, which makes me very knowledgeable about effects pedals for electric guitarists. However, I teach both folk and electric guitar. I have been giving private lessons since 2008, alongside my life as a professional musician.

Perfect your guitar playing to concert level. I am classically trained, I studied with great masters of the instrument Carlos Bonell and Aniello Desiderio, and I believe that anyone who wants to make it can do so with a little talent, plenty of passion, and mountains of enthusiasm. I can help you develop your technique and musicality, to get through exams or train for competitions and concerts.

You want to:
- Feel comfortable accompanying and improvising in the different styles you enjoy.
- Build a repertoire of folk, blues pop, classical, bossa or jazz standards.
- Use music theory to develop your ear and creativity so you can play and communicate more easily with your musician friends.
- Develop your technique and optimal posture with the help of the F.M. Alexander Technique.

In practice:
Lessons take place in my home studio in Rixensart. I can also give lessons online, but I prefer face-to-face lessons so that I can easily guide the student and clearly hear (and see) all the nuances of what is being played. I mainly use the interactive music notation platform soundslice.com to share my scores. The scores, tablature and guitar methods are synchronised with the original tracks or learning videos, either tailor-made or from great masters and available on YouTube. It is possible to loop sections, slow down passages as desired, gradually speed up, keep a practice calendar to see when you have worked and motivate yourself to move forward. It really is a learning tool that I wish I had had when I was younger. ;-)

I also encourage everyone to get a small keyboard so they can practice harmony in a practical way on the piano, which allows them to break out of their guitar habits and become better musicians with a multidisciplinary understanding of music.

The music lessons I offer are designed to be a space for discovery and personal growth, free from academic pressure. Whether you're learning your favorite pieces or deepening your technical understanding of your instrument, together we'll explore your needs and desires. Each lesson is tailored to the individual student (if you're learning an instrument and also want to sing, I'd be delighted). Creativity is equally important; improvisation (through the study of jazz) and composition (of music and lyrics) are more than welcome, if desired.

My course is aimed at intermediate or advanced guitarists who already know how to play chords, improvise a little, and who would like to start or improve their skills in gypsy jazz or jazz, but feel stuck in their learning.

If you wish
- Learning Gypsy jazz and improvisation seems beyond your reach,
- Understand how to accompany and improvise on any piece at sight, without music theory.
- Understanding music, harmony, and the instrument
- Develop a directory
- To be able to improvise freely, develop your ear, and adapt to different styles.

Don't hesitate to get in touch.

I offer several approaches and methods which I adapt according to the individual wishes and needs of the students.

Discounted rates for 5 or 10 lessons.
