I am a professional jazz saxophonist. I attended the Lille conservatory to study classical saxophone. After graduating in 2005, I joined the conservatory's jazz class and began studying the jazz tradition. During those years, I also worked on Afro-Cuban music with percussionist Fred “El Pulpo” Savinien and vibraphonist, arranger and conductor Laurent Erdös.
I then took private lessons in Paris with Pierrick Pedron before moving to New York. While there I met jazz legend and saxophone master Bob Mover with whom I studied for several years. I also followed the teachings of Steve Houben and Fabrice Alleman in Brussels for some time. I also worked in blues, Afro-Cuban, soul and hip hop bands.
I have been teaching jazz for more than 15 years. I now live in Spain and play mainly with jazz, Afro-Cuban and blues bands on the national scene.

My classes focus on the jazz and blues tradition. I teach various aspects of jazz improvisation. The objective of the classes is to allow the student to develop a personal sound and progressively improve their rhythmic, harmonic and melodic knowledge.
Extra information
The courses will be held via Skype. Depending on my schedule I can also teach classes on weekends.

About Me
I'm a professional jazz saxophonist. I attended the Lille conservatory to study classical saxophone. After graduation in 2005, I joined the jazz class of the conservatory and started studying the jazz tradition with saxophonist and educator Gilles Cagin. During those years, I also worked on Afro-Cuban music with percussionist Fred «El Pulpo» Savinien and vibraphonist, arranger and conductor Laurent Erdös.
I then took private lessons in Paris with Pierrick Pedron before moving to New York. Once there I met jazz legend and saxophone master Bob Mover with whom I studied then for several years. I also followed the teachings of Steve Houben and Fabrice Alleman in Brussel for some time. I also work in blues, afro-cuban, soul and hip hop bands.
I've been teaching jazz for more than 15 years. I live now in Spain and play mainly with jazz, Afro-Cuban and blues bands from the national scene.
