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.

If you've been eager to get better in drums and therefore studying all its different styles and genres, I definitely can help you with that!
Particularly, I've studied in deep Tony Williams' and Elvin Jones' playing and the main drummers of the jazz era from the 50s to the 70s , so if you really want to improve that kind of vision and sound I can give you some great hints such as transcriptions, analysis, sound strategies and many video materials.
Also, I am specialized in Funk/Hip-Hop music and that kind of groovy world. So, I've been mastering a specific approach to this genre as well.

About me:
I've been playing drums since I was 6. I got my Master Degree in 2022 at Salerno Music Conservatory (Italy) in Jazz Drums and Percussion.
I've been doing the role of Assistant Professor at KCB with Stéphane Galland since 2023.

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 Balancing

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

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

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.

I believe anyone of all ages is capable of picking up a guitar to learn their favourite tune without any extensive knowledge required. I teach primary school students guitar and piano with fun interactive games to get their creative minds working whilst encouraging important techniques to build upon. Lessons will revolve around various books to learn songs from and ideally help students achieve grades. I've helped students with Rockschool books between grades 1-3 for electric guitar. All styles can be covered from rock, blues, jazz, pop & funk.

Would you like to play your favorite artists' songs on the guitar? 🎸🎶

In these classes, you'll learn in a practical, dynamic way, perfectly tailored to your musical tastes. You choose the songs, artists, or styles you love, and we'll work together so you can learn to play and accompany them on the guitar.

You'll learn chords, chord changes, rhythms, strumming patterns, and different accompaniment techniques, always applied to real songs. The goal isn't simply to memorize songs, but to gradually understand how they work so you can learn new songs on your own.

The classes are adapted to all levels. If you're starting from scratch, we'll go step by step so you can begin playing your first songs from the beginning. If you already have some guitar experience, we'll work on improving your rhythm, technique, and accompaniment skills.

We can work on pop, rock, rumba, flamenco, singer-songwriter songs, and many other styles. From artists like Estopa, Melendi, Pablo Alborán, Manuel Carrasco, or Fito y Fitipaldis, to any group or singer that's part of your favorite music.

If you also like to sing, we can also work on how to accompany you on the guitar.

🎵 You choose the music.
🎸 I'll help you learn to play it.
📈 And little by little you will acquire the tools to learn many more songs on your own.

Tell me what song or artist you'd like to play and we'll get started!

Get over the technique hurdle, bridge your favorite pop and rap hooks to the horn, and start playing real music from day one!

Class Overview

Sax to Songs is designed for absolute beginners and rusty starters who want to skip the tedious technical drills and focus on what actually matters: playing songs you love.

In this supportive and fun class, we demystify the basics just enough to get you making great sounds, and then immediately apply them to real-world tunes. Whether your favorite music is chart-topping pop, heavy-hitting rap beats, smooth R&B, or classic soul, you’ll learn the shortcuts to sounding great without getting bogged down in theory.

The Secret Melody: From Beats to Ballads

Love rap and modern pop? Your favorite tracks are already built on incredible hooks and vocal lines. In this class, we show you that a saxophone doesn't play "old-fashioned" music—it functions just like a vocal lead or a catchy synth drop in your favorite modern songs.

The way I see it: If you can hum it, you can play it.

I’ll teach you how to translate the infectious energy of pop and hip-hop phrasing, to name a few genres, into smooth, expressive melodic playing that commands the room.

What You Will Learn

The 5-Minute Setup: Quick tricks for putting your horn together, managing your reed, and getting a confident tone instantly.

Essential Finger Shortcuts: Master the core notes you actually need to play hundreds of popular songs and catchy hooks.

Rhythm & Groove: How to play with feel and make the notes swing, rock, or lock into a modern beat rather than sound like a robot.

Play-Along Mastery: Build confidence by playing right along with backing tracks, modern loops, and your favorite recordings.

Who This Is For:

Anyone who wants a low-stress, high-reward musical community.

No boring sheet music drills allowed!

Bring your saxophone, an open mind, and get ready to turn your favorite hooks and favorite songs into real music on week one!
