Many years of experience in music teaching, both instruments (percussion, drums, etc.) and music theory/ introduction to music learning.
Embark on a musical adventure with my drum lessons, specifically designed for children! Dive into the exhilarating world of rhythm as your child learns the art of drumming. In these lessons, we focus exclusively on drums, allowing your child to fully immerse in the dynamics and energy of this powerful instrument. Your child will master various hand techniques and rhythm patterns, essential for becoming a skilled drummer. We'll explore the fundamentals of music theory and notation, making it easy for them to understand and follow the language of music. Each lesson is an opportunity for your child to discover different styles and techniques associated with drumming, from rock beats to jazz rhythms. I place a strong emphasis on creativity and self-expression, encouraging each student to find their unique drumming style. Collaborative activities will also be a part of our lessons, teaching your child the importance of teamwork in music. Whether your child is picking up drumsticks for the first time or looking to enhance their existing skills, my lessons are customized to their level and interests. I strive to create a supportive and engaging environment where your child can confidently grow as a drummer. Join my drum lessons and watch your child develop not just as a musician, but as a creative and collaborative individual. Let's start this rhythmic journey together and unlock your child's potential behind the drum set!
My name is Barbara, and I am excited to offer you personalised Cajon lessons! Are Drums a bit too loud for you? Or maybe even too much to carry around? Then Cajon is the perfect instrument for you! As an experienced percussionist, I've tailored my teaching methods to blend technical skill with creative expression. My aim is to inspire and guide you in mastering this unique instrument. My Cajon lessons are suitable for students of all ages, designed to be both enjoyable and educational.

Classical guitar and music theory lessons by a qualified teacher from the Conservatory
Whether you are an adult or younger, did you know that with the proper methods, follow-up and advice, you can reach in 2 years the equivalent of what is achieved in 10 years in music school? The passion and pleasure of playing will quickly make you forget the minimum 1h30 of daily practice necessary for this beautiful and pleasant feat. This is the challenge I set myself by offering you these courses. Practicing classical guitar for 27 years, graduated from the National Conservatory of Limoges, I teach guitar (beginner to advanced levels). My method is distinguished by a perfect combination of high standards and attention paid to the pleasure of playing. Passionate about music theory (rhythms, musical notations and other aspects that seem tedious to many), I know how to transmit this taste for musical technique. The pleasure of play develops when you feel your progress, and these come with regular work. I therefore ask for attendance and regularity of at least 1 hour of practice per day. Depending on the students, the frequency of lessons can be bi-weekly or bi-monthly, and will be defined together, while remaining flexible. I can also advise you on the purchase of a classical guitar. Note: the practice of the classical guitar requires short nails on the left hand, and nails overflowing just beyond the tip of the finger, on the right hand, at all times. This allows an inimitable sound quality. References on request Follow up by email/phone as needed between lessons. Examples of pieces you will be able to play after a year: works by Bach, Giuliani, Fernando Sor, Carcassi, Aguado, Jeux Interdits, baroque flamenco, romantic works

Harples and solfège lessons for each level. By an enthusiastic harpist. Student at the conservatory with experience in teaching.
I am currently a student at the Conservatoire Royal de Bruxelles. I'm in my third bachelor's degree. I have been taking harp lessons for 13 years with various renowned teachers such as Eline Groslot and Annie Lavoisier. During this period I also gained a lot of experience as a concert harpist. Including the second prize in the Concours Français de la Harpe (2017). And for 3 years I also give private lessons in harp and solfège. These lessons focus on both (young) children who want to learn harp and adults who want to start using harp. Each student is guided at his own pace and the lessons are adapted to the wishes of each student. Note learning lessons are also adjusted as much as possible to the student's pace.

Percussion and Flamenco classes. Cajon, Body percussion..
Learn Flamenco, body percussion, cajon and practical tools to be more creative with your instrument! In these percussion groups we would use Konnakol, an Indian classical system created to understand rhythm, it mixes languaje and mathematics in a way that allow us to understand music in a very intuitive, practical and fun way. About me: I'm a professional percussion and flute player from Andalucía that plays flamenco and world music with 15 years of musical experience. Ive played in different fusion projects as a percussion player in Netherlands, Spain, India, Switzerland... The last years I've been going to India focusing my studies on the relationship between Indian classical music and flamenco. It is in Mumbai where I started studying tabla and Bansuri at Vrindaban Gurukul since then I realized the great value that indian classical music has as a pedagogical tool and now that I moved to Zurich I'm looking forward to create a group where we can grow together. I also studied Music therapy in Malaga and in Rotterdam so my focus while teaching is in creating a good relationship with art and the instrument, reprogramming how to learn in a natural and intuitive way and very important, to have fun and express yourself so music becomes an extension of you.
