Learn Piano and Music Theory with a CREATIVE APPROACH - Jazz, Classical, Pop, Rock...Hey there! Do you want to start a new hobby? Do you already play the piano and you want to improve your skills with a creative approach to the instrument? Then I think I can help you!
I can teach you basic and advanced concepts of any style on the piano (classical, jazz, pop-rock...), and if you like improvisation and jazz then we get along even better!

SINGING LESSON // TECHNIQUE // JAZZ // IMPROVISATION //Teaching has been an extraordinary tool for my personal development as a vocalist. It’s fascinating to
observe how the posture and vocal challenges of my students can reveal certain aspects of their
personality. As a singer, your body is your instrument, and any physical or psychological issues can directly
affect your voice.
Through teaching, I have realized the profound impact that practicing singing has on my overall well being. It is not only helps me take care of my body but also enables me to feel confident and at ease when
standing in front of individuals or even a large audience without hiding behind an instrument. This sense
of comfort and confidence extends beyond the realm of singing and positively influences my personal
growth as a person.
My goal is to instill this mindset in my students. I believe it is more beneficial to approach singing not as a
tedious practice, but as a profound discipline that contributes to their overall well-being and adds value to
their everyday lives. When we view singing in this light, it becomes an uplifting factor that goes beyond
technical exercises and becomes a source of joy, personal growth, and empowerment.

Private guitar lessons for every level: from basic chords to out of the box improvisationHey!
My name is Richard and I give private lessons to all levels.
For guitar, it is important that you can improve yourself in a pleasant environment in a fun way where your interests are central. Do you want to delve deeper into a certain style? Do you want to create your own sound on your guitar using amps, and pedals, ...? I can help you with all that!
Knowledge of solfège or music theory is not required, we can always discuss this in class if you wish, but that is certainly not mandatory ;)
I have been playing the guitar since I was 9 years old and for several years now I have been playing in professional bands with which I have been able to play on sugar rock, for example.
The lessons would take place at my home in Mol or via webcam. If necessary, we can always agree on something else.
Be sure to let me know if you have any questions and I will answer as soon as possible.
See you soon!
Richard
