Violin lessons - face-to-face and webcam - for beginners, intermediate, advanced, young and old.

First, let's remember what we're talking about. Music is and always has been inherent in all human societies. It has many roles and is a very powerful language. It's a universe in itself...

Music, and the violin in particular, brings me enormous joy every day. In fact, joy is, in my opinion, the greatest source of motivation given to us on earth. So, quite logically, I place it at the heart of my lessons.

It would be an illusion to pretend that learning to play the violin is a simple matter! So I accept the challenge, often neglected, to do everything I can to convey my enjoyment of playing the violin. By the way, as I just wrote, in French you don't say "travailler le violon", you say "jouer du violon". So even though the road is hard, I will do everything I can to make it fun.

My lessons are adapted to all levels, ages and profiles.

Together with each student, I strive to find the most suitable tests, so that everyone learns as effectively as possible and, above all, with pleasure!

I attach great importance to the correct use and well-being of the body. Playing the violin not only involves the cerebral and the emotional, it is also a complex physical exercise! For those who have already had lessons, I try to consciously or unconsciously replace bad habits learned with good ones, and for beginners to immediately install the correct automatisms.

I give individual lessons. But sometimes I bring students together to learn to play together and perform in public. Attending other people's lessons can also be very helpful in gaining a better understanding of the various mechanisms of the violin.

I look forward to meeting you and sharing my knowledge and love for music with you.

Extra information

To the first lesson, bring your violin, regardless of its condition. I will assess whether you can use it as is and if so, I will tell you what you need. In absolute terms you need a violin, a bow and a notepad.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I have been playing the violin since I was 7 years old. I learned the violin by taking lessons in parallel at the academy and in private lessons with a teacher who used the Suzuki method. The combination of these two types of learning allowed me to benefit from a technical background on the one hand and to discover a vast repertoire on the other hand. During my adolescence, I also participated in many classical violin courses but also folk violin and even Bluegrass. Towards the end of my secondary school, I decided to pursue higher studies in classical violin. So I joined Igor Tkatchouk's class as a young talent at the IMEP (Namur). Then, I studied at the Lemmens Institute (Leuven) with teachers such as Wim De Moor, Nico Baltussen, Lilia Umnova. I obtained a bachelor's and a master's degree there and specialized in chamber music. Currently I study violin and music didactics at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp.

For me, teaching represents above all, transmitting the inexhaustible joy that music gives me. Human contact is very important to me in teaching the violin. It is therefore first of all about meeting a new person and discovering a part of our respective universes in order to then broaden their horizons. If my teaching is mainly based on my own experience as a student and as a violin teacher, I try to diversify my type of teaching and adapt as much as possible to the needs and wishes of each of my students based on their own abilities. My lessons are aimed at anyone wishing to learn the violin or improve as a violinist. I am therefore open to all types of students, all ages and all levels.

Starting in September - VIOLIN LESSONS for beginners to advanced in Antwerp / VIOLIN LESSONS for beginners to advanced levels in Antwerp
After completing my Bachelor's degree in violin at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel, I did a year of Erasmus at the Robert Schumann Hochschule Düsseldorf, in Germany. From September, I will start my Master at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Antwerpen. Discovering new ways of learning is very important to me. I like to seize opportunities and meet inspiring musicians during Masterclasses in Belgium and abroad. Perseverance and work, while respecting oneself, are for me the keys to long-term progress. Learning music with kindness is the most important thing for me. I adapt to the needs and desires of each student, so that the process is personalized and motivating. Being able to pass on my passion enriches me enormously and allows me to acquire new skills as a musician. I teach in French and English. I also have some German and I plan to learn Dutch this year.

Violin lessons, music theory, musical improvisation, chamber music, musical awakening
With 27 years of experience as a violin teacher, artist and composer, I transmit my love of music in a creative, playful and holistic way. I have developed a method that adapts to each student according to their needs, levels and desires. I attach great importance to creating a caring and relaxed atmosphere where the student can flourish and develop both a solid technique and learn self-confidence. We will also discuss how to work efficiently and calmly and we will develop the qualities necessary to express yourself freely with your instrument. We will talk about musicality, physical well-being (the importance of breathing!), attentive listening and we will take the time to explore while having fun. If necessary, the basics of music theory will be learned gradually. Although I have a classical background I enjoy teaching a variety of music (Celtic, folk, klezmer, tango, jazz, films...) and I encourage my students to discover the most beautiful melodies in the repertoire and sometimes even to improvise or compose together. I often play chamber music (piano/violin) or violin duets with my students. My course is aimed at anyone who has the time to work on their instrument, children from 4 or 5 years old, adolescents, seasoned amateurs, beginners or advanced adults... Do not hesitate to contact me for any additional information. I look forward to meeting you very soon!
