Felipe (Canadian Guitarist)
Guitar - Theory - Improvisation (All Levels and Ages)
In my classes we focus on :
Improving your technique, understanding of music theory, and improvisational abilities are key components of becoming a versatile and skilled musician. Technique involves the physical aspects of playing your instrument, such as finger placement, breath control, or bowing, depending on the instrument you play. By focusing on these elements, you can develop greater precision, speed, and control, allowing you to express yourself more effectively through your music. As your technique improves, so does your confidence, enabling you to tackle more challenging pieces and perform with greater ease.
Understanding music theory is equally important, as it provides the foundation for everything you play. Music theory helps you make sense of the structure of compositions, including how chords, scales, and melodies interact. This knowledge allows you to analyze pieces more deeply, making it easier to learn new music and understand the intentions behind a composer’s work. It also supports your improvisational skills by giving you the tools to create your own music on the spot, experimenting with different harmonies and rhythms.
Additionally, learning how to play better with others is crucial for any musician. Collaborating in a group setting teaches you to listen closely, synchronize with others, and blend your sound to create a cohesive and harmonious performance.

He has 4 years of teaching experience with a wide range of experience levels, whether a complete beginner, more intermediate, preparing for exams or just want to learn for fun. He has taught up to age 70, meaning it is never too late to start learning.
