About Me

learning an instrument was something I always wanted to do but it was 'too hard' and I wasn't 'good enough.' I broke both my wrists and struggled with dexterity and patience.

In my 4th year as a teacher I visited Hawaii for a drumming course. I stumbled onto the Uke, fell in love with it and have helped introduce it into hundreds of students.

I've taught students dance drama and music and taught teachers how to teach those performing arts. I don't teach performing seals but if you're interested in learning the uke, developing your confidence whilst playing, challenging yourself and having some laughs along the way, I can help you.

Registered Running Coach with Vic Athletics
Acting is a tough business. As an actor, producer and director I have been on both sides of the audition process. My goal is to facilitate a safe work space where the actor can make mistakes, explore their roles and creativity in preparation for work in an industry which will say "no' more often than 'yes'. This class will teach students, of all ages, acting techniques to develop their own skills explore roles through a creative methodology and build confidence in their dramatic works, presentations or public speeches.

Miko
Guitar lessons -all styles- in Naninne (Namur) and surroundings
- About the course-- My method is to work the technique and the musicality at the beginning of the tastes of the student so that the objectives are always stimulating. I try to develop as quickly as possible to the students, that is to say to make them able to target their own difficulties and to invent the exercises to solve them. --About me-- I am a guitar teacher for over 15 years, privately, music school (Kraainem, Waterloo, Enghien) and internship (AKDT). I started the guitar 25 years ago and have never stopped. I went through all styles: from classical to pop songs and then to electric guitar: blues, rock and then jazz (with Frankie Rose). Later, I developed flamenco (with Karim Baggili), Brazilian (with Osman Martins), gypsy music and Eastern European music (with Tcha Limberger). I am also versed in gypsy jazz. I can give classes of any level and any style. I give the theory in parallel of what is worked so that it enters in a passive way. I have experience with children as well as adults. I also teach electric bass and ukulele.

Learn guitar or ukulele in French or Spanish!
I am a Mexican musician living in the Parisian suburbs. I have more than 20 years as a guitarist and more than 10 years as a guitar teacher in Mexico. My specialty is Latin music and Latin American folklore; however, other genres can be practiced mainly on the acoustic guitar or the ukulele. I try to combine theory with practice so that I can start making music and enjoy the instrument from the start. Music has taken me to play in Mexico, United States, Costa Rica, France, Poland, Spain, Portugal and Germany. I can teach in Spanish, English or French.
