My goal is to facilitate high-quality learning through modern, engaging, and effective teaching techniques that make complex theory and technique accessible and exciting. I accept all ages and levels. My Classes & Expertise I offer a holistic approach to music education, covering everything from the physical mechanics of the instrument to the deep logic of music theory. Guitar Technique I specialize in a wide array of styles (Electric, Classical, and Acoustic) and advanced techniques, including: • Precision Picking: Alternate, Economy, and Sweep picking. • Expression: Legato, Hybrid Picking, Tapping, Vibrato, and Bending. • Style Versatility: From Fingerstyle and Strumming to high-level Shredding. Theory, Harmony & Improvisation My lessons go beyond just "playing notes"—I teach students to understand the language of music: • Improvisation: Mastering scales (Pentatonics, Modes, Symmetric scales), Patterns, Melodic Fragments and fretboard visualization. • Advanced Concepts: Popular Music Theory, Harmony, Songwriting, and Reharmonization. • Academic Foundation: I hold a Master of Music (MMus) and conservatory degrees in Classical Guitar, Counterpoint and Classical Harmony (all with First Class Honors).

I offer structured, technique-driven online lessons for students who want more than just chord charts. Trained in both the classical and flamenco traditions. My approach is methodical, but never rigid—I tailor each lesson plan to your goals, whether you are preparing for graded exams or simply want to understand the why behind the music. What I Cover in Lessons: 1.⁠ ⁠Classical Guitar Fundamentals · Posture & Hand Position: Achieving maximum efficiency with minimal tension. We look at sitting position, left-hand alignment, and right-hand resting stroke vs. free stroke. · Tone Production: Nail shaping, attack angles, and how to draw a singing tone from the instrument. · Sight-Reading & Theory: Learning to read standard notation confidently, not just tablature. We cover positions, key signatures, and how to interpret phrasing marks. · Repertoire Building: From Sor, Carcassi, and Aguado to Granados, Albéniz, and Villa-Lobos. I help you build a polished, performance-ready repertoire. 2.⁠ ⁠Flamenco Technique & Style · The Four Essential Strokes: Rasgueado (strumming variations), Picado (scale runs), Arpeggio, and Alzapúa (thumb technique). · Compás (Rhythm): Understanding the rhythmic cycles of Soleá, Bulerías, Tangos, Fandangos and many more. You will learn to feel the beat, not just count it. · Falsetas: Short, pre-composed solo phrases. We break them down phrase by phrase, then learn to link them together. · Accompaniment: Introduction to accompanying flamenco cante (singing) and baile (dance) – chord progressions, capo placement, and staying locked in with the singer. 3.⁠ ⁠Music Theory Applied to the Fretboard · Harmonic analysis of the music you are playing. · The difference between major/minor and the Andalusian cadence (Phrygian mode). 4. Creative Exploration · Once the fundamentals are solid, we explore arrangement. Learn to take a melody (folk song, film theme, or standard) and arrange it for solo guitar in flamenco style. Who This Is For: · Students preparing for formal music exams. · Self-taught guitarists looking to fix technique gaps and learn to read music. · Flamenco enthusiasts who want to move beyond "strumming" into authentic compás and falsetas. · Classical players curious about adding flamenco colours to their playing.

Trusted teacher: The course that I propose is BILINGUAL FRENCH / ENGLISH, as well as 2 BOOKS. Age and musical taste are not restrictive when in the program, you can with qualitative daily work (not quantitative) quickly observe your progress. Here the pleasure of playing music is put forward. The kind of music you love most will be the focus of the course, their codes and secrets will be the focus of our study, that's what I want to share with you. We can do technical lessons and simply learn together how to play one or more songs of your choice or mine, enrich your game with this approach and your repertoire! (For example, We can re-arrange the pieces and make them more original by approaching the system (CAGED), and enriching their chords, resulting in new positions, new techniques and new sounds, using arpeggio techniques rather than strumming for 4-chord pieces, voicing and fingerstyle techniques, in short, expanding the instrument's playing fields and playing skills to keep progressing in your game and improve your rehearsals ...) If you make a request, this program is obviously accompanied by the pleasure of learning more in theory and being able to directly apply new knowledge on its instrument and identify its common or rare use in the pieces discussed in class. In this case, the theory is translated to be accessible to anyone, both for those who are connoisseurs and for those who discover everything from absolute zero. The exercises, songs, and theoretical explanations offered throughout the program are organized in an order of progressive difficulty. I wrote and produced 2 books of my method to learn the guitar and the music, that I sell to accompany my course and your apprenticeship in the best conditions and so that you can continue the course even at home and to review etc ... . There is ONE BOOK OF COURSES containing all the theoretical and practical program of the year, as well as a BOOK OF EXERCISE on the ranges and the modes that you can obtain directly. You can find here an indicative list of objectives that I propose in my theoretical program, which can of course adapt to your request. The general theoretical objectives of the course: --- Tuning / tuning and knowing his guitar: * Standard Tuning * Drop Tuning * Open Tuning * Adjust the optimal tension of the strings * Adjust the shaft axis * Adjust the action of the strings * Choose the strings adapted to the style of play / tuning * Change his strings -Know his chords: * Triads: Fundamental State & Inversions * Tetrads: Fundamental State & Inversions * The chord progressions of the Range * Arpeggio techniques (tapping, sweep, 1/2/4 fing.shape, etc ...) --- Know his scales and his modes * The Mode of the Major scale * 3 Modes of the Minor scale: Natural / Melodic / Harmonic * Modes of the Pentatonic range: 5 positions * Modes of the Blues range: 5 positions Etc ... --- Technique to the Pick / Plectrum / Tab / Pick (Electric Guitar): * Alternate Picking * Fast Picking / Tremolo Picking * Hybrid Picking * Palm Mute * Natural Harmonics * Pinch Harmonics * Artificial Harmonics * Shredding * Tapping * Sweep Picking * Legato Picking --- Strumming / Hand Picking (Acoustic Guitar) * "SnareDrum" percussion on the guitar * Arpeggios pinched with 4 fingers + thumb * Rasgueado (Flamenco Technique) * Generic Strumming * Fingerstyle Picking * Two-finger picking + Legato for fast melodies (eg a solo) -Play the metronome * exercises on click * practice on song riffs -Learn his favorite songs * without thinking about the difficulty, nothing is impossible with the right methodology -Improvise * choose ranges and positions * to place oneself rhythmically, to finish on the judicious notes -Theory of Harmony * Understand harmonization and its practice -Theory on the Melody -Theory of Rhythm

Lou-Indigo

Lou-Indigo is hands-down the best teacher I have ever had the pleasure of learning music from. Having been taught by a number of music teachers for a variety of different instruments, I have experienced a range of different teaching styles and personalities, yet nobody has been able to keep me focused and captivated by music in the way that Lou-Indigo does. In the past, music lessons would always bore me, as I found that my perspective of music being an outlet of creativity would often be tarnished by previous teachers who took too much of a strict, structural approach to music. On the other hand, some other teachers would be too relaxed, often leading to me becoming frustrated by a lack of progress and direction. Lou-Indigo manages to skillfully combine structure, creativity and a relaxed atmosphere into a 60-minute lesson. I am the complete opposite of bored and genuinely look forward to every lesson. Instead of feeling drained after sessions, I feel inspired to learn more. In my opinion, Lou-Indigo does this by crafting just the right amount of challenge into each exercise, enough to give you a sense of progress and achievement, but not too much to make you feel frustrated or overly daunted. Furthermore, his clear explanation of music theory and guitar techniques, evidently backed by years of experience, gives you a deeper insight into music, uncovering the medium's potential for creative expression. I could not recommend Lou-Indigo more.

Great teacher! I started acoustic guitar lessons from zero and I have learned so much with Sergio, he is an excellent teacher, very knowledgeable and patient, he also encourage you to keep practicing to achieve your goals while providing you with very useful material to do it. I really recommend Sergio as a music teacher, he plays a lot of instruments. Excelente profesor, yo empecé clases de guitarra acústica desde cero y he aprendido mucho con Sergio, sabe mucho y es muy paciente, además te anima a seguir practicando para que alcances tus metas y te provee muy buen material para lograrlo. Súper recomiendo a Sergio como profesor de música, sabe tocar muchos instrumentos.

Mary has been great in our interactions. At the moment, we are meeting twice a week for an hour each session. She started with a class in which we got to know each other and she listen to my goals. Then, she prepared exercises and lessons specially designed to help me reach those goals with practice and also prepared lessons to help me continue growing as a guitar player. Moreover, she goes often out of her way to get songs challenging to my level, but that are doable with enough practice. In all, I am enjoying quite a lot of our classes and I am always looking forward to them.
