Who are they for?

The courses are aimed at any non-beginner guitarist – versed in theory or not – who wishes to experiment with his creativity.

The way we do this?

In both individual and group courses, working 5-6 hours a day.

 

We will work on : 

  • Sound, touch and musicality

  • Picking

  • Improvisation, a state of being that transforms both the music and the player!

As preparation for the course, we advise you to get a copy of the ‘Aborder le picking’ by Michel Gentils.  This method informs the educational approach taken by Michel. You can buy one from the website shop.

You are also welcome to bring along your own pieces so we can study them together.

  • 12-string guitar

If asked for, certain specific compositions by Michel can be worked on.
