Technique

We will learn how to properly execute all the modern electric or acoustic guitar techniques. Through specific exersises and while developing the right mentality. Also focusing on natural movement and posture. Thus, we will be able to play whatever we dream of, never getting stuck in our playing and keeping injuries away.

Fingerboard Knowledge

Visualising the fretboard in multiple levels. From knowing our notes, chords and scales to much more complex patterns that we will combine with theory, technique and improvisation. With very simple step-by-step methods the fretboard will be so well visually constructed in our mind , that looking at it will seem like a ”cheat sheet”.

Music Theory

From playing to… Knowing what we are playing . ”Why this chord ?”, “Why this scale ?”. In theory we find the answers for those who pursue a deeper musical knowledge and care about commmunicating with other mucisians, Improvising, analysing songs and writting their own music.

Improvisation

Learning songs, solos, phrases or riffs that we always dreamed of playing. Something that is very entertaining and satisfactory but also very useful. Copying all the ”sounds” other guitar players make through the guitar and borrowing ideas , will later help us create our very personal sound and style.

Repertoire - Musical Vocabulary

One of the most creative processes of the electric and the acoustic guitar. Combining all the knowledge we have built but also the experience from the music we have listened to, through the years. We create our own solos, on the spot. A very special mental and physical experience. Improvisation is something we focus quite a lot on, during our Blues and Jazz classes.

This is the 2nd year that I have been a student of Dimitris and I highly recommend him as a guitar teacher.Dimitris stands out for his exceptional ability to impart his knowledge and love for the guitar. It fits the course completely around my work and family commitments, which allows me to progress without stress, despite the demands of my daily life. Dimitris' flexibility and willingness to support make his lessons a pleasant experience.

Guitar lessons with Dimitris were exactly what I needed to improve as a musician. He was patient and understanding. I started with little guitar experience, but within a few months I saw great progress in my playing. I highly recommend!

Jim is a very experienced teacher with a personalized approach that has helped me make significant progress in playing the guitar. He not only focuses on technique but also cultivates musical taste and understanding of theory. Jim explains complex concepts in a clear way and is always open to questions. Highly recommended!
Fabulous teacher!! Highly recommend!!!
Jim's both an incredible guitar player and a great guitar teacher, with a rich repertoire of skills and styles. Despite starting from scratch, I noticed a huge difference in my playing technique after just six months of guitar lessons. His patience and encouragement are key to transfering knowledge effectively. I would definitely recommend him as a guitar teacher for all ages.

Excellent teacher!! my teen son has been with him for 1 year now and his technic on the electric guitar has improved impressively. He has motivated him and challenged him to constantly improve without loosing the love and passion for music. Would recommend him for any age and any level.
