Join me in this 5 week course, and together we’ll unravel the mystery of improvisation. You’ll learn key soloing concepts that immediately give a solo direction and intention. This is not a course to learn how to shred thousands of notes but to learn to play the notes that matter. You’ll learn to tell a story and create beautiful melodies on the guitar.

★★★★★

Andre is an extremely dynamic teacher, and knowledgeable guitar player. I was looking to fill in some gaps in my self taught guitar playing and learn how to build chords/chord tones for my production projects. Upon finishing the first lesson, I already had so much new material to play with. Andre was able to give a very practical and tailored approach to teaching, I would recommend him to anyone looking for a new perspective on there instrument or theory.

Taylor Pritchard

Very very knowledgeable teacher, any way you want to go with your playing he will be able to lead you in the right direction. Has technical ability as well as real world knowledge about applying what you learn to your songwriting, improvisation etc. Highly recommend.

★★★★★

I’ve learned from Andre for about 8 months now and he has been hands down one of the most impressive, inspiring and individualized teachers I’ve ever had. Each new lesson it clearly showed how much he had thought and cared about each little inch of progress I could make on my guitar playing and would fine tune each lesson to suit my playing and learning goals. He is a brilliant mentor and I could not recommend him enough.
