The Courses
Enjoyable Practice
Easy-to-follow lessons and simple musical exercises are the foundation of this course. You’ll be guided through an enjoyable practice routine. Every lesson is rooted in real music, repertoire, and listening, so learning stays musical, not abstract.
The Music Theory We Need
Music comes before theory, and that’s how it works in Guitar Basement. Music Theory can be challenging, but it doesn’t have to be boring. Learn music theory step by step in a practical way, with real musical references on guitar.
The Community
Building a direct connection with students is a key part of Guitar Basement, giving them the opportunity to ask questions, request specific topics, and take part in community events – both online and in person in Copenhagen – such as masterclasses or casual drop-in hangouts.
“The best part of teaching is the process of discovering and understanding my students’ needs and helping them play what they desire. That’s one of the most satisfying feelings I have ever experienced.”
