A Guitar Instruction Intensive in Mexico
A week long Guitar Vacation Retreat in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico,
includes two hours daily (for 5 days) of customized private instruction in classical and
fingerstyle guitar technique and music theory for guitarists.
We introduce you to our style of playing as well as to our way of thinking about music.
(The idea of thinking about music at all is a new idea for many guitar players.)
We also include you in our music related activities outside of
class, listening to local musicians and taking in the sights and sounds of
San Miguel de Allende, a picturesque and historic colonial city founded in 1546.
We, Frances and Jack, are a professional guitar
duo who perform together regularly in San Miguel de Allende. (See the
About Us
button at the left.)
In the several years that we have been hosting Guitar Vacation Retreats,
we have worked with dozens of students, and
every Guitar Vacation Retreat has been a unique musical adventure!
In our Guitar Vacation Retreats program, we teach the tools of the
trade as we practice it.
Guitarists who want to play the way we do
will get the most from studying with us! Please feel free to browse our site
and listen to our MP3 files, and see if what we do inspires you.
Even if you don't want to play exactly the way we do, you may decide that
you might benefit from our perspective. We don't necessarily want you to play
exactly the way we do! We would prefer to think that we may assist you in opening
up your own unique creative process. For lots more information about the process, click
the "what we teach" button above left.
As working musicians we're busy with our own "prime directive"
creating and performing our own music
so we can accept only one or two students a month. You can check for our
available retreat schedule by sending the form at the top right corner of this page.
Ask about our discounts for students under 25.

"I think I can go as far as to say that my one week in San Miguel
was a life-changing experience. I learned many new things about my
capabilities (music-wise, language-wise and culture-wise) and this
opens up many new possibilities for me personally... You very quickly
devised music studies well-suited to my capabilities, which I believe will bear
fruit for me personally for a long time to come." (Doug)
The historic colonial city (pop. 140,000) of
San Miguel de Allende
is located in the central highlands of
Mexico, a day's drive from the Texas border, and 3 hours north of Mexico City.
San Miguel is an international artists' colony, with two art schools, many
galleries, and visitors from throughout the world. It also has a thriving
live music scene. Visitors are attracted by San Miguel's mild climate year-round,
its proximity to an international airport, and its colonial architecture,
colorful history, and authentic Mexican village charm.

available dates, or email us with your questions at this address:
