Training & Coaching

Training @ Musicwork.shop

In my workshops you can become more creative through discovering your own voice. I live and work in Oegstgeest (near Leiden), but I can also come to you. I organize my writing workshops online, as well.
The above rates apply to individual registrations. I will customize my offer for groups and businesses. The prices are without value added tax.

What do you bring with you?

  • You get to formulate your own learning goals or wishes, the more concrete the better. What obstacles do you feel you want to remove? Think about what you trust.
  • We agree on a common path and what we expect from each other.

Learn to follow your curiosity while writing

With me you will learn

  • how to write a personal text based on simple principles.
  • that you can turn any text into its opposite and thus achieve very surprising effects.
  • what an impact your texts written in a short time can have.

Making music and composing together opens up new worlds

In the music workshops every voice counts. You get to listen to yourself and also the others. While composing in small groups you work out creative solutions together. I encourage and provide support where necessary. In feedback rounds you help each other to optimize your first results. The final composition consists of the artistic material of all small groups.

Personal guidance or sparring partner

Do you want to carefully consider a decision or question, or are you looking for a helpful change of perspective? With me you can put your arguments openly and honestly on the table. I listen actively and in an open dialogue we explore alternatives and perspectives. As a trainer, coach and person, my perspectives are constantly on the move. I am happy to share this mobility with you.

‘Opening ourselves up to music is transformational’

I believe that how we experience of music, either making it or hearing it, is one of the unique experience that humans can have and separates us from machines and computers. So, opening ourselves up to music is transformational for how we live as individuals and in relation to other people. In Michael’s music workshop, it was wonderful to break my thinking patterns and just be open to the music around me. I was amused to play and appreciate some new rhythms and tones we made together. Michael was able to create a safe and playful space where we were the instruments of someone magical and mystical. It was a wonderful cleansing and we all, young and old, should take it often.

‘A strong push in the right direction.’
I attended the Writing Workshop with Michael. It is inspiring to find your own style and compare that to others’. The art of ‘killing your darlings’ is something we need work on our entire life. This workshop gave me a strong push in the right direction.
