The Creative Improvisation Mentorship is a 12-month group coaching program led by Tom Cykman, a guitarist and educator known for his practical and modern approach to improvisation.
You’ll have 12 live sessions (one per month) where you’ll learn how to develop your improvisation with harmonic depth, creative freedom, and real musical intention. Each class explores an essential topic — from melodic construction to advanced harmonic tools — always with practical applications, live demonstrations, and space for personalized questions.
In addition to the live sessions, mentees will get access to:
- Recordings of all sessions so you can review them anytime
- PDFs and support materials with exercises, analysis, and applied concepts
- An exclusive Telegram group for updates, community interaction, and direct connection with Tom

- More musical solos – Play with intention, not random phrases;
- Harmonic mastery – Use chords and modulations freely;
- Phrases with identity – Develop your personal improvisation style;
- Theory in action – Apply concepts in a truly musical way;
- Clarity when soloing – Know what to play and how to shape ideas;
- Guided progress – Evolve with Tom’s feedback and direction.
Over the past few years, I’ve been teaching guitarists through programs like Advanced Improvisation, Symmetrical Scales – Outside Sonorities, and Rhythmic Displacement.
Many of them came in with doubts, insecurities, and an improvisation style limited to repetitive formulas. And they left playing with much more freedom, intention, and harmonic awareness.
And if you’re already one of my students…
This is your chance to take your studies even further, with a live, group-based experience, where I can guide you more closely, answer your questions, give you personalized feedback, and help you connect all the dots.
The Creative Improvisation Mentorship is the ideal next step for those who want to truly consolidate their knowledge and keep evolving with consistency.

IMMEDIATE ACCESS!!
No. This mentorship is for guitarists who already have some foundation — you know basic chords, use scales, and can improvise, even if you feel unsure. If you’re at an intermediate level and want to grow with guidance, this is for you.
Yes, all sessions are live on Google Meet. But no worries — every session is recorded and made available for you to watch anytime.
The sessions happen once a month, and dates are always announced in advance through the exclusive VIP Telegram group for mentees.
You’ll have full access to the sessions, recordings, and materials for 12 full months — following the entire mentorship journey.
Absolutely! You can ask questions live during the sessions or anytime through the Telegram group, where Tom and the team provide close support.
