Description

In this course, I'll be explaining all the 8 basic Techniques for Flamenco Guitar. It includes thorough explanations, with tips and basic exercises for each technique. The techniques are the following:

1- Arpeggio Technique

2- Pulgar Technique

3- Picado Technique

4- Rasgueado Technique (Fingers)

5- Tremolo Technique

6- Alzapua Technique

7- Rasgueado Technique (Abanico)

9- Golpe Technique


This course is highly recommended for beginners, as it will guide you through all the basics that you'll need to get started.

I also talk and display "points" in the video regarding remarks about what to do/not to do when playing certain techniques.


It is important to watch every video carefully, and pay attention to the points I display in the videos. I recommend writing them down on a piece of paper, and making sure you follow all the remarks as you're playing.
Flamenco Guitar in general is quite complicated and requires a lot of patience just like other subjects, so please make sure you give each technique at least 3 to 4 days time in order to digest the information fully before moving onto the next technique


After you finish this course, I hope that you'll have a much better understanding towards the techniques that are used in Flamenco Guitar. Hopefully it will inspire you to start playing more seriously and learning new pieces along the way.


Although this course is initially intended for Beginners, Intermediate levels are also welcome. You can use to brush up on your technique and make sure you are on the right track.

Please enjoy!
All the best,

Luciano
