Private Flamenco Guitar tutoring lessons Austin, TX.

I offer a unique range of styles on the guitar such as jazz , blues, r&b, spanish flamenco style, and classical style guitar playing methods. Along with these styles, I also teach the students how to improvise and apply theory to their playing. A great deal of in depth work really goes into this, but it really provides the student, as well as the teacher, a great educational experience.

welcome to the fantastic folk music of southern spain! as a flamenco student you will learn about the people, history, and styles of flamenco. this music is very accessible to new and intermediate students and stands out as a style that many people are unaware of and impressed by.

these techniques and pieces come directly from spain and will sound authentic, should you ever pursue studies abroad. each week you will be given material, which is graded from beginner to advanced, and will be practiced each week.

if you are unfamiliar with this style, check out Paco de Lucia, Vicente Amigo, Juan Martin, or Moraito on youtube; its a blast!

I am an entirely self taught blues/rock guitarist with experience playin in bands. I have an approach to teaching that is different from many regulay teachers. Being self taught, i have learned from trial and error how to keep inspiration while practicing techniques. In my opinion, the biggest setback for most future guitarists is lack of interest/inspiration wich is the direct result of poor teaching and unnecessary lessons.

I teach beginner to advanced flamenco technique. All 12 basic styles of flamenco and more will be covered: Rumba, Soleares, Alegrias, Bulerias, Colombianas, Farruca, Fandangos de Huelva, Guajiras, Verdiales Tarantos, Granadinas, Peteneras, etc.
