Build Your Flamenco Technique Routine
About Build Your Flamenco Technique Routine
In this seminar we’ll learn how to build a technique routine that will maximize your progress in flamenco. We will explore six core techniques used in flamenco guitar. For each technique, we will cover several exercises of various difficulty levels. Beginners will stick to the introductory exercises, and advanced players will focus on the exercises that challenge them. You’ll choose the exercises most appropriate for your current level to build a 15-20 minute routine to supplement and strengthen your regular practice.
Class Goals
Learn basic exercises to develop six fundamental guitar techniques:
1. Rasgueos (flamenco strumming)
2. Flamenco thumb technique
3. Alzapua (flamenco thumb strumming)
4. Picado (melodies)
5. Arpeggios
6. Tremolo
