Add Spanish fire to the guitar you already play: rasgueado, rumba rhythm and the Three-to-One rule for improvisation
What you'll learn
Play rasgueado, golpe and graneado, the core right-hand techniques of flamenco guitar
Play rumba flamenca rhythms on any two chords and combine patterns into a groove
Use the Andalusian cadence and the open por arriba sound to make your playing sound Spanish
Improvise with the Three-to-One rule to add Spanish color without overdoing it
Practice efficiently with a simple 10-minute daily planRequirements
A guitar: nylon-string is ideal, but steel-string or electric also works
You can change between basic chords like C, F and G
No flamenco experience and no long nails neededDescription
This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.
You can play the chords. You can play songs. But when you try Spanish music, it still sounds like a normal guitar playing Spanish notes.
That's not your fault, and it's not your chords. The Spanish sound lives in your right hand and in the rhythm. Nobody shows it to you up close. This course does.
What happens to your playing
The songs you already know start to sound different. A simple pop song becomes a rumba.
Two chords are enough to sound like a little street in Seville.
When you jam with friends, you have a sound nobody else has.
How it works
Every lecture is short and focused on one idea. I explain it in simple words, then I play it for you, slowly and clearly, with the camera on my right hand. Watch, then try. No rush.
You'll learn
Rasgueado, golpe and graneado, the three right-hand sounds of flamenco
Rumba patterns you can use on any two chords, and how to mix them
The open por arriba sound and the Andalusian cadence
The Three-to-One rule: a simple way to add Spanish color to your solos without overdoing it
You don't have to become a flamenco guitarist. Keep your own style and add the spice. A little goes a long way.

Use of AI in this course
The narration in this course is generated with an AI voice tool (ElevenLabs) from a clone of my own voice, so that every explanation is clear and easy to follow. AI tools also assisted with the English wording of the scripts and with some of the illustrations. All guitar performances are real recordings of me playing, and the teaching method and all musical examples are my own.
Who this course is for
Pop, rock, folk, jazz or classical guitarists who want a Spanish sound
Players who know their chords but feel their Spanish music sounds flat
