Holla, I think for advance players, what you explain will not bring much, as they certainly do that intuitively or consciously. For me, after 3 or so years of flamenco, it's an interesting methodic way to experience. Not groundbreaking, but interesting. I'm certainly now gonna try it with different sentences I've learned. That aside, I think that the lego thing for the beginning is a very good idea. You're idea seems really good and I think you're onto something here. I've learned the basics of flamenco on youtube, and I haven't come across a good pedagogic method. The lego thing could be something, but I think it would require some more developement. That said, learning flamenco is like learning alchemy (except you try to change lead in pdl, not gold) and that is one thing that I like about it. It's fuzzy, full of different informations, Full of traps, Aha moments, and you just have to try and try...and regularly you die and your laboratory explodes. If it was like totally outlined and a well defined freeway, that would be boring. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for your reply! I loved the image of the lab explosion :-))) I use LEGOs in many different ways and I'm developping the concept in other YT videos and in my classes. It helps a lot for rhythm, structures, letras... Many people suddenly understand the "modularity" of flamenco. Most of us are "visuals". We need to see, visualize what's happening. As you said, no straight path, confusion, contradictions, versions, interpretations. It is not science, it's art. This is the charm of oral traditions and rich musics and art forms. It can also be very frustrating, time and money consuming... Short story: I'm trying to explain the way I would have loved to be teached. It's difficult enough when you have reliable informations :-) Saludo Guille
