Hello; new member

Hi there,

As I'm new here a little introduction. I'm 28 years old, I live in Holland and I'm hooked on flamenco guitar ever since I came back from my first trip to Andalusia back in the summer of 2006. I started practicing flamenco techniques on a classical guitar. Exercises and practice material I found mainly on the web. In 2008 I found a flamenco teacher nearby and took my first classes with him. Due to financial issues I can't afford classes right now, so I'm back on mu own, practicing and looking for new material to internalize all techniques I was taught.

With much interest I've been following the forum for quite a while now. I hope I can contribute a bit to the discussions and mainly learn a lot from all you folks around here!

Cheers!

Welcome! Don´t worry.. Im also a self-taught guitarist and it worked and still works fine for me :.)
I got the latest ability-boost from our recent challenges. It really brought me a big step further and I´m now on the way to play an awesome composition that I was never able to play before. I can only say..the challenges are good.. Join the challenges, its good for you!
