Guitar course in Granada/Seville

Hi,

I'm planning to take a flamenco guitar course in south of Spain (Granada/Seviile) in March/April for about 2 month.

I'm not a novice. I play for few years Flamenco and I guess I'm medium level.

The main objective is to learn to accompany Flamenco Dancers.

The language could be Spanish.

Does anybody have a good experience with school in that area?
I'd love to get good advice and recommendations on schools.

Thanks,

I've not had guitar classes myself but know many people who have had classes with Emilio both when he was working at Carmen Las Cuevas and at his own school. He's a personal friend so maybe it doesn't mean much for me to recommend him. I know he is a brilliant player with years of experience and that people say he is an excellent teacher. Sometimes his schedule can be erratic when he has gigs and if that is an issue then maybe you'd prefer Carmen Las Cuevas with a set timetable. I have had dance classes with Maica in her cave Retama, and she is a lovely person, again a friend, who could help with learning to accompany dance. I may be worth sending her an email to ask her. She is in India right now but will still get her emails and she speaks English,

Kate
