Hey everyone I am looking for recommendations for good flamenco guitar teachers in the LA area. I actually am in Las Vegas but know there are not any flamenco teachers out here. I would like to do at least one in person each month and probably will need to supplement that with Skype lessons.
Little bit of background, I studied classical in college and got a degree in performance. I have listened to flamenco for a few years now and done my best to take in what I can aurally. I work as a teacher and musician, but have been trying to learn flamenco more seriously over the last couple years through some books (koster, Graf-Martinez) and some videos.

So any suggestions for good instructors would be great.

Thanks

Would Bay Area be too far for you?



Leñador -> RE: Teacher in Los Angeles area (Mar. 10 2016 16:55:07)

Grisha would be a pretty stellar teacher.
If your stuck on LA I could help you. Depending on what your goal is musically I could recommend the right guy. Solo playing, dance accompaniment or baile accompaniment?



crooksj5 -> RE: Teacher in Los Angeles area (Mar. 10 2016 17:10:23)

Grisha- Normally I would say that would be too far but for someone of your caliber.... Hmm Let me think on the logistics some more.

Lenador- I would say mostly solo playing and possibly some dance accompaniment

I'll send you PM.

Any other recommendations from anyone for a teacher in Los Angeles.

Thanks!



Leñador -> RE: Teacher in Los Angeles area (Mar. 13 2016 1:58:48)

You're welcome btw. [8|]

Hey Lenador I never got a message from you, maybe a technical error



Leñador -> RE: Teacher in Los Angeles area (Mar. 13 2016 3:17:23)

Oh **** really????
I apologize for being a dock then lol.
I'll try again.

You may want to try Jose Tanaka if you don't mind his thick Japanese accent. Paco Arroyo is another flamenco instructor located in the Glendale area. He is a great guitarist, but, IMHO, expensive and not a very good instructor. Other guitarists include Antonio Triana, Benjamin Woods or you could also try Kai Narezo.



Cervantes -> RE: Teacher in Los Angeles area (Mar. 28 2016 19:50:04)

My first thought was Jose Tanaka. But I don't know if he is taking students. Tried contacting him once and never heard from him.
He has a web site but you can't contact anybody through it.



Leñador -> RE: Teacher in Los Angeles area (Mar. 28 2016 20:31:01)

Ben Woods and Jose Tanaka aren't taking students last I heard......
