It's always helpful to have as much materials as we can in order to learn flamenco, especially when Juan Martin is an excellent professional. I have the 3 VHS cassettes and books (advertised as having over 100 pages etc). Now, the books are ok. They may have over 100 pages of music each but the format is horrible, sort of a third of an A4 page. So, in the end, there is not a lot in it. I also find it particularly annoying for Juan Martin or his commercial agent to decide on the layout of the book i.e. if you want to learn Rumba, you'll have to buy at least two of the three books. You got the first part of the Rumba in volume 2 and VHS 2, the second part of the same Rumba in volume 3 and VHS 3. I'm referring to the La Guitarra Flamenca - Learn Flamenco Guitar with Juan Martin. I don't have the DVD, this may be a different series. One could probably say that in this instance, Juan Martin is a better businessman than a teacher.
