For all those interested in flamenco dance, guitar, and singing, this live forum is to provide a platform to discuss topics of your choice, ask questions to the group, problem solve together, share your experiences, or just sit back and listen. Grab your lunch or a coffee and join “Let’s Talk Flamenco”!
Participants: I welcome your topics and questions on the fb event page. All questions are welcomed from the simplest to more advanced such as:
What is a palo and how do I start learning flamenco?
How do I practice when I don’t have a flamenco community to work with?
How can I improve my skills when I only have recordings or method books?
How do I make the material I learn from workshops work with dancers, guitarists, and singers?
How do I get the guitarist to hit the correct chords when I sing?
How can I respond to cante without getting stuck in my choreography?
What do I change in my playing to better accompany a dancer?
