Flamenco guitar lessons/self study

June 15, 2006 9:10 AM

I play some classical guitar (mostly self-taught), and after watching a few flamenco videos on youtube and elsewhere, got enthusiastic about flamenco. How can I find a flamenco guitarist around Atlanta who would teach me? Are there good DVDs, or book/CD combinations for self-study?

I'd recommend Manuel Granados for self-study...

lilboo: Craigslist Atlanta has many ads for guitar lessons, but I haven't seen any for flamenco.

benzo8: Thanks for mentioning Granados, it looks pretty good. I haven't been able to see if the books have pictures for finger techniques from the site. I wonder if I would be able to figure them out from the books, without somebody showing how they are done.
