Updating a previous review where I left 4 stars due to the UI in the app- after a month of using this daily, the amazing quality of the content makes the small quirks more than worth it. I’ve taken quite a few online courses- for work, school, and hobbies- I’ve even helped build and design courses for top tier universities- and I can definitively Kai’s Ultimate Flamenco course is the single best online course I’ve ever encountered. His videos are well thought out and make learning flamenco incredibly approachable, enjoyable, and have done wonders to correct flaws in my technique that I wasn’t aware of. At the end of the first full course, I felt comfortable playing basic soleras, and more importantly felt like I understood the basics behind the music and have a clear understanding of how to progress. This is significantly underpriced- I’d easily expect to pay 2-3x this amount for the sort of impact it’s had on my guitar.Update 2- 5 months in and still in love with the app and the content.

Flamenco Explained is a fabulous resource for anyone who wants to learn about how to play flamenco guitar, but it’s much more than that. Kai Narezo has gone to great lengths to provide depth and insight into the structures of flamenco compás, the evolution of various flamenco forms, and the culture of flamenco in general. In addition, Kai is extremely warm and responsive to questions and will try to address technical issues very specifically (sometimes with a video response, when possible). Tara Stewart has built an intuitive, comprehensive, and professional platform that provides a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Flamenco Explained is the closest that web learning can come to in person lessons and is very moderately priced. A joy.

I have only been playing Flamenco for a about a year at the time of this review... I absolutely love it! I am fortunate enough to have a great teacher locally to help guide me twice a month. I am also happy to have found Kai and his “Flamenco Explained" to fill in an supplement areas of technique / theory / history / etc... that an hour long lesson is limited by. With all of the videos and information here I am free at my will to explore an grow further with easy access especially if you have the iPhone app. Definitely happy to have Kai’s wealth of knowledge an passion for this beautiful music at my finger tips.

I’ve played Classical for a few years and Flamenco 6 months. I’ve watched a lot of fire players poorly explain their techniques. Kai is different. Not only is he a terrific player, he takes the time to properly explain the techniques/counts/feel you need to play flamenco. If you’re lucky enough to find a decent flamenco instructor and take personal lessons, do that and use this as a supplement. But if you can’t find someone, these lessons are the next best thing
