    I've been taking lessons in a group setting and individual with Chris Cucuzza for years. Whether a beginner or wanting to advance your flamenco skills further, I would highly recommend taking lessons with Chris. He is patient, skilled, inspired, funny, and very knowledgable. Chris can make the difference between mimicking a tab / song from a book and playing music with the real sound of Flamenco.

    Chris is an amazing Flamenco guitarist and one of the very few in the San Francisco Bay Area. His patience and dedication to detail in his craft of Spanish Flamenco Guitar are second to none. His private and group classes are affordable, his work demeanor is honest, and his commitment to getting his students to improve is second to none.
