I just came back from Jerez. I was there for the past month and 1/2. I studied with Jose Luis Balao a.k.a El Maestro and Santiago Moreno. They are both great teachers. Jose Luis Balao has been playing guitar for 58 years and has over 250 compositions that are tabbed out. he is a musical GENIUS!!! he is a great teacher and really loves to teach. when he was much younger he used to work together with El Carbonero. They had a falling out are each teaching independently. I took lessons with both El Carbonero and Jose Luis Balo “El Maestro”. I must say El Maestro is much more opened and his music is what is making me a much better flamenco guitarist. All of Balao’s students are amazing and the most respected guitarist in Spain.
If you are in Jerez you MUST check him out. He actually has a website that someone recently set up for him: balaoelmaestro.com. The address of his school is Calle Gaspar Fernandez, No. 12 or maybe 14. Its right off of Calle Arcos. You can just walk in. It is a very casual setting (like El carbonero), but WAY BETTER!
Good luck!! If you have any questions please contact me at anytime!
Abrazos,
Elysa
