#Posture #BodyAnatomy #Comparison
In this video, I am talking about the posture, (the three most common sitting positions for playing flamenco guitar), and I talk and compare the body anatomy (the arms) of 2 guitar legends Paco de Lucía and Vicente Amigo.

When I first started to analyse my hand and try to compare and "match" it with Paco, I noticed that there are just many things that I felt are just impossible to copy, even just simply placing the arm on the guitar, I found so much difficulty to get it like him. Copying Vicente's posture I was totally ok with it, which got so confused and wondered for a very long time, "why is that?".
We, (or most of us I guess), just get so amazed by Paco's hand and fingers and the way they move, it gets all of our attention right? Until I noticed one day, "Oh my god.. Look at his arms!" It changed the way I see Paco's technique, I noticed it's just useless to try to copy, as his body is completely different it will never work for me personally exactly the way it did for him, (because I'm not Paco!).
In this video, I explain and show you with pictures what I'm talking about exactly, (It's nothing special, but it's just something we need to keep in mind!).
I hope this information helps and give you a better understanding on how to approach the technique in guitar, as it greatly did to me.
Thank you for watching and I'll see you next time,
Warmest Regards,
