12/03/2012	Sebastian from Germany writes: It would be nice to have baby steps in the video (that was is written down) to follow directly, but nevertheless great rhythm patterns. One of the best Bulerias compas lessons I´ve come across so far.
10/31/2011	Paul from Annapolis, Maryland writes: Direct, to the point, very well done. The slow versions are great for breaking down the mechanics. I like the written descriptions of the beats and the "and"s. The multiple camera views are very well shot and allow you to look for subtleties. Obviously very thoughtfully put together. Not overwhelming, very managable.

04/08/2009	Abe from Hawaii writes: So far, this has been the best for exact strumming on exact compas beats in Bulerias. Nobody has done this yet. And most books out there have great falsetas, but do not take the time to teach the fundamentals. Without fundamentals, falsetas are worthless. I highly recommend this to any Flamenco enthusiast, so that they can walk before they run. Also recommended if you plan to take your bulerias to the outside world and prove to the world that you are the real deal (in compas!)
02/02/2009	El Zacko from Mexico writes: Ricardo's lessons are always good! I learnt bulerias from a teacher in Spain a few years ago but I took this lesson to get another perspective and get confidence I was doing it correctly.

12/23/2007	Bill Short from Salt Lake city writes: straight forward and easy to follow. the video is great for developing a feel for a difficult rythum. I have had instruction on a group level and it was helpful, but your lesson has greatly increased my ability to achieve buleria's. I am looking forwa

10/20/2006	Mohammed Baluch from Florida writes: Bulerias is one of the most difficult rhythms to master and Senor Ricardo has done a magnificent job of breaking it down into its components so that aspiring flamenco guitarists can add it to their repertoire with some practice.

04/18/2005	Neil Sullivan from perth wa aust writes: As with many of the videos, this one doesn't sync on starting. The sound comes in before the image, I think? The videos where there is some talk first don't have this problem as there is some lead-in time before the playing. So some lead-in t
