[quote=edshaw I think if you keep an open mind, apply yourself, and learn to apply the classical teaching methods to your chosen market, it could work out well. But, I think you will have to think outside the Flamenco and Latin sound and sell it as a most logical path toward mastery of the instrument. [/quote]

Ed, to add to this:

I start out each day playing Bach and Tarrega at eight in the morning as part of a routine.

If you want to give your fingers and heart a workout, try the Partita 1 in E Major from the Bach Lute Suite.

Sometimes it is about what is good for your soul and there does not need to be another reason.

Also, Flamenco and Latin are a subset of classical training, and involve different techniques, mostly percussive.

For true enthusiasts, there is no "box" in classical guitar. We/they are fanatical. It is the only instrument in the world (we would say) that is its own built orchestra, as Segovia first articulated, I believe. It think he was onto something there.
