Hi I'm Mario Amaya and on behalf of Expert Village in this segment I'm going to tell you about the right hand posture when playing a flamenco guitar. The right hand should be in a really natural and comfortable position. But notice that my hand is not flat against the guitar like this but my wrist is sticking out a bit, so my fingers comes down almost perpendicular to the guitar's face. My thumb of my right hand is about in a 45 degree angle to the guitar this way and my fingers are approximately perpendicular to the strings.
