Right Hand Posture in Flamenco Guitar

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. Please see the next segment for right hand flamenco guitar techniques
