José Dueñas León
My Flamenco guitar journey began aged 9 in Córdoba Spain with my uncle Antonio Dueñas León, he was a professional guitarist performing and recording with celebrated dancers like Ciro, and singers such as Juanito Valderrama and Maria la Talegona. He shared with me his priceless knowledge, experience, and skills and continues to be my deepest inspiration.
I perform in the UK and internationally with my sister the dancer Ana Dueñas León in our co-founded company Amor Flamenco.
I have performed in Spain, Dubai, France, Morocco, Istanbul, S. Asia and in the UK at The Pavilion Theatres in Brighton and Worthing, Winchester Cathedral, The Hawth, Crawley, The Saatchi Gallery, The Khalifa Stadium Qatar amongst many others.
I am a prolific songwriter/producer in multiple genres with music appearing in Hollywood romantic comedy films, prime TV gritty police dramas and online advertising. Aired by media heavyweight such as Netflix, Fox, NBC, A+E, my music is heard in dozens of productions including What Men Want, Ugly Betty, Blue Bloods, The Rookie, Better Call Saul. Gotham. Queen of the South, Roswell New México. Los Bandoleros (Vin Diesel) and more.
I can teach in English Spanish French and Italian and hold an Enhanced DBS certificate.

Flamenco 1 week retreat Cortijo Romero Granada Spain
Every year I lead a one-week guitar course at Cortijo Romero in the idyllic mountains of Granada in Spain.
THIS YEAR-September 9th-16th 2023
My sister Ana teaches Flamenco dance during the same week. Both classes join at times on each study day sharing a unique opportunity to learn together.
Guitar students develop the crucial skill of solid rhythmic feel and timing to accompany dancers and singers (Ana and I both sing for classes), along with the finesse and subtlety to play ‘falsetas’ (melodic variations).
Many of our UK and international students return every year to enjoy the week with us sharing learning, good food, sunshine and fun!
