Rasgueado is a guitar technique employed in classical and flamenco styles of guitar playing, allowing one to create rhythmically precise, and often rapid, strumming patterns. There are several types of rasgueado, but the two main divisions are those that employ the forearm and thumb in conjunction and those that incorporate only the fingers. Of course, both approaches can be combined to allow for the use of all digits on the hand.

Although originating in the classic tradition, the technique is most often associated with flamenco.
