Today we are learning how to strum the ukulele. This is a video for ukulele beginners who are having a difficult time positioning the hand, experiencing pain while strumming, and/or lacking coordination.

Many popular songs use the strumming pattern D-DU-UDU (down, down-up, up-down-up), but that strumming pattern takes a lot of coordination. Some people need a little more guidance and support before they can make that pattern happen seamlessly. If that’s you, you’re in the right place.

I created this 5-day course (videos are below) to help you take baby steps. I recommend that you watch the whole course without your ukulele first and get an idea of what you’ll need to do. After watching the entire series, grab your uke and follow along!

See you in the videos!

Love,

Bernadette
