It’s never too late to learn the guitar! (Strumming with a Pick)
So I realized it is never too late to learn the guitar!
I am no Carlos Santana by any means but it’s awesome that since September, slowly but surely I’m starting to hear a tune on my guitar.
Being a mom of two, a full time teacher it’s been hard to practice every day, but somehow I have been managing to squeeze time in for guitar practice.
The picking of the guitar has had some challenges for me. But to play the guitar I have learned that you have to:
1-pick a great song
2-know your chords
3-practice (a lot)
4-know the strumming and rhythm technique together with using a pick.
Eventually I will add some singing to my guitar playing which I am sure you are all excited to see and listen to.
I recently checked out Jerry at : https://www.jerrysguitarbar.com
Jerry suggests using your arm instead of just your wrist and this has been a helpful hint for me, b/c I am still such a stiff guitar player
Here are my latest videos:

Can you here a bit of “Feliz Navidad” fellow EC & I 831 classmates?
