https://twitter.com/TakeLessonsAre you learning the guitar, and find that you’ve got the chord basics down? Ready to learn some strumming patterns, so you can play music in different styles?
Strumming is one of the cornerstones of guitar technique, and simply changing up the rhythm of your strumming can transform the entire feel of a guitar song; from blues to rock, folk to honky tonk, reggae to Broadway musical. Some people would say that rhythm is the most important part of your musicianship, and nothing is more rhythmic than the way that you strum.
That’s what’s covered in this video. Here, you’ll learn simple patterns that you can incorporate into your playing, and you’ll learn to count those patterns so that you can communicate your song’s rhythm to other musicians or read it in sheet music. Finally, you’ll get to practice playing in rhythm while also switching between chord shapes. This way, you can both keep the time of the song, and play the unique notes in the song - all at the same time.
Play along with a professional guitar player in this engaging video that will get you tapping your toes, strumming along, and launching your guitar technique to the next level when you can coordinate between both your right and left hands.
