[@madster01]

What did I learn from this video: 1. How to palm mute 2. “Muteflick” 3. The teacher is beautiful

[@CKC298]

This is the only video that mentions how to chuck on an up strum! Thank you!

[@OneMusicSchool]

Yeah! I’m so happy that you liked this video and that it helped. I need to do more muting, left hand muting, and scratching tutorials for the future 😀😀.

[@DavidGarcia-kd8nu]

It seems so simple but i cant get it. Its impossible to strum while setting your palm down all in one instance because you either smack your palm too hard, or the strings buzz still. Hknestly Whats the diference between that and just slapping the body to mute the strings

[@OneMusicSchool]

That's a good question. The chucking allows you to keep the motion of strumming while playing. The slapping or muting with your palm can work, but ti takes more time and would be difficult if you wanted to strum faster. Don't give up. It may take some time, so keep practicing. I didn't get it right away either :).

[@DavidGarcia-kd8nu]

One Music School thank you for the reply and also have to say i have gotten significantly better with chucking.

[@OneMusicSchool]

YEAH!!! I'm so happy for you :). Pushing through frustration is tough, buts rewarding on the other side. I'm so proud of you!!!!

[@sarahkokko6987]

I so agree. Such a pain. Lol I hope to get it soon!

[@user-im4my8hg3d]

I was wondering why I couldn't do the chuck and it turns out I've been pressing the strings too hard and bringing my palm down too quick! It created this horrific buzzing noise but now I can do good chucks!! Thank you so much :)

[@steffywhoelse]

This!! Helped me a lot! I had the same problem.

[@babeswatanabe]

long hours palm chucking practise...hands n wrist in pain😆 and before i chuck my ukelele in the corner.....i finally did it😱😱😆 am on my polishing practice now......yeheyyyy💃💃💃. thanks so much to u.

You made my day!!! I'm so happy that this helped you! Thank you so much for watching, and I hope this channel continues to help you.

[@roberthicks8985]

I'm so frustrated but having so much fun learning. I have a major issue with the palm chuck. I'll keep working at it. Thank you so much for making this so much fun.

[@russelhazzard7089]

Thank you Katie, I'm finding your chuck strumming technique a lot more helpful and (to be honest) an easier technique than the technique I was trying to follow on KZbin. I guess that's just the way it is, some techniques one finds easier to follow than others, it does not mean however that the other technique is wrong.

[@strinh808]

Thank you so for much for covering the palm technique! All the other videos I found only mentioned the muting with your thumb technique which I was struggling with a lot. The palm technique was a lot easier for me!

[@cindyrroberts]

Thank you so much! I have been struggling with chucking (especially when there is an unmuted "up" after a chuck). I have watched many videos, tried all different kind of methods, and could not get. However, today I found your video and tried the mute/flick technique and got it instantly! Thanks.

[@russcorbett3923]

Thank you so much for this !!! the " mute flick " is the one that sounds the best to me and I'm trying to learn that one . Thanks so very much !!

[@shaifafarooqui6861]

ahhhh its working!! thank you!!! how fun it is to chuck!!

[@bobo9542]

How do you go up in the 3rd step cause I keep getting it wrong😔

[@OneMusicSchool]

I completely understand where you are coming from. The 3rd one was the hardest for me as well, and it took me months to get it. First, work on the fingers/thumb strumming, and the try just placing your palm on the strings to make the chucking sound without a chord. It may not sound the best at first, but keep practicing. It gets better over time. I hope that helps :). Keep playing, and you can do it!

[@LeilaDRalph]

Thank god there is the comment section. xD I´m not the only one having problems with the second technique. It´s good to read that for most people after nearly throwing the ukulele into a corner it started to work. So I will keep on trying!

[@OneMusicSchool]

You are most certainly not alone. Keep going! You can do it!

[@LeilaDRalph]

@@OneMusicSchool Thank you! I will.

[@LeilaDRalph]

@@OneMusicSchool Finally it works! I tried it wrong in the beginning. It looks like you mute and then strum but could it be that you strum and instantly mute? Because that way (for me) it works. I just have to mute fast enough after strumming.

[@agatheriopel8843]

I can't find a way to mute using my palm, whatever I do! I feel like I've tried every position I could possibly place my hand/wrist. Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong?

[@hannahmaxineortula106]

hi Katie your so cool i can chuck now thank super so much!😁😁

[@mitochondriaisthepowerhous3221]

I’m so confused I keep on getting a weird very high pitch buzzing like sound every time I try to mute/chunk The song is very fast so I need the palm mute but that buzzing noise won’t go away. Is there a way to prevent this?

Good ideas and I will try them. It would be nice if you could have demoed them with a song

[@namu1e]

Thank you ! Very good tutorial

[@ckrszy]

When I chuck it still make a sound... Not the chuck sound (left hand chuck)

[@OneMusicSchool]

Hmm, perhaps try touching the strings more lightly and release some of the pressure so that no stings are touching the frets. Another ting to try is to bring your hand closer to the body of the ukulele instead of trying to mute closer to the neck. I hope that helps :).

[@ckrszy]

One Music School oh... I see. Thank You!! 😁😁

[@nadelq.6476]

I love how she still sings the Down Up thing lol LOVEE YOUU 💘💘

[@pv43]

For the second way to chuck͵ do you hit your palm all the way on the board or just halfway? Because when I tried to chuck it didn't make a chucking sound·

[@OneMusicSchool]

Yes, your plam needs to make contact with the strings first to mute them before your finger or pick hits the strings. I hope that helps.

[@mmj9483]

My inner Ling Ling told me to practise. So I need to recover from my deep laziness and proceed to learn this chuck technique again.

Hey there, thank you for your videos. I have a tiny question, is it normal to feel some tension on the right shoulder while playing a song with "chuck"? I am learning to play "Sick of being told" and I am noticing a little tension on the right shoulder. I guess it is because of the chuck. Thank you teacher =)

In the 3rd type how is the muting happening,? There is no left hand or palm work.

[@OneMusicSchool]

The right palm is just resting on the strings while you strum with your thumb and finger. It’s meant for a quick mute if it’s too fast for a left handed mute.

i strum with my thumb, sometimes with my index finger or with the fingertip of my thumb and index finger either of those help me with chunking in the second way (i can't do the other ones, or i simply don't like them) help

[@OneMusicSchool]

You would have to learn how to strum with both your thumb and pointer finger in order to do the third technique, but the second technique is the most common. I think you'll be fine if you can't do the third one.

i have a lot of problems in muting when its down - up - mute specially when up comes after it again :/ im still learning how to strum, i always use a pick in guitar so using fingers is a bit weird for me still but i hate pick sound in ukulele! :/ but as time passes it gets easier, thats for sure im spamming your videos on my playlists cause its 6am now and im still awake but cant play at this time with the play long videos :p

[@OneMusicSchool]

I actually really try to respond to every comment, so no worries. I love talking with my subscribers. I would say that the last way to chuck is not very common, and the second way is the most common. I'm making a strumming video today and I'll have it posted soon about a few ways to strum the ukulele so that it doesn't sound muffled. Pretend like you have a pick between your pointer and thumb, and use the index fingernail to strum down and the nail and pad of your index finger to strum up. It's going to feel very strange at first, but you'll get used to it. Just try strumming slowly first. I hope that helps :).

[@kaylirrogers]

So...how do u chuck with a ukulele pick?

[@OneMusicSchool]

Instead of using your pointer finger, use the pick. Your palm is going to must the strings first. I would say that the first and second way to chuck would be your best option if you are using a pick. I hope that helps.

[@pair-of-socks1503]

When I do the palm chuck, it still makes a sound and I don't know what to do.....

[@OneMusicSchool]

Hmmm, it's probably because your finger is hitting the strings before your palm can fully mute the strings. Try using not only your palm but using the side of your pinky finger to help you mute as you chuck. I hope that helps. Let me know if it works or not.

[@amaokay2753]

I strum with my thumb, so how do I do this

[@OneMusicSchool]

Oh boy. That's a tricky thing. Usually when I see my students strum with their thumbs, I have them try to learn to strum with their forefinger so that they can eventually chuck and try different strumming patterns. I guess you could try using the heel of your palm instead of the outer portion under your pinky region. Maybe that would help.
