Island Strum + Try Some Fun Variations with Play Along Exercises! Day 4/16 Days of Strumming

[@juanbriandoyle]

Hello Katie, its a pleasure to meet you. I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina and I've played guitar for fun all my life. Not very well, but i do enjoy myself when i do it. I'm a great fan of George Harrison who loved ukeleles, and always wanted to try. I bought my first uke a few weeks ago, not a very good one, but good enough to learn how to play a little. Found the chords online and started trying to play some beatle songs i know how to play the guitar. But something was missing. You. You are a great teacher and I cant thank you enough for all I'm learning with your videos.

[@TroyNaumu808]

Love the island strum. Its so versatile.

[@adityamajithia2375]

the best part about your videos is that you have a constant smile on your face while teaching and that's what motivates me to follow it further... and also you have made it so simple to learn... I honestly watch and play my ukulele side by side with your videos! thanks a lot for providing with such amazing lessons for beginners like us and keep up the awesome work.! much love and respect from India! ❤

[@OneMusicSchool]

Wow! Thank you so much for your kind words! I really appreciate your time, so thank you for spending it with me.

[@OneMusicSchool]

HEHEHEHE! Yes, when you know your family is happy, you gotta let the small stuff go.

[@caroll3207]

Your videos are so helpful! I'm 9 weeks in as a beginner and your instruction is just what I need at my level to help me move forward successfully. Your explanations and demonstrations are top notch.

[@OneMusicSchool]

I'm so glad that this is helping you :). I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. It means a lot.

[@ckingkoy]

[@kathleenmellow8963]

I like your videos. Thank you so much

[@BigGirlBlue]

Couldn't hear the laughter but I could hear the mowing. LOL. That's life though, right, it doesn't stop just because we are trying to do something. These are really great, thank you.

[@OneMusicSchool]

Oh totally! I just told another subscriber that as a part time KZbinr, this involves a lot of planning, taking advantage of what little time I have, and just plain going with the flow. Life happens in between all of those silly plans we make, right :).

[@BigGirlBlue]

@@OneMusicSchool I admire your dedication. I can't remember which video it was but you mentioned you were up at 4 am filming -- colour me impressed. LOL. We really do appreciate the hard work.

This is the 1st time I see you doing Island strum🤪

[@davemack7740]

always love your videos

[@elishaflores5643]

The only teacher here who interacts with her students on the comment section

[@donjanine2114]

Katie its Don in Florida, I enjoy the lesson today but I have to admit I'm not too coordinated with the thumb on the "and" up stroke part lol. It looks like it should be so easy to do but I get tongue-tied or should I say thumb tied LOL I'll keep practicing it but I love your lessons thank you🎶

[@OneMusicSchool]

Oh you're not alone on this one at all :). It took me FOREVER to coordinate the "strum" up with the thumb". One I got it, I never went back. Good to see you in the comments again.

[@janBergander]

i like the "brrrrraaa" part :)

[@OneMusicSchool]

I think it's super fun. I'm glad that you like it too.

[@Noleggeisha]

Loving the series but this definitely is too big a step for me. I just learned about the island strums and know I’m supposed to do variations 😂😂 Not happening ! I’ll check out next video but I suppose I’m just not a musician enough for strumming !

[@creativemindsonja]

I like also your channel visualy how it looks like. Which program do you use for editing your videos?

[@OneMusicSchool]

I use final cut pro, and I make all of the graphics.

[@annaloveless4107]

Thank you for your lessons. I am. having a little trouble keeping up with you, but I keep trying. I try to play hymns from 2 hymnals I have looking upon Search what chords to play, going with easy chords certain chords I have trouble with, but I still try.

[@Ewela2]

Great teaching! My question is: Do you play sometimes Hillsong United songs? Thanks!

[@OneMusicSchool]

Gracias por ver!

[@calvarychapelreynosa7406]

Thank you so much for explain the rythym and counting along with it. I gave a question? I am praciticing the song The Stand by Hillsong and the strumming pattern given was D UDUD UDUD DU, how could I divide that stemming pattern to fit into a 4/4? Thank you Katie for your help with all these videos may God continue to bless you and use you. Adriana Solis

[@rogersadler4989]

can i join in with a guiter this looks grate

[@OneMusicSchool]

Yes! The chord diagrams will be different from the uke diagrams shown in the videos, but the main concepts are the same. If you play the chords on the guitar along with me during the play alongs, they match.
