The BEST Ukulele Warm-up Exercise!

Are you looking for the perfect ukulele warm-up exercise? If so, you are in the right place! I get asked the question, "What's a great warm-up routine?" more than just about any other in my private lessons. In today's video I go into detail with "the caterpillar", my favorite finger exercise, and break it down into three levels, from an absolute beginner method, all the way to the more advanced form I still use today.
Chapters:
00:00 Intro
00:36 Demonstration
01:49 Level ONE
05:35 Level TWO
10:26 Level THREE
14:45 Wrap-Up

Matt, thank you for this video. Your pace is appreciated - not too slow - and your explanations make sense.

[@margielandis2015]

A great exercise and excellent demo.

[@kayamalcolm161]

Such a great, exercise> For a long time I was wondering where the fluency in play is coming from. Having tried to teach myself since 3 years. Matt is my first teacher, but certainly more like a PROFESSOR !

I'm so happy I found your site! I've learned a lot just from from the couple of lessions I've seen! Are you on Patrion?

[@paulferris4123]

Hey Matt, I’d just like to let you know that I find your tutorials very helpful and enjoyable. Thank you and Take Care. T. Ferris

[@MattDahlberg]

Thank you so much!

[@jcneedles388]

Love your teaching style. Found you on your other channel.

This exercise also kinda sounds like a caterpillar along with looking like one! A tricky, tricky caterpillar climbing a uke flower stem. Also that counting was impressive! 😅

[@georgeandyrose]

Very nice exercise! Especially valuable, I think, for training my pinky, which is weaker and under less control. Matching the left and right hands for a steady legato sound is also a challenge.

[@lizpolido8429]

Mahalo and Along 😊

What edition do you start at? I'd like to start from the beginning. I've been "noodling" around with the ukulele for quite some time and can never hit the strings at the same spots everytime. Sometimes I get frustrated and put the uke down for a couple of weeks. But because of my ADHD I almost have to start at the beginning again! BTW... I'm a 74 year old Navy Veteran!

I love the fret markers on your ukulele. What make is it?

[@MattDahlberg]

Kanile’a ukulele!
