Participate in the April 2026 Member Challenge – WIN $2,095 Kanile’a Ukulele

I watched the ‘Ukulele Superpower Live Lesson’ and decided that I want my superpower to be ‘pluck strumming’, since I often like the sound of the rolled arpeggio ‘down strum’ taught in the Etude 21 lesson better than a strummed sound. So, I tried to figure out how to do an arpeggio ‘up strum’ and then do both in quick succession. Since both the Two-Chord Jam and One-Finger Etude gave me a chance to practice (and since I really like both tunes), I’m including videos for both songs this month. Happy Spring!

Hi All,

Happy to be practicing the uke again 😀
Wanted to learn Travis Picking, I did not find it easy. So much details, accents and failures to discover while playing this a 1000 times. Still not perfect :\

I was practicing both One Finger Etude and Travis Picking Etude. They were both fun to learn. Here I’m posting One Finger Etude.

@cimarronsailor – The video is viewable on YouTube, but not embeddable. I think it’s because it might be set to “made for kids”. As long as I can see it, which I can now, we’re good 🙂

@valuke – Your post has no link for an audio or video file.

It has been a long while since I have participated. I started again as self care.
I am not happy with my submission but it will have to do. I planned on coming home from work to redo it and had a family issue to tend too and was not able to get back home to redo it.
I have to stay over at my mom’s. I know the timing isn’t perfect. Some notes don’t ring out. I have a mental block where the minute I go to record I choke. But here it is. I did enjoy learning it as I am 1/2 Scottish.
