Dialogue: 0,0:00:59.89,0:01:02.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I would recommend getting something \Nlike a clip on tuner

Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.23,0:01:54.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So the tuning is C, oh sorry, G, C, E, A
Dialogue: 0,0:01:54.58,0:01:59.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it seems to be commonly called \Nwhen I looked it up “My dog has flees “

Dialogue: 0,0:02:00.74,0:02:04.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But you can hear that the fourth string \Nwhich is the one closest to the ceiling\N
Dialogue: 0,0:02:04.30,0:02:07.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is actually the highest note. \N
Dialogue: 0,0:02:07.88,0:02:11.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it’s kinda high - low - getting higher
Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.48,0:02:15.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It’s going from the top down okay you \Nknow I mean physically down
Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.53,0:02:18.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The string closest to the floor is the \None I call the first string
Dialogue: 0,0:02:18.64,0:02:24.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So first string, second string, third \Nstring and fourth string
Dialogue: 0,0:02:24.72,0:02:32.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So from the ground it would be A, E, C \Nand G
Dialogue: 0,0:02:32.30,0:02:39.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and from the ceiling down G, C, E, A. Okay?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.96,0:02:42.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now like I said I really recommend \Nthat you get a tuner
Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.27,0:02:43.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you don’t have a tuner
Dialogue: 0,0:02:43.11,0:02:45.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I'm gonna play the notes for you now so \Nyou can tune up
Dialogue: 0,0:02:45.18,0:02:53.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, this would be the top \Nstring or string four. It’s the note G.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:53.42,0:03:02.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Okay, and now to the third string just \Nthe note C. It’s the lowest note on the Uke
Dialogue: 0,0:03:02.81,0:03:09.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And to the second string which \Nis the note E
Dialogue: 0,0:03:09.90,0:03:16.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And now to the first string, the \None closest to the ground, the note A
Dialogue: 0,0:03:16.62,0:03:20.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Okay, so when you pick it up and strum it.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:20.77,0:03:26.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,“My dog has flees” that’s what you \Nwant to be hearing. Okay.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:26.27,0:03:30.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So that’s first really important thing \Ngetting your Uke in tune
Dialogue: 0,0:03:30.14,0:03:32.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Second thing - holding the Uke. Now
Dialogue: 0,0:03:32.91,0:03:37.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It makes sense to me that you should \Nbe stable not supported by this hand
Dialogue: 0,0:03:37.81,0:03:40.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so that means I have to support \Nit with this hand
Dialogue: 0,0:03:40.31,0:03:42.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But just supporting it with this hand
Dialogue: 0,0:03:42.61,0:03:45.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and leaving this one free means\NI've got to hold it so tight
Dialogue: 0,0:03:45.33,0:03:47.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I can't strum very freely and that’s \Nno good
Dialogue: 0,0:03:47.33,0:03:50.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and if I just support it with this hand \Nthen I can’t change chords
Dialogue: 0,0:03:50.44,0:03:53.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So really it’s a bit of balancing act where
Dialogue: 0,0:03:53.18,0:03:56.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Some of the weight of the neck is held \Nby your hand that is fretting the chords
Dialogue: 0,0:03:56.94,0:03:58.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which is quite different to guitar
Dialogue: 0,0:03:58.31,0:04:00.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,On guitar you would never be \Nholding the neck
Dialogue: 0,0:04:00.54,0:04:02.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The neck should just be completely stationary
Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.55,0:04:05.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it does make changing \Nchords a little trickier
Dialogue: 0,0:04:05.72,0:04:08.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,when you have to support \Nthe neck a little bit, Okay?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:08.17,0:04:11.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and otherwise it’s just your \Nforearm kind of holding the Uke down
Dialogue: 0,0:04:11.75,0:04:15.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I have seen a few people talk about \Nbeing able to hold the Uke like that
Dialogue: 0,0:04:15.08,0:04:19.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and play quite freely but I haven't been \Nable to get it together that quickly
Dialogue: 0,0:04:19.59,0:04:21.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so it might be difficult for you too
Dialogue: 0,0:04:21.43,0:04:26.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,one thing I do find - especially for the very \Nfirst time - I just rested the Uke in my lap
Dialogue: 0,0:04:26.46,0:04:30.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,like it was a guitar and now my strumming \Nhand feels quite free
Dialogue: 0,0:04:30.06,0:04:32.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I’m not going to hold the \Nneck up so much
Dialogue: 0,0:04:32.16,0:04:34.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So you might want to try that as well
Dialogue: 0,0:04:34.38,0:04:37.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Doesn’t really matter whichever \Nway you really want to do it.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:37.50,0:04:39.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you going to be holding it up \Nquite high it's not like a guitar
Dialogue: 0,0:04:39.84,0:04:43.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where you would be playing it right down \Non your lap that feels pretty weird
Dialogue: 0,0:04:43.62,0:04:45.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So going to have it a little bit further up
Dialogue: 0,0:04:45.13,0:04:48.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it really is what’s comfortable for you
Dialogue: 0,0:04:48.17,0:04:52.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If I was going to play it standing up\NI would almost certainly use a strap
Dialogue: 0,0:04:52.24,0:04:54.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It’s so light and small you could \Nuse a bit of string
Dialogue: 0,0:04:54.90,0:04:57.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It wouldn’t be big deal
Dialogue: 0,0:04:57.18,0:05:01.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So generally, you’re just using you’re \Nforearm to hold the Uke against your body
Dialogue: 0,0:05:01.49,0:05:03.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and a little bit of support from the left hand.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:03.46,0:05:07.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The first thing you want to get sorted out, \Nis just how you going to hold it
Dialogue: 0,0:05:07.53,0:05:12.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now strumming - normally with Uke \Nyou strum with your first finger
Dialogue: 0,0:05:12.30,0:05:14.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There are other techniques, you \Ncould do fingerstyle and all sorts of stuff
Dialogue: 0,0:05:14.57,0:05:17.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,To start off with you want to be \Njust using your first finger
Dialogue: 0,0:05:17.52,0:05:21.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and interestingly you strum kind of around\Nwhere the neck meets the body of the Uke
Dialogue: 0,0:05:21.66,0:05:23.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It’s not like a guitar where your back here
Dialogue: 0,0:05:23.43,0:05:27.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it’s more here
Dialogue: 0,0:05:27.71,0:05:32.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now I recommend just starting off, \Njust doing four down strums
Dialogue: 0,0:05:32.00,0:05:33.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with your first finger
Dialogue: 0,0:05:33.51,0:05:36.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and then get used to doing some up \Nstrokes and
Dialogue: 0,0:05:36.35,0:05:38.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,make sure your fingers not getting caught \Nin the strings
Dialogue: 0,0:05:38.99,0:05:46.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and going down, up, down, \Nup, down, up, down, up
Dialogue: 0,0:05:46.12,0:05:47.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,A really common kind of pattern\Ncould be like
Dialogue: 0,0:05:47.96,0:05:56.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,one, two, and three and four, down - down\Nup - down up - down, that kind of a pattern
Dialogue: 0,0:05:56.25,0:05:58.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Works really great on the Uke
Dialogue: 0,0:05:58.99,0:06:01.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But there’s lot s of different kind of\Nstrumming patterns
Dialogue: 0,0:06:01.22,0:06:03.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you can use - like on the guitar
Dialogue: 0,0:06:03.56,0:06:06.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that's one of the things you\Nwant to be studying as you progress
Dialogue: 0,0:06:06.04,0:06:07.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is learning different strumming patterns
Dialogue: 0,0:06:07.45,0:06:09.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and different ways of playing them
Dialogue: 0,0:06:09.20,0:06:11.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,To start of with, don’t feel stress
Dialogue: 0,0:06:11.26,0:06:14.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,just first finger strumming around \Nthe joint of the neck
Dialogue: 0,0:06:14.95,0:06:17.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the body of the Uke strumming \Nit up and down
Dialogue: 0,0:06:17.34,0:06:19.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That’s all you need to really be \Nworrying about
