While your left hand is busy learning chords, your right hand has its own job to get the hang of: creating a sense of rhythm with strumming! This can be a subtly tricky aspect of learning guitar, but the possibilities and fun-to-be-had are bountiful, once you get over the hump. Here's a guide to get you started.
While I do teach strumming patterns per each song lesson I make, I've also made some additional videos (shown below) where I do a deep-dive into certain strumming techniques, as demonstrated in those songs. Here's a few examples.
They’re all available with Premium membership here on my Song Notes website!
In addition to my video tutorials, I’ve made a bunch of instructional PDF guides to accompany these lessons. These are all hand-made by me, giving you the helpful info in a print-friendly format you can download or print to reference at your convenience.
Each of these PDFs, along with any jam tracks and extended video lessons I’ve made, are available via the individual lesson pages on this page.

Coming soon is Jambox – which shows all the video jam tracks I've made. It's note quite ready for the spotlight, but check it out if you like!
Most of the lessons on my website are 100% free. If you have the means, please show your support with a tip jar contribution. I put many hours into every lesson — but it only takes you a minute to make a donation. You have my thanks!
Be sure to never miss a lesson by subscribing on YouTube. I put out 2-3 new videos every week. These include full song lessons, as well as covers, practice tips, behind-the-scenes updates. Thanks!
