Nope didn't think so either. We all know parents don't get this.
I can show you how to be the virtuoso your folks could only dream about, but I first need your help:
* Pm me and I will show you where to start. I am online every day and I will help you out directly!
* Join my mentoring program. I will customize your learning experience in a way you haven't experienced before. We will have regular contact so that you can remain inspired every day and eventually reach a new level.
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?
* Oh and did you know that to become a killer guitarist you just need to focus on one thing? Everything
else is secondary. Pm me and I will explain.

You have given yourself a very honest answer mate Now, two things: 1) If you could show me such a critical moment in a video, I could tell you more, of course, based on what I see and hear and... 2) Making a good habit out of noticing what's happening and taking action WHEN it is happening, will work wonders of course That means, if you notice a problem, don't continue like it's not there, but stop, isolate the part that causes trouble, slow it down and practice it taking into account the relaxation, precision, clean playing and articulation of the phrase at the low speed. Once you are comfortable, raise the speed gradually to get to your desired level Let me know what you think, ok? Cosmin Hi! - I've been trying to get it in a video, but from what I've noticed in the past few days (just started vacation, body isnt tired from work when I play) it seems to be more of a gradual buildup of tension from ignoring tiny amounts of tension! - So, I'll try to focus on that when it happens, and get it worked out like you mentioned. Oh, and I think I'll start working on this https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/solo-guit...ssical-etude-1/ Way out of my comfort zone and abilities at the moment, but aim for the skies right? -- Zaek |

Hey mate
You have started on a good path - now, in order for you to have less and less to deal with tension, as you noticed, your body is relaxed, because of no stress beforehand - work or other similar things. You should learn how to enter such a state of mind in which you leave everything else aside and the body will also follow. It's amazing to discover what we can do if we put our minds to it Being aware is the most important thing: When and why am I starting to tense up? As soon as you feel that coming, stop relax and start again - there will come a point when you will be able to relax while playing, but until then, you should become comfortable with the tension provoking movements at slow speeds, where they can't provoke anything. Focus on small and relaxed movements and keep this spirit when you are raising the speed About the lesson, if you play it correct, in good timing, clean and articulated at 75% speed, I think it's excellent. The purpose here is to be able to play correct and then, speed will come in time. What do you think?
