Hi from Mandy in New Zealand

Community Hub Introduce yourself ...

Hi Mandy, nice to meet you. Good luck with the guitar learning journey. Guitar is a bit more enduro than a sprint so you will probably be well suited.
Best wishes,
Alan

Hi Alan. Haha! I agree. Itā€™s definitely endurance. I learnt that the hard way earlier on! Now Iā€™m more relaxed about it all. Enjoy your playing as well : )

HaHa Yes! Still physically challenging but in a different way. Teaching my fingers to move fast is quite the task but Iā€™m getting there : )

Welcome to the mad house Mandy. Good to see that Justin was your bounce back tutor and good to see that you are now staying the course. Youā€™ll have no regrets and have the support of this fine community along the way, to keep you on the straight and narrow.

Thank you! It was so funny having to keep my JustinGuitar habit secret from two of my guitar tutors. They really couldnā€™t cope with the idea that I was following him. The third tutor appreciated his skills as much as I did so that was great and we enjoyed chatting about his methodology as much as we enjoyed the guitar playing. Happy playing!

Hi Mandy, welcome. Good playing guitar is keeping you busy and channelling part of the energy that you were putting before in you endurance sport racing. Hopefully you have found some physical activity that works for your current physical condition. You can give it a try to as many musical genres as you can as part of the learning, but at the end there would be some only that like you more and motivates you more for learning. Have fun

Welcome Mandy! There isnā€™t a better avenue to learning the ropes of being a musician than the people here inspired by Justinā€™s tutelage. Rock on :metal:
