This is a Ukulele tutorial aimed at increasing your speed and agility on the uke.

If you're anything like me, the absolute dream is to be able to play the ukulele like Jake Shimabukuro, Corey Fujimoto, Andrew Molina, James Hill or any number of players who the play the uke at a lightning pace. I used to watch them and just think, WTF!?! How are they even doing that? and how can i do that? I figured out a way we can get to the same point as them, but it requires a lot of patience, time and playing along to a metronome. While its great to be flying up and down the fretboard, its equally if not more important to be doing it in time. By that, i mean playing at a consistent steady pace throughout the whole song. All of the players I mentioned do this at an expert level.

➤ So whats the thinking behind it?

The principal is very simple, we will slow everything down to a snail's pace, super slow. Then increase the speed in very subtle increments, 3bpm ever 4 bars to be exact. This method allows our fingers to learn with muscle memory instead our brain telling them what to do. The changes in speed are so small that they are barely noticeable. However, over the course of 5 minutes. The changes are quite dramatic but manageable.

➤ What do i do?

Take the piece of music you want to be able to play fast. This could be anything, a fingerpicking pattern, strumming chords, riffs or solos. Anything at all that you want to increase your speed on. Play along to the end of this video. The speed starts at 70bpm and gets up to 160bpm. When your fingers start to hurt or can't keep up. Stop and make a note of the tempo you got too. Use this as your high score. Aim to beat that score next time. Take your time and aim to get to 160bpm.

Repeat this process as often as possible and you WILL get faster on the ukulele.
