STRUM BOWING...
Dear fellow string player (violin, viola, cello & bass),
Do you wish you could actually play the music you love?
Sure, Beethoven, Bach & Brahms are wonderful, but how about the other B's?
Bruno Mars, The Bee Gees, Beyoncé?
You (like me) LOVE playing your instrument and, ultimately, you really love all kinds of music. Not just classical, but rock, jazz, fiddle and more.
However, if someone asked you to perform a jazz standard, you might shyly mention, "I don't know how to play jazz."
You're also probably intimidated by the fact that you see TikToks of incredible string players who have mastered those styles, but when you pick up your bow to try them, it doesn't sound (or feel) natural!
I know how that feels because I've been there myself...!
(In fact, I studied at Juilliard and was told to only play "serious" music - aka Classical concerti, symphonies and études).
When all is said and done, you just want to have a ton of fun on your instrument playing music you enjoy listening to, and your current diet of Bach and Paganini just isn't cutting it for you.
Oh, and the icing on the cake would be if you could see results in as little as one week!
If this sounds at all like you and your situation, then I'd like to invite you to check out...
The Strum Bowing Challenge
The Strum Bowing Challenge makes it easy for you to learn a battle-tested technique that enables you to play groove-based music in all genres. Rock, Pop, Fiddle, Jazz, Hip-Hop, EDM, Latin, you name it!
If you want to finally be able to jam along with your favorite tunes, then join the challenge today!
