I'm currently having some issues with getting the hang of the rhythm of strumming. I strum downwards just fine but have trouble getting any sort of reasonable sound coming from the instrument when I try to strum back up. I started using a felty bolo pick because it seems like that is the only thing that allows me to strum upwards without sounding silly. I can barely strum upwards at all without the pick and even with the pick I get out of rhythm because it doesn't feel naturally to me. Any tips on ukulele holding position as well as ways to strum with more easy down and up (and especially if there are better ways without the pick) would be greatly appreciated. I am an absolute novice and started two weeks ago.
