Hello,
I'm trying to learn to play since about 4 weeks now and I'm happy with my uke and how much I was able to pick up in such a short time (being an absolute music-newbie before... I never before had my hands on any instrument.....)
But now as I'm able to play a few songs without thinking about it , I recognized a kind of crazy movement I make when I'm strumming - I'm always bending and extending my index finger while strumming (that's the finger I use)...
Is that a normal movement (I do this without thinking about it and my strumming sounds normal to me) ?
Does this have something to do with my -:uhoh:- very short nails as I must admit to be a nailbiter ?
Do I have to change my strumming habit (I know I definitely SHOULD stop biting my nails but I just can't) for any reason that may occur later on, or can I just go on strumming as my finger wants to ?
Thanks for your advice....
