In this lesson, we focus on the Windshield Wiper strumming motion — a smooth, continuous up-and-down movement of the strumming arm. The goal is to keep the motion relaxed and even, maintaining a steady tempo rather than thinking in fixed patterns.

Explanation

We’re playing in 4/4 time using 8th notes, counted as:

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

• Numbers = downstrokes
• “+” = upstrokes
