Welcome to our first tutorial video of this year's 30 Day Uke Challenge! The theme for this year's challenge is Elvis Presley. We are starting with a beautiful song, Can't Help Falling In Love.

If you are a beginner, play 6 down strums per chord. If that feels too challenging, strum on Beats 1 and 4. If you're more advanced, play the fingerpicking pattern: G-C-E-A-E-C

The next tutorial will come in 3 days! Spend today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow practicing this song. When I post the next tutorial, start working on the next song.

The goal of the challenge is to get you to play your ukulele more regularly!

If you'd like to upload your cover of each song, post them on our Facebook group, Ukelandia, or tag me on instagram @plazi

Here's a link to the Worth Brown Low G Strings I mentioned
https://www.ukelandia.com/listing/153...
This comes with extra long strings, so I cut them in half and save some for the next string change.

Just for fun: here's the link to the dress I'm wearing!
