After buying my banjo I bought several self-learning books and DVD's. I found one that I liked more than the others, however, I just had a hard time following it. Everything of course was new to me but still I could not make progress and I thought I had no rhythm. I even started a thread "Gotta Have Rhythm" and a few members posted that either you have it or you don't, or something like that.
So, anyhow, I had Jody as a Skype teacher for a series of lessons and guess what, I had rhythm all the time but just needed a good banjo teacher to help me dig it out.
I've gone back to that self-learning book (Janet Davis) and now it is so easy to follow and my rhythm is NO problem. I'm now having more fun that ever.
I just needed a good teacher to help get me on the right track.
