Hello david 

 

My life is very hectic at the minute. In the last 4 months I've opened a bakery and a restaurant  so having 2 businesses I'm sorry to say leaves me no time to practice ( zero in 4 months).if I do just 10 mins of the daily exercises is that enough. I know its probably not lol but something has to be better than nothing. I just don't want to start over when I have time to practice properly again . Thank you for all your hard work again.

 

Ps is sharon still practicing. I found her lessons very helpful

Hello arsenalcp114. A busy

Hello arsenalcp114. A busy life can be challenging to learn an instrument. Ten minutes is not much, but it's better than nothing. I would say to focus on Tongue Block Study 1, getting your 10-minute sit-down study in front of the sheet music for a specific part of the song and then when you get moments in the day (car, waiting for someone, etc.), practice those little pieces over and over.

Life has become busy for Sharon and she is not currently studying. When life slows down, she hopes to dig back into her studies.
