First off, I'm not asking.. I want to get that out of the way, so no one gets upset. :p

I see alot of the lessons saying they get alot of emails about it, but I was trying to learn the D chords, and I thought it was really hard learning to switch between D and Dm, so I just tried something so simple as, holdig D, strumming down twice,(I don't like going up and down, so much just yet) and switching to Dm and strumming 4 times, I just tried to make it go together, I guess it doesn't have to be 2 and 4, but this got me switching between the two chords literally within 5 minutes, it might not sound like some giant feat but if alot of people have trouble with it, something like this might help.

If this didn't make sense, or doesn't help...You may boo me. :(

Yea.... I got a little lost on the discription ... but congrats on finding a way on working it out for you. I found a few tricks that seemed to help me.... well im sure most folks already knew them but I dont have anyone to sit down with to show me ......so most of my discoverys (good and bad) are self taught... :)

I would definately go with what works best for you, because everyone learns differently. And good luck...

You might want to try some simple chords at first if you are having trouble moving between the harder ones.

I know once you get alot of the "Basic" chords down there is tons of songs you can play. Hell im not that good but I got a decent grasp on the "Basics" and have already played 2 cookouts. (its amazing how good I sound to a bunch of drunks.... Lmaoo)
