What also maybe could help is first singing along in your head while strumming, and mouthing the words along, so you don't get thrown of guard by your own voice, but you can also kinda practice that way. And then if you can sing it along in your head you can actually start to sing along.

When I started Ukulele about a Year ago, humming the sung melody (instead of singing) helped me a lot keeping the focus on the Uke - then singing just the chorus - then sing and play together.

I struggled with this when I first started (about a year ago) and learned by taking it slow, and I would start with humming while I played and sang the words later on!
I love you so much Elise!!!! Can you do a Red tutorial on uke by Taylor Swift?!?

I loved that with my ukulele I could practice singing. For a long time I practiced only the down strums and it really gave to time to learn chords, learn how to get comfortable with playing an instrument, practice timing and practice my singing as well. Because the down strums where easy I could choose songs that where a bit harder and I could also experiment with choosing my own tempo and singing variations. To everyone that wants to play an instrument but is scared to. Buy a ukulele and just do the downstrums until you're comfortable doing more. It still sounds great and you can really practice how comfortable you are with an instrument.
I think it's a wall everyone hits, either the strumming, singing or both need to become second nature for it to work and the only route towards that is indeed practice, practice, practice. My right hand used to completely forget it belonged to me as soon as I opened my mouth to sing, probably in an effort to disown me because it was embarrassed at how bad I am. Good video
*You know da wae*
this is very helpful. omg Josh dun was there.😂😂😂💀
A great tip that helped me is to learn the strumming pattern, then take a voice memo or video of yourself just playing for a while. Then play the video and play along with yourself and sing with it. It worked pretty well for me.
When I watched this about 3 weeks ago, I couldn’t strums and sings together. I followed your technique and kept practising with different songs for 3 weeks and now I can do it😃. It takes a while to practise, but eventually you will get it.
