Starting anew
Working my way back in to this program by starting with the new jazz guitar academy. Great to see a lot of familiar faces and mentors.

Welcome back @Clint Damuth !
Etudes 2.3 and 2.4
Just wanted to send these videos for review. There is some room for improvement, esp the transitions to A9 and A13 are not easy. This recording was done with metronome at 70 bpm, you may need to use headphones to hear the guitar sound clear. I could not complete the repeat for last verse for the Etude 2.4 as my phone battery died while recording.

@Mentor Bob Kinney : thank you. I will use the speed training function next time at practice. These chords are getting better and better, I can feel it.

Lesson 2- etude 2.3
https://youtu.be/tvzkBzZvJdM Hello all, here is chord progression #2: II-V-I-VI (in C major) slowed down to 80% speed. In posture news, I tried turning the guitar support pillow on its side to make it taller & so far this feels pretty good. I can keep both feet on the floor instead of having a crossed leg. Mine is the smaller 4 inch, so I've ordered the larger 5.5 inch support to try. I want to say that I really do appreciate those of you who have shown concern and offered advice on my wrist/posture situation.

Sounding great, Nancy! Actually, I am commenting after watching the other one with the faster tempo.

Sounding great Nancy! It gets better and better with more practice.
Etudes 2.1 and 2.2
First try for Etudes 2.1 and 2.2. I recorded these last week, but didn't get chance to upload, I am getting better everyday. I missed a few chords at times and I know this video is not perfect. I am practicing with metronome at 80-90 bpm. Both of these recordings are 80% from Marc's recording.

@Mentor Kyle Bradley : thank you for those subtle observations, I try to do each chord once per bar, before practicing the whole etudes to polish the transitions between the chords. I will focus on the transitions you mentioned and keep them implemented.
