The Pocket Path

Search “how to play in the pocket” and you get a pile of well-meaning, esoteric descriptions of groove that don't tell you anything.

Here's the real answer. The number one reason you can't groove, the number one reason you can't play in the pocket, is that you have a bad relationship with time. Not your hands. Not your ear.

A free 5-day program to feel musical time in your body, before you ever touch the bass.

No spam. Just the worksheet.

Five Days. One Idea a Day. One Physical Activity a Day.

No bass required until Day 5.

Day 1: Walk Your Time — tempo is a pace, and you already know a hundred of them.

Day 2: March the Subdivision — find the upbeat in your own body before you find it on the neck.

Day 3: Feel the Gap — your body already tracks time, your instrument has nothing to do with it yet.

Day 4: Find the Time Already Around You — the pulse was never missing, you just weren't listening.

Day 5: Let Melody Sit on Top — time lives in your body first, everything else sits on top of it.

It ain't rocket science. It's pocket science.
