Many guitarists think floating is a difficult flatpicking technique, but it can be learned in a very simple and musical way. I recently wrote a short tune that stays calm and beautiful from start to finish. The whole piece is built around one easy floating phrase that keeps coming back.
This makes it a perfect introduction to floating. Instead of worrying about speed or complex patterns, you can relax and focus on tone, clarity, and the smooth flow of notes. Slow music shows everything, so clean playing becomes the real challenge.
In the video lesson, I explain floating in simple words and break down the phrase slowly. Then I play the full tune, so you can hear how the phrase works inside the music.
