Barre chords on ukulele don't have to be terrible. Here are two simple fixes to make you hate them slightly less. Simply fixing out finger position and how we hold down the string solve most issues with barre Chords. Stick around and we'll talk a little about how to practice moveable shapes up and down the neck as well.

Brilliant about using the different fingers for chord shapes in order to free up the index finger for barre chords! ❤

Yes! My left thumb has been rehabbing from overuse after the holidays. The culprit? My ukuleles! Something about those stiff little strings, especially in the first two frets. Of course, I am also guilty of pressing too hard. Thank you, Christopher, for this very timely discussion about the physical requirements for barre chords 😊

We're all guilty of that :) The uke is unique in that it's so easy to press down the strings that we can get away with playing just about anyway we like until it starts hurting. Hope your thumb is feeling better soon!

Great explanation. Thank you. But what about chords like Cm7 where I have to bend my middle finger to grab strings A and E? Any idea for this problem?

I rarely use collapsed barres like that (I think the voicing you're talking about is 5766, right? I use all individual fingers to play that vs the barre) but for when you do the same principles really apply, position on the fret as close as possible makes it easier which you can practice without the other fingers down. Practice that two fret collapsed barre independently and then pepper in the other fingers once it's already feeling solid.

@@Banjoleletinman Thank you very much for your answer. And yes, you are right. I was talking about 5766.
