I just checked out this video on conga playing technique, and it's packed with great tips! Its geared towards beginners, focusing on hand positioning and basic strokes. One key takeaway for me was the importance of relaxing your hands while playing, which helps produce a cleaner sound. This simple adjustment can make a big difference in your playing. If you're new to congas, definitely give this a watch. I'm curious, what techniques do you all find helpful when starting out on congas?
