Here's a lesson on how to make practice fun and productive using looping.

Basically, we take a small piece of a tune and play it in a continuous cycle. After a few cycles, you won't have to think as much about what you have to do and will begin to experience a sense of musical flow; aka FUN!

You can use looping to:
1. Learn a song or tune.
2. Improve the sound, timing and tuning once you can already play the whole thing.
3. Experiment with bowing and accenting.
4. Add more complex variation like double stops, slides, turns and melodic variation.
