Oud Fingerboard Workouts · Navid Goldrick
Build your technique.
Keep the music at its heart.
10 core oud études, shorter technique studies, and practice videos to help you work through the movements inside the music.
Presale: October 25–31, 2026.
Ends October 31 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific time.
A familiar moment
You know the notes.
The movement still needs work.
Your fingers hesitate at the same point. A string crossing interrupts the phrase. Your risha and left hand do not quite arrive together.
Oud Fingerboard Workouts gives you complete music to work toward, with shorter studies and video guidance that focus on techniques used in the pieces.
Choose a manageable passage, explore the movement, then return to the étude and hear how it fits into the music. You can work on one passage at a time.

A note from Navid
Focused practice.
Musical expression.
I’m Navid, the teacher behind Oud for Guitarists. I created these études to bring musical expression and focused technical practice together.
In the videos, I’ll shed light on how to practise and execute the music, so you can give the movements inside each étude the attention they need.
