Seeking ideas for any new video or PDF tutorials that may be of interest to the people reading our posts. Is there anything you guys want to learn? It can be on any of the subjects listed on our website’s homepage (www.aym4training.com), and I’m certainly open to any other ideas you may have. Please keep in mind the time limit on YouTube is 15 minutes, so please try to choose something that can be explained in a short video – or two.

Any ideas, people???
