Here is a basic layout of how to practice the modes. In this case these are the modes to the G major scale. The reason for this key is to keep everything related to a familiar key so you can see the relationship to the other exercises i’ve given.

Practice each mode one at a time and most importantly always relate the scale to the chord. This will open up your harmonic knowledge and give you a better understanding of how to solo against different chords.

This is an introduction lesson in how to practice modes. There will be more to follow soon.
