Playing trombone again after a 20 year absence

Hi friends, I'm new here! I'm returning to playing trombone
after 20 years of absence! I haven't played since my college
marching band years. I have to start from the ground up pretty
much. Does anyone have tips to make fast progress in recovery? I
would love to get into the instrument again.

I would look for new or used copies of the Rubank system on
Amazon or eBay. They are a series of books aimed at the rank
beginner. They should go for cheap.
Get yourself a good instructor and follow his guidelines
fervently! He may have other systems he likes a lot - like
Arbans and a whole host of others when he feels you are ready.
Whenever you put your horn up to your face, try to play the
nicest-sounding notes you possibly can. Make that a lifetime
habit right from the get-go!
Good luck!
