INTRO TO UKE, PART 1

In this 4-session class, you’ll learn the core fundamentals needed to be get jump-started on the ukulele. After being shown how to properly hold the uke, a pick, and position your arms and hands, some basic chords, you’ll strum through some familiar, beginner-friendly songs.

All you’ll need to bring is a soprano, concert, or tenor ukulele (no baritone ukes, please, as they’re tuned quite differently). All instructional materials will be provided.

Note: If you don’t have a uke and need help finding one at a reasonable price, you can contact the instructor for suggestions (but do so at least 2 weeks before the first class).
