Ukulele Lessons

Ukulele Lessons

Overview

Our ukulele instructors teach many styles, from pop to indie rock, from blues to jazz, and many others. Beginners work on chords, simple songs and melodies, sight reading and theory. Each lesson will challenge you with a new technique or music theory, and ends with something fun – such as your favorite riff or song. We employ a variety of ukulele method books based on student needs and preferences, and encourage students to bring their favorite tunes to learn.

Our ukulele instructors are warm and friendly, and get to know each student and parent on a personal level. We work with each individual or parent to craft a lesson plan that fits the student’s unique needs and favorite types of music. Whether your kid is taking their first lesson, or already playing in local bands, our teachers will share their love for the instrument and help you set goals to achieve your musical aspirations.

Are there performance opportunities?

Absolutely! Every May, our students have the opportunity to perform in front of their family and friends. We also have the Home Concert Series, which is a big success with everyone, and a great preparation for the big recital.

Unlike most of other music schools, we do not charge students a fee to perform, and admission is free. We do raise donations (contributions are optional) for nonprofit institutions that offer music programs to underprivileged children. We believe that philanthropy and music go hand in hand.
