Whether you’re new to the uke or already play and would like a fresh approach, this is the class for you! This family-friendly class is offered in two 8-week sessions. The first session focuses on the basics, technique, and learning to read music and TAB. The second session picks up where the first ends, and we’ll learn more chords and more complex techniques. Students must attend the first session to take the second but are not obligated to take the second. An instruction book is included, students will need their own soprano or concert ukulele and music stand.
