  Ukulele Lessons   

Ukulele!
What a fun little instrument! Beyond its charming size, the ukulele is extremely practical. It's the perfect bridge instrument for young children (usually around the ages of 5-6) to pave their way to guitar lessons. Its four strings and petite size make it easier to hold, handle, and play as they learn the basics before moving on to the guitar. Or, they can continue enjoying the ukulele for as long as they want!

But the ukulele isn't just for kids! Its compact size makes it a fantastic travel companion and a durable, wonderful tool to accompany your singing.


 

Ukulele lesson plans are tailored for each student's needs

Just like with the guitar, my primary focus when teaching the ukulele is to find the right balance between what the student needs to advance and what they want to achieve. I aim to connect with each student and discover the best ways they perceive and retain knowledge. For younger students, I also involve the parents in these decisions. When teaching young children, I place extra emphasis on preparing them for the transition from ukulele to guitar.

I pay special attention to technique and fundamentals in all of my students' lessons. Having a strong foundation is essential for growth as a musician.

While each student's lessons are tailored to their individual needs, there are some essential elements I include and others that are optional. Here is what you can expect in my lessons:

* Warmup Exercises
* Strumming & Rhythm
* Chord Switching Techniques & Chord Mobility
* Sight Reading
* Extracting Rhythms by Ear
* Singing while Playing
* Basic and Advanced Music Theory (highly recommended for becoming an independent player)
* Working with a Band and Other Musicians
* Preparation for Auditions and Music Exams
* Many secrets and techniques I've learned during my 26 years as a guitar player, musician, and producer

I would be more than happy to teach you or your children, demonstrating and sharing the magic of music, the outlet it provides, and the sheer pleasure it brings.
