Course Description
Learn to play ukulele the musical way! This class uses the Ukulele in the Classroom method to teach ukulele playing from the ground up. Perfect for complete beginners or anyone who wants to go beyond just strumming chords.

Students will also get an introduction to song sheets used in our community strum along sessions for optional practice at home.
