Overview

Our ukulele instructors teach folk, country, reggae and rock-n-roll styles. 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 you or your child’s 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 songs to learn during their lessons.

What’s the #1 reason to study ukulele at the Academy?

Our ukulele instructors are warm, friendly, and get to know each student and parent on a personal level. We work with you to craft a lesson plan that fits your individual needs and the student's favorite type of music. Whether you're playing in local bands, a seven-year-old taking their first lesson, or a fifty-year-old returning to the ukulele after many years, we’ll set goals to achieve your musical aspirations.
