Lessons in detail

How your ukulele lessons work.

The first lessons

Four strings, just a few chord shapes: with C, G, Am and F you'll be accompanying your first songs in no time. Along the way, you learn simple strumming patterns and how to switch between chords.

Over time

More chords, picking patterns and melody playing, singing and playing at the same time, plus reggae and island strums. From pop and folk to singer-songwriter.

For kids and adults

The ukulele is light, easy to handle and gentle on your fingers. Ideal for children from age 6 and for adults who want quick results. It's also a great first step before the guitar.

Practising at home

A soprano or concert ukulele is all you need to start. Just ten minutes a day brings progress you can hear.
