I know what it takes to go from knowing only a couple of chords to feeling at ease playing, singing, and having fun in a group. If I can do it, so can you!
Why Learn with Jen?
Have you wanted to join a ukulele club but worry you aren't "good enough"? Ukulele clubs are a wonderful way to connect and make music, but if you're just starting out, it can feel intimidating to join a group where everyone seems to know what they're doing. That's where I come in! My lessons help you build the skills and confidence you need to play comfortably with others.Â
Or maybe you are getting acquainted with your ukulele and have ideas about how you'd like to play, but you're unsure how to get there. I can show you the building blocks you need to reach the next level.
I give students the tools and structure they need to achieve their ukulele aspirations and broaden their musical knowledge in a fun, respectful, and upbeat environment. You'll receive personalized guidance that only in-person instruction can offer. Come learn in a relaxed, supportive setting!
What You'll Learn
In my lessons, you'll learn to:
Hold your ukulele comfortably
Play essential chords and switch between them
Strum with rhythm and keep a steady beat
Use go-to strumming patterns
Play fun songs with 4 (or more!) chords
Join any jam with confidence
Lesson Options
Join a 6-week session of weekly 1-hour lessons, or opt for a week-long intensive of daily 1.5-hour lessons. (Minimum group size: 5 people) Songs and materials are tailored to each group, with the goal of getting everyone singing and strumming some of their favorite songs together.
I offer 30-minute lessons for those who prefer individual instruction.
