Ukulele Online Workshops
ONLINE PROGRAM
Can't make it in person to a workshop? No problem!
These online programs are for you!
*4 Workshops in the MEGA bundle or Purchase single ones!*
1 . Ukulele BEGINNERS Workshop
Traditionally run in-person, this course covers everything you need to know to start playing the ukulele – from strumming to basic chords, chord progressions and 16 songs.
You’ll be playing in no-time! Originally designed for adults, YES children 7 and up can use this program too (but may need extra support to start.)
Normally this is a 5-hr workshop run in one day session in Perth, WA but as that’s not happening until 2025 (hello maternity leave!) I thougth I’d create a program online for you to start your journey.
What’s Included?
- Over 2-hours of EASY to follow, broken-down video segments that tell you exactly what you need to know including how to hold the ukulele, where to put your fingers, how to strum + more.
- 16 Songs – easy to play, easy to learn, take YOUR time!
- An innovative, new way of playing that will make remembering songs and chords easy.
- Video-answers to those burning questions like: What ukulele should I buy? What if I’m left-handed? Why do my strings sound dull? Why does my wrist hurt when I play? And others!
- A PDF Booklet with all the details and songs for you to print yourself (there are some available in person, $17 incl. postage or $10 pick-up)
- A professional teaching you in an engaging manner, encouraging you along the way
- One year access to the videos (ends Dec. 31st 2024), lifetime access to the booklet.
Why This Course?
Isn’t YouTube free? Free does not mean quality…there are LOTS of great teachers out there and LOTS of terrible content too.
When you learn something incorrectly you have to unlearn and relearn it…that takes a LOT of time, patience and tears. It’s better to learn it correctly the first time!
Also, this program is a step-by-step process that has been honed over the last 5 years, tested on over 500 students. You can see the reviews at the bottom! The online videos were the next step, as sometime things are forgotten after a full day... These videos are designed to help you completely and fully learn a song, with helpful reminders along the way!
"This is an amazing online program! It's delivered with all the energy and fun of your face to face workshops. Love, love, love it! I hope there are many more online programs to come! Definitely recommend buying this online program!!!!!" D. Montgomery, Perth

FAQs
What You’ll Need:
- A ukulele
- A tuner (so your strings are in tune)
- A strap (preferred to make it easier to hold your ukulele)
- A printer to print off the booklet and have it in front of you when learning
Do I Need to Already Play the Ukulele?
No! You don't need ANY pre-knowledge at all for the beginners. If you have some, that's ok too!
I strongly suggest everyone starts at the beginners unless you can comfortably and quickly get between all your chords. Even then...there's tidbits in the Beginners you may not have known.
Can I Skip and JUST do the Christmas Carols?
Yeeeess.... It might just take you a little longer to get some of the basics down.
I do (BRIEFLY) walk you through the chords, strumming and how to hold your ukulele so you can play even if you’re a total beginner but it’s HIGHLY recommended that you do the beginners course (and even intermediate) if you can first.
If you’re not in Perth, Australia, these courses will be online. If you are in Perth, Australia, come along to one of these workshops in 2025!
Do I Need to Be Able to Sing:
You WILL need to sing along at home as you go (where no one has to hear you) – but you don’t have to have a perfect voice (mine certainly isn’t!).
You do need to sing so you can keep the timing and the beat as you go. It takes a bit of practice so don’t expect to get it straight away. It’s why I sing for you at the end of the videos so you can play and practice with me.
What If I Make Mistakes?
I do! All the time! Never fear…practice makes progress!
