Freshen up your strum and free up your ukulele playing style at this light-hearted, in-person Ukulele Strum Rehab workshop — then put those skills to use at the sing-along/play-along Ukulele Shenanigan that follows! Wherever you are in your ukulele journey, this workshop can help free your strum from hum-drum habits.
WORKSHOP: Learn techniques to help make your strum more natural, consistent, and spontaneous. We'll explore easy ways to synchronize, and add rhythm to make it sound more like the version of the song that plays on your inner jukebox.
To get the most out of the class and the Shenanigan, it helps to be able to strum with relative ease and to be able to move among basic chords (A, Am, C, D, D7, Dm, E7, Em, F, G, G7). Wherever you are in your ukulele journey, this workshop can help free your strum from hum-drum habits.
The Shenanigan is a fun, live sing-along for all levels of play. One of the best ways to improve your skills is to play with others. Whether you're just barely hanging on for the ride or you're a seasoned player, this jam offers an array of song choices from easy to challenging — YOU get to choose from a list of over 200 songs! We project the chords and lyrics on the screen, and away we go! Led by Ukulele Clare and Rebecca "The Band" Padula, we'll offer playing tips and techniques as we go.
Please try to arrive a little early if you can to give you time to find a seat and tune up, otherwise, slip in quietly.
