About

Welcome to Zuzu's Uke Course!

We will start at the very beginning. There is nothing you need to know beforehand. That said, we are going to go through a basic beginning course to help YOU learn the Ukulele.

We will start with learning the history of the Ukulele, and go all the way to basic songs and strumming patterns.

Please note: This is a beginner course, and it will run for 13 weeks. There will be 12 separate lessons, and we will go through one each week. It is recommended to have a Ukulele, but if you don't you can still follow along.
