About
Hello, welcome to this beginner's ukulele session! :)
Learning to play an instrument is a great hobby to uptake, as studies show that not only does playing music relax, elevate moods, and improve mental health but furthermore, it enhances cognitive function (amongst many other benefits)! Who wouldn't want that?
As such, I would love to teach you the basics of playing the ukulele, as I personally found it the easiest and most enjoyable instrument to uptake through self-teaching, and I hope this session will kickstart your ukulele journey so you can begin playing what you really love.
