We are so fortunate to have a growing Ukulele Program! We continue to offer After-School Classes with Robert Allwarden for children grades 2-4, and have evening classes for adults!
After-School Ukulele for Grades 2-4
Has your child wanted to learn an instrument, but you aren't sure you are ready to commit to the expense? Has the Ukulele craze caught their interest? Are you ready to see them spend time with something that does not have a glass screen??
Classes are set up with a 5 week session. This class is for novice and continuing students, so students can "begin where they are". Robert has a great deal of experience identifying students' abilities and developing their skills to the next level.
Students will work on chords and simple songs to play and sing. No prior knowledge is needed. All instructional materials will be provided, including ukuleles during instruction. If the students want to practice at home, they will need their own ukulele.
