After you finish a Beginner Workshop what then?
Of course you can join a Ukestra but what if you just don’t feel ready to do that?
Or has it been months since you picked up the ukulele and you need a bit of a refresher?

Expression of Interest for Ukulele Entree
Details
Where? Carrington Bowling Club, 1c Cowper St North, Carrington (first on left over the bridge)
When? 10:00-11:45pm (with a 10 minute drink break – get to know your uke buddies!)
Dates: Sundays from 29 October to 26 November 2023
Teachers: Mark (and maybe John or Jane)
Cost: Five weeks for $125. If you wish to pay for only a few, each session costs $30.
If you decide to attend other ukestras during the week, (which we encourage you to do), then you only pay $10 for these additional sessions, but only if you have paid the upfront $125.
In 5 weeks you learn:
- Up to 15 chords and how to move your fingers efficiently around the fret board
- Strumming techniques (including muting and the four finger strum)
- Some finger picking, a few bar chords and riff playing
- Basic musical tab and musical notation (notes)
- The notes on the ukulele in the home position (i.e. the first four frets)
(And then? Our usual Sunday sessions will resume at the Carro Bowlo – from 10-12midday). et voila! You are in at the ground floor!.
UKULELES: We can lend you a uke in the first few weeks until you find one you like.
Once we have sufficient interest, you can confirm your place by making a direct deposit into our Newcastle Perm account.
