UPCOMING WORKSHOPS
Fall Ukulele Power-Up Workshops: Superb Strumming 1 & 2
​Oct. 21 and Nov. 4
If you're a beginning uke player with a little experience, looking to improve your sound quality and play better rhythm, working on strumming technique is a great way to power-up your playing! We’ll keep the chords simple and concentrate on strumming techniques in these one-hour workshops. In part 1, we’ll work on the mechanics of basic strumming, then play a few songs to use what we’ve covered. In part 2, we’ll alter our basic strum to include a couple of the most popular rhythms and experiment with using those rhythms effectively to play a variety of songs.
Workshops take place online via Zoom, 7-8pm Eastern, with a short Q&A to follow. Zoom links will be emailed upon receipt of payment. Payment accepted via PayPal or Venmo to @Amy-Kucharik.
Amy Kucharik has played ukulele as her primary instrument for more than a decade. In addition to teaching private lessons and weekly classes, Amy teaches and performs at ukulele workshops throughout New England. She headlined Rochester's Flower City Ukulele Festival in 2019 and most recently performed and taught workshops at the Gaithersburg Ukefest.
PRIVATE UKULELE LESSONS
Learning an instrument is a great activity for people of all ages. Playing a cheerful  ukulele might help combat depression and could have several other health benefits. I teach weekly lessons Tues-Thurs afternoons and also less frequently on weekends. I am currently all booked up for weekly lessons but can occasionally fit in someone new. Email me to set up a time for us to meet online!
