Ukulele Beginners (121)
Canford Cliffs Village Hall - 17 Ravine Road Canford Cliffs, Poole, BH13 7HT
Please see day and time information on the Class Finder page
This class is for complete beginners and lasts for one year, although several members join again for a second year. The ukulele is fun to play and also exercises ‘the little grey cells’.
You will need a ukulele, a music stand, a folder for the songs and the facility to download and print songs each week. Some people prefer to use an iPad.
The ability to read music is not necessary, but it helps if you can count.
The course covers holding and tuning the ukulele, strumming patterns and an introduction to picking. We start with only two chords and gradually add more throughout the year, whilst accompanying a variety of songs.
Please phone Ann Smith, Leader, on 01202 700675 for further details.

InSpired Ukuleles (131)
St Joseph & St Walburga RC Church - 2a Archway Road, Parkstone, Poole, BH14 9AZ
Please see day and time information on the Class Finder page
This class is aimed at players who feel comfortable handling their ukulele and want to get some more experience, mix with people from other groups and develop self-confidence. There is no formal teaching and you do not need to read music. We'll be strumming and singing and, along the way, you're bound to pick up hints and tips from each other. And who knows where this might lead - in 2017, I played with the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain. OK, there were a couple of hundred of us, but I shamelessly put it on my CV!
