A three week course of 3 x one hour sessions aimed at improving your ability to move between chords in-time and in a smooth fashion! Hesitation between chords is the main problem for ukulele learners, so let's fix it! We will enjoy some great songs in the process of learning strategies and exercises to help the left hand and the mind jump quickly between all of the common chords we use. (Yes, including Bm!). There will be plenty of learning and plenty of playing! For upper-beginner to upper-intermediate players. Music will be sent in advance. A video clip will be filmed each week summarising the learning points. Come along and learn how to never miss a beat with that left hand!
