Escape the plateau!
Ukulele Next Steps

Do you feel a bit stuck with your uke playing? Need inspiration to take things up a notch? This course is designed to help those wanting to get off that ukulele plateau and get to the next level and follows on from Matt’s Intermediate course. We'll look at a whole heap of varied subjects in a structured way including chord melody, advanced strumming, jazz chords, clawhammer, soloing, two part harmony, and playing by ear. This course features some extended 45 minute + videos.

Try the sample videos below for free and if you enjoy them you can subscribe to the whole 19 part course plus the two other main courses with Silver membership, or EVERY course with Gold.
