Our Livestreams began as a way to connect more with our Online Ukulele School in 2018. Since then, they have now become free to the public! All materials are shown on screen, however, if you would like to support our livestreams, please consider purchasing a packet to go with your corresponding livestream workshop. Scroll down to see what’s coming up next and our past workshops, including special guests.

We are excited to be hosting our good friend, Neal Chin, for our next livestream workshop! He is going to take us through some great fingerstyle techniques, utilizing etudes to help us work on picking patterns and single note picking. This is a great workshop for those who are wanting to do more picking. All skill levels are welcome!

There is only one packet available and it includes extra goodies including:
