What will I learn from ukulele lessons at Westminster Arts Academy?
Beginner ukulele students can expect to work on chords, simple songs and melodies, sight-reading, and theory. Our instructors balance musicianship and fun by ensuring that each lesson presents a new technical challenge or theory concept and ends with something fun, such as your favorite riff or song. We use a variety of ukulele method books and have computers in every classroom to play your favorite melodies.
Are there ukulele recitals?
Absolutely! Every Summer and Winter, students have the opportunity to perform in an actual theater and be treated like a pop star! Unlike most of our competitors, we do not charge students a fee to perform. All family and friends are welcome to attend. In addition to the on-stage recitals, we also provide virtual concerts and performances around the community. See our performance page for more information.
