Ukulele "Tune Up" in Buffalo NY with Stuart Fuchs

Stu is very excited to be returning to Buffalo NY - his home of 20 years. This Ukulele Fiesta will be a very fun afternoon of ukulele workshops plus a special intimate concert!

This workshop is for ukulele enthusiasts of ALL LEVELS. Stu's decades of experience in teaching will get set on the right track for your ukulele journey. You'll receive a big boost to your ukulele playing as we review many of the fundamentals of strumming, rhythm, chords, how make practicing more fun and effective - and more! By the end of this session you'll understand how to play with greater coordination, speed, tone a relaxed control.

While this session is geared for beginners, there will be plenty of great takeaways for more experienced players who would like to go deeper into their study of the uke and music in general.

With Stu's playful techniques for learning, you will be surprised by how much fun you can have while improving your skills. As a group we will jam on some very fun songs from a treasury of fun and easy tunes - many with just two or three chords!

In this workshop Stu will also lead the group through a sequence of his "Ukulele Zen" exercises that will strengthen & improve the flexibility in your hands and fingers. These unique exercises will help you play your ukulele in an ergonomic way and lead to a pleasing tone, playing single string melody lines, and more. You'll sharpen your ears and your playing through simple and highly effective holistic practice techniques that Stu has used for decades.

Hope you'll join us for this fun afternoon of ukulele workshops - you'll come away with great tips on how to practice & improve your ukulele playing while learning together in community!

After the workshop Stu will play a short set of his solo ukulele music and then hanging out for an informal meet and greet. Looking forward to seeing you there!
