Learn to play the Ukulele - No musical experience necessary.

Music on the Move is offering a series of Ukulele classes in cooperation with the City of Hiawatha. You will learn the basics of ukulele chords, strumming, and melody. You’ll come away with several songs under your fingers and the ability to figure out more on your own.

Buying a Ukulele

Students should come to the first class with their own ukulele if possible. You may borrow from our limited supply while shopping, if needed. I have listed a few options for quality instruments in the budget/beginner price range. You are certainly welcome to buy something nicer, if you’d like! Be careful of cheap ukuleles that are available online. The ukuleles below (not affiliate links) are quality instruments that I have played or researched. Please feel to reach out if you need help shopping. lisa@mymusiconthemove.com
