Ukulele Bootcamp at Washington City Community Center (St. George Area)
Love to sing? Ukulele is the perfect instrument for accompanying yourself! Learn to tune, hold, chord, strum, and sing along with your ukulele; all the basics you need to know to get you started on a life filled with ukulele bliss.
Note: This All-Ages class moves at a fair clip and lasts for two and a half hours. Children under ten should be accompanied by an adult learner who can reinforce the concepts taught at home.
About the Teacher: M. Ryan Taylor of UkulelePlay.com is the organizer of The Original Utah Uke Fest (since 2012) and director of Happy Valley Ukes : Utahs Ukulele Orchestra, performing regularly across the Wasatch Front. Ryan also teaches Weekly Ukulele Classes in Utah & Ukulele Bootcamps. Ryan also leads the two Ukulele Youth Choirs of the American Fork Childrens Choir. In Ryans words, I came to the ukulele after seeing Jake Shimabukuros rendition of While my Guitar Gently Weeps on YouTube. Jake inspired me and after getting familiar with the basics I started a ukulele program through the American Fork Childrens Choir. It turned out there were just as many teens, adults, and seniors in the community who wanted to learn and I just kept going, creating new learning materials as I went. Ryan has degrees in Vocal Performance (Bachelor of Music) and Music Composition (Master or Music) and is a Kodaly-certified music education specialist. He has worked professionally as a performing singer, recording artist, composer of vocal music, and director of choirs.
