The First Ukulele Course is Ready! (Patreon)

A few months ago, I asked you guys if I should make a ukulele course. Most of you said yes! So ... I think it's time to bring structured content to my lovely uke family!

Now, I love you all, so I am gonna be 100% honest with you!

I am tired!

Not just a little bit!

Between my guitar channel, uke channel, and guitar channel in Italian (Yes, this one too), I spend hours every single week recording and organizing the new lessons.

I also have a three months old son looking at me all the time, distracting me from work, hehe! 

Sometimes he's next to me while I am working, playing, or editing, making me feel like I am the luckiest dad in the world.

I am happy, but I am tired!

Despite all that, the first ukulele course is ready!

I did it! And I can't believe it. How did I manage to do it?

Let me explain (I hope you have three minutes).

In the past, all my courses had a minimum of 50/60 videos per course.

It's a lot of work!

The problem is, I am always scared to under-deliver, so every time I am organizing a new course, I keep telling myself, "Oh, I need to add that video too," so I always end up with a ton of stuff to record end edit!

It takes between three to five months to make such a course.

So, the idea of having to do the same with the ukulele filled me with fear. Realistically, I don't have enough time and energy for such a lengthy course.

That's why I kept pushing the idea away.

One day my wife goes like, "Why don't you make a mini-course? I think that nobody has the time to go through 50 or 60 lessons."

So I have been thinking about this course for months, and I couldn't find a way to get started.

And there she comes, suggesting the best idea ever while steering pasta and holding my son Alex at the same time.

We can't compete with women! Sorry boys! "The wife is always right."

Let me tell you about the course. 

You see, the word "Mini-course" feels so freaking amazing because it implies that it's short and doable (for both of us).

I jotted down a few ideas and voilá! I had the mini-course ready.

About 10 lessons with 4 songs. Of course, the course covers a specific topic/technique.

It took me three weeks (Compared to the usual three to five months).

This works for both of us.

For me: I can finish the course quickly, which is awesome and inspiring.

For you: You can have a mini-course that doesn't feel impossible or too long to finish.

For us: We both work on new stuff every month or so!

These mini-courses aim to (finally) bring structured content to my ukulele family (You, guys).

So many emails saying, "The YouTube lessons are great, but they are all different! Do you have a course?"

Well, thank you a ton for inspiring me to do this. I am learning a lot from each one of you!

Think about a mini-course on basic chords for beginners. Or a mini-course on music theory. A mini-course on beautiful chords. The choices are endless!

We cal also do live Q&A for each course so that you can interact with me and ask questions! (I am still working on this one).

The mini-course(s) will be hosted on the Patreon page but for a higher (still affordable) tier. 

We are preparing the website to make the lessons and courses easy to find. 

I will keep you posted in a day or two when the course is ready to launch!

This one is about a fingerstyle technique called "Alternate Fingering." So, we gonna be plucking a lot of notes, melodies, scales, and chords!

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK DOWN BELOW!
