How can beginners and non-musicians − who sound bad on the ukulele − get really good in just a few months?
Easy! It's called "Deliberate Practice." Instead of sending you off to do hours of boring practice alone... if you're willing to grab your ukulele and play along with my series of 7 minute video lessons you'll quickly be able to:

(even while singing!) - Jam Along With Other Musicians
Get good enough to play ukulele songs in the spotlight on
stage or just kick back on a porch with musician friends. - Entertain Your Friends and Family
The people you know will be amazed and stoked by your
progress (and so will you!) - Or Simply Play For Your Own Pleasure
From the comfort of your couch or perhaps just chilling on
beach - you’re going to learn the easiest ukulele tricks
for sounding good fast. Guaranteed!
Hello Uke Lover!
My name is JP Allen and I've been teaching and performing music professionally for over two decades:
I've taught at University of Texas, Austin Community College and even toured all over the world with Grammy nominated Abra Moore.
I particularly love teaching ukulele (and the harmonica) because they’re so dang easy to learn - when you learn the right way...
Why do so many people give up when trying to learn the uke, or any other instrument for that matter? And why do so few sound so good? A study in 1993 by Anders Ericsson lifts the lid...
The study revealed that if you want to get good at learning something then:
So what is the secret to getting great as quickly as possible? Simple: Deliberate Practice. My video lessons do this by...
Turning your uke-playing weakness into a strength by focusing on the things that will help you the most. They also help you enjoy yourself and avoid hours of ineffective practice that creates progress-slowing bad habits.
My Ukulele Buddy Video Method is the easiest way to keep you focused until you've mastered the uke because...
...all you've got to do is play along with my 7 minute videos, 3 times per week. You never have to practice alone - just grab your uke and strum along! Really?
Only 7 minutes 3 times per week? Yes.
Because my 100% video-based-method uses the PROVEN principles of Deliberate Practice you will get better faster.
Deliberate Practice is celebrated in Geoff Colvin's first book, "TALENT IS OVERRATED", which earned global acclaim as a NY TIMES & WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER.
...all you’ve got to do is grab your Uke and play along with my videos. You never have to practice alone - just play along!
As an another study, published in the Journal of Research in Music Education in 2009 explained, “It’s Not How Much; It’s How”. Here's how...
How can anyone get good at anything without practicing? The same way kids do. YOU PLAY!
All you've got to do is jam along with my video lessons and I can hand deliver you to a level that'll make your friends go “WOW!” Just grab your uke, cue up the video and jam along. Just play!
Once you finish one video, you move on to the next. You never have to practice alone because I will be playing with you and showing you exactly what to do every step of the way. This means...
1. Because I hold your hand through every step you'll avoid picking up those bad habits that often kill progress and cause frustration.
2. Practicing alone, effectively, can be mind numbingly boring. It's one of the most common reasons people give up. My lessons mean you don't have to practice alone (if you don't want to).
Just play along and you'll be pleasantly surprised at just how quickly you get sounding good.
The second common problem with learning the uke is that people just don't have enough hours in the day. I made sure my lessons were designed in such a way that you can progress with just 7 minutes, three times a week.
Seriously - with just 7 minutes of play, three times a week, I'll have you playing the songs you love in no time at all. The more you play along with my videos the faster you improve! (If you can’t give me a minimum of 7 minutes per week, then these lessons are probably not for you). That's not all though...
How do you make one of the best learning methods on the planet better? Simple. Get a world class uke teacher to join in the fun! Meet Mitch!
Mitch Chang is world famous for his uke playing and uke teaching ability. (He's also a music major grad from the University of Hawaii!)
With Mitch's crazy uke skills and my uke beginners play-along method, we will take you from being a newbie or struggling ukulele player to someone who can blow the roof off the house.
My lessons are suitable for Soprano ukes, Concert (aka Alto) ukes or Tenor size ukes. If you have a Baritone uke, just pop a capo on the 5th fret and you can play along with my lessons too! You can even play along with a Banjo Uke if you use a plectrum.
