Why do so few sound good? And why do so many people give up when trying to learn the uke? 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 focusing on the things that will help you the most (in a way that turns weaknesses into strengths … simply and systematically).
All you've got to do is play along with three 7-minute videos per week, and your progress will skyrocket.
You will get better faster, because my videos use the PROVEN principles of Deliberate Practice.
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.
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...
Boredom (from mind-numbing practice), combined with bad habits, are a recipe for disaster.
My video lessons will work for you ...
… because I don’t ask you to pause the video and practice alone, like the other ukulele video lessons do.
Let’s face it. Practicing alone can be boring. And when you practice alone it’s too easy to develop bad habits, because there’s no one there to guide you.
With my 100% play-along videos, you’ll have fun and you’ll develop good habits, because we’ll play together and practice together every step of the way.
If you're willing to kick back and strum along with my quick and simple videos, you'll be "hand-delivered" to a level your friends go "Wow! in a matter weeks.
The second common problem with learning the uke is that people just don't have enough hours in the day.
Are you up for playing along with three 7-minute videos per week?
If you can, my Ukulele Buddy video lessons will be perfect for you. If not, you might as well just save your money. It took me over 25 years to distill this 100% video-based method down to its maximum potency. Three 7-minute videos per week is the sweet spot.
And YES … The more you play along with my videos, the faster you’ll improve!
How do you make one of the best learning methods on the planet better? Simple. Get a world-class uke player to join in the fun. Meet Mitch!
Mitch will show you how you can go onto the Internet and play any song you want for free (by understanding ultra-simplified ukulele tabs).

I signed up for uke lessons because I couldn't find anyone in our vicinity you could teach me properly. I can say that I love your website lessons and it has given my hours of help on learning my favourite instrument.
Queensland, Australia
If you’re an Advanced Musician, this course is probably not right for you. But if you’re someone who has noodled around with ukulele or other instruments with little success, you’re going to be playing at a level that makes your friends go “Wow!” in no time.
Happy strummin'!

NOTES
iPHONE/iPAD USERS:
Once you download the videos, you'll need to sync the video files you want to watch onto your device using the iTunes software.
ANDROID USERS:
Depending upon your operating system, you should be able to save the videos to a folder of your choice and play them in Gallery or with the built-in video player. If the built-in player can't play them, you'll need an app that can. Google Play has a lot of those. My personal favorite is MX Player. Other good ones are VPlayer and Mobo Player. And there are numerous others. These will play just about any video format. The formats it can't play are rare.
Our course is compatible with the following ukulele types:
soprano
concert (aka alto)
tenor
baritone*
*BARITONE:
You can definitely use a Baritone uke with our lesson program; you'll just need to put a capo on the 5th fret.
This converts the tuning to GCEA, which allows you to follow along with the lessons.
This capo at the link below seems like the best option, weighing quality and price. It's for banjo but will work for uke:
Jim Dunlop 85 Bb Dunlop Banjo Capo Blk
ANOTHER SPECIALTY OPTION - the "banjo uke" or "banjolele":
Yes, the course is suitable for the banjo uke.
You may need to use a plectrum or “pic,” as the banjo uke strings are a bit different than the ones on other ukes.
Here's my thinking: As a left-handed player, you will need to learn to adapt to a right-handed world ... I think our series will be an excellent way for you to learn to quickly translate the right-handed techniques into left-handed ones, because my teaching style is so compassionate to beginners.
Also, our series will be like looking in a mirror, which should be very helpful. This mirror effect will be much simpler than trying to learn from a CD or book, which can be confusing.
So I say go for it. I think you will be delighted with the results. (I'm saying that because I really want you to have a great time learning the uke!)
The songbooks and other bonuses are all available via instant online access.
