A couple of years ago, my daughter bought me a ukulele for Mother's Day because I had commented that one thing I had always wanted to do but never succeeded in doing was learning a musical instrument. I have piano at home that I bought for her when she was a child and I took lessons but didn't stick with it. Also I had taken ukulele lessons in Collingswood but at $25 a half hour once a week it was just too expensive and although I practiced because I was taking lessons and didn't want to show up for my lessons unprepared, when I stopped the lessons, I found I NEVER picked up the uke and just noodled around with it. The only thing I do that casually and frequently, is write and paint. So I figured I just wasn't cut out for music since I didn't do it on my own and every musician I have ever read about or known was drawn to play on their own from sheer joy of self expression through that media. That said, nonetheless, I found this offer interesting because it is accelerated and I think I can hold out for 6 weeks and because the cost is reduced for this program to $25 for 2 lessons a week rather than on (unless my math is faulty. By the way, learning something new has ALWAYS been scientifically proven to be good for your memory and the health of your brain!
Happy Trails!
