FAQ
What is Ukulele Wine Club?
Ukulele Wine Club is a resource to support your ukulele journey. It includes a monthly virtual meetup where ukulele beginners get together to learn a song, take a mini class with Kathryn and drink wine! It's very chill, low-pressure and a lot of fun. You also gain access to my PDF chord & lyric chart library, bonus videos not available anywhere else, and best of all, a supportive community of like-minded beginner ukulele players.
How often do we meet?
We meetup once a month. Join when you can, show up as you are! We occasionally meet during the day instead of the evening so our European members can join live. New day/time TBA soon!
How long is it?
Meetups generally last about an hour.
How much is it?
It's $5 a month to join through Patreon. I offer it at this low price so it's more accessible to all. (For context, I charge $60 for a one-to-one 45 minute lesson. ) The $5 helps cover a bare minimum of admin hours - prepping for the class, preparing the chord/lyric charts and creating the video tutorials. :)
How do I join the Ukulele Wine Club meetups?
We meetup on Zoom. The link and details are posted on Patreon each month. No need to RSVP each time, just show up when you can. :)
I don’t want to be on video! Do I have to?
Nope! You can participate as much as you want to. Remember: low pressure! If you just want to have it on in the background while you’re making dinner w/ your video off, that’s totally cool. Or if you want to turn on your video and strum & sip along with the group, that’s cool too! You will be muted as well, so no one will be able to hear you play, unless you need to unmute to ask Kathryn a question or chat during our wine breaks. :)
Will the sessions be recorded if I have to miss?
Yes, the sessions are recorded and will be posted on Patreon the next day.
Do I HAVE to show up prepared/do I need to practice beforehand?
You are welcome to review the song and chords ahead of time but you don’t have to! Show up as you are. I’ll do a quick chord review if needed, and then we workshop the song with plenty of options to meet you where you are or level up if you’re ready! I send out the PDF chord & lyric chart ahead of time but there's absolutely no pressure to practice beforehand.
We always do a full LIVE play through of the song (sometimes I play bass!) so you can get the experience of playing along with another musician.
Do I have to drink/like wine to join?
Nope! Only if you want to. :) Wine is always optional of course. Please drink responsibly.
What if I don’t have a ukulele yet?
No problem. You can still start learning the basics, and maybe you’ll get inspired to get your first instrument soon. ;)
Can I invite a friend?
Yes! The more the merrier. :)
Is learning ukulele and drinking wine the best idea ever?
YEP! It totally is.
Who are you?
My name is Kathryn and I have my Masters degree in music. I've been teaching music (piano, voice, ukulele & songwriting) to adults and kids for over 12 years. My passion lies in helping people play more music with others and unlocking your creativity!
What if I don’t know how to play any chords yet?
I got you! Once you're a member, you'll have access to my beginner course called Ukulele Basics for Total Beginners. It includes everything you. need to get started including a workbook with beginner chords and tons of resources!
