Ukulele Groups
The ukulele is a fun and beginner-friendly instrument that has just four strings and simple chords. Students of all ages can quickly start playing songs, which helps boost their confidence and creativity. It is perfect for group lessons, making it ideal for singing, strumming, and sharing music together!

John has been active in the Waupaca arts community since moving here in 1998, performing in several musicals, bands, and singing groups. A relatively late-bloomer in becoming a musician and singer, he genuinely appreciates the value of fostering and encouraging the performer in all of us.
His teaching experience includes substitute teaching for four school districts in the area, as well as getting beginners to play guitar. In John's former life, he taught group golf lessons and can still give some valuable pointers. He looks forward to joining the incredible Arts Hub team, including his wife Kathy who teaches piano and voice.
