Item Description
The ultimate ukulele package--a gift certificate for 4 group lessons, 3 CDs and a Roy Sakuma Treasury of Ukulele chords book from Roy Sakuma Productions!
Roy Sakuma is recognized as Hawaii's foremost ukulele teacher and proponent of the instrument. Innovative, inspirational, warm, funny and kind are all words used to describe Roy. In over 30 years of teaching the ukulele, he has been all of these things and more in his role as teacher, producer, promoter and inspiration to thousands of students and the island community that benefits from his talents.
In the 1960's, as America's youth latched onto the larger, louder, more swaggering guitar, the little instrument from Hawaii was relegated to the attic. Roy knew the instrument's true worth. And so for over the past 30 years, with his wife Kathy, and their staff of instructors and supporters, his mission has been to spread the joy of the ukulele. Along with teaching students, Roy promotes an annual Ukulele Festival, the largest festival of its kind in the world.
The ukulele has come a long way. It's cool to play the ukulele. Youngsters jam at school between classes, at the park and the mall. The ukulele embraces everyone who hears it. As Roy Sakuma understood decades ago, that's the irresistible charm of the ukulele.
There are four Roy Sakuma studios on O'ahu: in Kaimuki, 'Aiea, Kane'ohe and Mililani.
