Site Membership Plans
From FREE to never pay again plans - there is something for everyone!!!
As the site has grown over the years ( on the web since 1992 ) and I add, update and tweak the site's lessons and content, it gets harder to justify the amount of free content that I give away. Not that I wouldn't like to give it all away for FREE — - seems people don't mind getting stuff for FREE. I honestly can't justify that with the cost, time, effort and resources that go into the maintaining the site and the effort it takes to supply the quality content for free. Additionally, it does cost a bit to host, pay for the search tools and manage the site in all its `ukulele glory. My goal all along is to simply cover the cost of the site and related expenses.
For a listing of the lessons that fall into the Bronze and Gold membership levels checkout their respective pages:
The above subscription plans ARE re-occurring subscriptions and billed automatically each billing cycle. Set yourself a reminder and don't be surprised. Or cancel it right away and it will end at the end of the billing cycle.
Or just pay once with the Forever Plan and be done with it and never pay again.
This is the cost of one or two months of private lessons – A great deal!!!

Basically you need to cancel you current subscription, I'll reset your level to the FREE Bronze level, then you purchase the forever membership and you're good to go - I'll set you level to Gold and Forever when I get the email notifying me of you new membership.

I wanted to pay you a compliment. (Now don't get a big head!). I have purchased many books over the past 15 years I have been playing and none of them come even close to having the detailed and easy to understand information yours have. I really got a chance to get some practicing in and am finding your books to be such a great learning tool. I also purchased a timer like you suggested and my practice sessions the past 4 days have been my best in years. - Take care, - Nick Matty

Just browsing over both books, they look fantastic! I'm a guitarist and uke player for over 25 years and was thinking about writing a ukulele book but you've already written what I think are the best, most comprehensive and thorough books I've ever seen for the instrument. I just might end up buying every book you've written and I'll be giving my highest recommendation for your books to my friends and students. Thank you so much for taking the time to write such great books! — Peter Rhee
