Live Session Archive

Aloha!  This page features Slack Key Workshop live lesson group videos with sheet music.  We have live lessons on Saturday’s at 10am Hawai’i time using Zoom.  Please let me know if you don’t receive a link and you would like to join the class.  At the moment the lesson videos can often take a little while to load.  You can spend that time tuning and warming up!  I hope you enjoy the lessons.  They are lot of fun and a great way for everyone on the website to connect, share ideas, play music together, get performing experience, and have the opportunity to ask questions.
