Did you know that the word Ukulele in English is ‘Uku’ = Flea and ‘Lele’ = Jumping?

Jumping Flea is said to relate to the quick finger action of movement across the ukulele strings. Ukuleles come in many types and size variants. It’s eclectic appeal has broken records for being the fastest growing musical fad of all time.

Due to such an easy to learn chord play, many a tune can be mastered by all walks of life. From 2 years to 102 years, anyone can play to their own style of music. Begging voice accompaniment, this recreational escape lends unbound opportunities to becoming a stage idol.

As active members performing with the Adelaide Ukulele Appreciation Society we have a ready-made social life.
