Less time nursing sore fingers means more time for making great music, less time for pain and frustration!
The perfect stepping stone.
Many of the techniques that work well on the ukulele also translate very well to other instruments, like the guitar and banjo.

About the Brainjo Premium Subscription.
More Music. Bigger Brain.
A growing body of scientific evidence indicates that stimulating neuroplasticity through the acquisition of new and complex knowledge and skills leads to brain growth, protects against cognitive decline and dementia, and restores brain tissue to a more youthful state.
And there’s nothing better for stimulating neuroplasticity across the whole brain – or giving you a “whole brain workout” – than learning a musical instrument.
In other words, learning a new musical instrument is the ideal “brain game.”
Furthermore, the greatest benefits to your brain occur when you’re in the earlier stages of learning, as the most brain change occurs early in the learning process.
So, in addition to those learning multiple instruments for the sheer joy of it, the Brainjo Premium Subscription is also for those looking to adopt a program of continuous musical learning as a means of optimizing the health and fitness of their brain.
