From Broadway to cruise ships, Fortune 100 companies to classrooms, Mele’s music is about ‘Ohana and aloha.

Join the ‘Ukulele with Mele ‘Ohana on Skool

Step into a different kind of music lesson. ʻUkulele with Mele is about connection—not just to the instrument, but to a global community of students who’ve learned with me over the years, whether on cruise ships or in private lessons, and are ready to keep growing together.

I love teaching beginners and longtime players alike. No pressure, no perfection—just real learning, good music, and a space where you can move at your own pace.

Our community now lives on Skool, and I’d love for you to be part of it. Come join us.

If you’d like a little extra along the way, I also share free videos and PDF chord charts each month through my mailing list. You’re always welcome there too.

Around the World ‘Ohana

Most ʻUkulele with Mele students begin their journey somewhere at sea. Whether they’re picking up the instrument for the very first time or returning to it after years away, our community spans oceans and continents.

Even after Mele disembarks, the music continues. Dedicated student liaisons keep the learning alive onboard, creating spaces for others to grow, connect, and play. Many of these students go on to perform together during the voyage—sharing not just songs, but confidence, joy, and a sense of belonging.

Here’s a glimpse into our global ʻohana—music, memories, and community from ships around the world.
