Reviews

I am so thankful for School of Rock!

Our son has been taking guitar here for the past three years. The team at School of Rock is fabulous. My son loves learning from them and loves performing in the shows. If my son had more hours in the day, he'd probably want to go to School of Rock on a daily basis.

It's a REAL rock show!

My 10-year-old daughter has been playing electric guitar here since she was eight and she's developed so much confidence. The shows they do are amazingly well-produced. This isn't like going to watch a bunch of kids playing recorders in a school gym.

What more could you want for an 11-year-old?!

My daughter sings at School of Rock and she feels confident, safe and empowered. It's a great way to socialize kids away from their normal social circles. I'm so happy to have a place for my daughter where the peer pressure is positive and constructive.

I wish this place was around when I was learning to play!

Like a lot of kids, it was a bit of a challenge to find an activity that put a fire in my son's belly. We signed up for a trial lesson at School of Rock and the rest is history! I would recommend School of Rock to anyone whose child shows any interest at all in playing music.
