My son has been going to school of rock for over 2 years and absolutely loves it. He is obsessed with music and this school is a large reason why. The instructors clearly care about the kids and the music. I wish were music classes like this when I was a kid.
In addition to my regular instructor, I have had lessons with at least 6-7 other instructors at School of Rock. I appreciated the encouragement, level of knowledge, and unique approach provided by all of them.
I love that the kids are encouraged to try out different instruments and to create. The teachers were amazing and so supportive. Sofia had a fantastic time and she came out of there so confident which we loved! She had no fear performing even though she had only played these instruments for 3 days before they show. So cool!
I don't know much about the rookies program in terms of specifics. But my son really likes the class. We have activities every day after school and school of rock is his favorite.
My son went for a week during Spring Break and he had the best time. The teacher was so cool and nice. The kids collaborated on songs and made band posters and performed at the end of the week. They live streamed it so our out of town family could watch. Every day when I picked him up he talked about how much fun he had. Best Spring Break ever!
My daughter is in the Little Wing program and I love that she is learning about many different instruments. It gives her exposure to instruments that she may not have known about. However, the best part is that now she wants to listen to AC/DC whenever she gets in my car!
The lessons are personalized to the music you want to play, the staff and teachers are all nice and knowledgeable, and the organization is deeply welcoming to all.
