Music And Rock School Prior to beginning lessons at Music and Rock School each student is interviewed to determine elements that will be key to their success, such as favorite musical styles and artists, previous lessons or training, and their expectations. While weekly lessons lay the foundation for learning an instrument, the real fun begins when you apply that knowledge. At Music & Rock School we encourage all of our students to get involved in our performance-based programs to realize their potential by playing, not just practicing.

At Music and Rock School we understand that every student is different, so there isnt a single right way to learn. Some students excel at learning music by ear while others are more comfortable learning from a book. Additionally, each student has his or her own goals and objectives. As instructors, our job is not to dictate how and what each student will learn, but to work with students (and parents) to determine those goals and objectives, and give them the tools to succeed!

Just noticed that I hadn't reviewed these guys. My son has been taking guitar lessons here for about 2 years now and absolutely loves it. The guys are super friendly and make taking lessons both fun and informative. Highly recommended.

My kids 3 kids take drum, vocal, and guitar lessons at the music and rock school. It has been an amazing experience. They started at ground zero and now one year later we can jam as a family. It has been so much fun! I recommend them to anyone looking to get into music or take their skills to the next level. I've been playing guitar for 25 years and I could learn volumes from the instructors at the music and rock school, yet at the same time the instructors can relate to beginners. Hard to beat.

My son has been taking electric guitar lessons here for almost a year and loves it. He looks forward to going every week. As a parent, I have also enjoyed his lessons because the instructors are so friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible when scheduling issues occasionally arise. I truly feel my money is well spent here and highly recommend.

Great teachers who work really well with kids and beginners! My daughter is 8 years old and loves her music lessons. The lessons are geared to keep kids interested in music, they get to pick a song that they want to learn and it's incorporated into the lesson, which is a great change from only learning the typical beginner songs that they're not passionate about. We love this music school and highly recommend you check it out!

Our teenage daughter has been taking guitar lessons at Music and Rock School for about three years now and has taken voice lessons too before that and she absolutely loves it here. Jacob teaches her guitar and is an amazing teacher. If we have to reschedule a class due to another conflict, they go above and beyond to accommodate the class on a future date. All the teachers are so friendly with kids and provide a relaxed environment for them. We highly recommend Music and Rock school for all our friends.

My daughter is 10 and LOVES taking guitar lessons with Jacob at Music and Rock School. She loves that each week she learns to play her favorite songs she has downloaded or hears on the radio. Jacob is a great teacher and has done an amazing job teaching my daughter chords and guitar basics in a fun, low-key setting!

Such a great music school! The instructors are friendly and know how to make learning an instrument fun. They're great with kids, but I've seen people of all ages coming and going from lessons while waiting for my daughter. She's 8 and currently takes piano lessons with Jacob, who is patient and fun, and pretty talented himself! She has also taken guitar with Daniel and he was a great instructor as well.

The thing that sets Music and Rock School apart is that they gear the lessons toward the student, teaching them music that they're interested in along with the basics of reading music. My daughter is so excited to practice and go to lessons, she really enjoys learning music that she can sing along with!

My son has been at the Music and Rock school for a year. He is 6 and loves it. The instructors are so patient and knowledgeable. We had considered a church music program - but they snubbed their nose at teaching lessons to a 5 year old. Then I read all the great reviews about the Music and Rock School. I am so glad we ended up there!

I have been taking guitar lessons at the Music and Rock School for 18 months. The instructors are extremely knowlegeable and personable. I feel that they enjoy what they do and truly care about teaching music and music theory. The school offers many opportunities to perform solo or within a band setting. I highly recommend the school for anyone new to music or for those that want to get off the plateau and reach the next level.

My 10 year old son takes piano lessons with Shavon and loves it. This is a great little school. The staff is professional and friendly, and the facility is nice and clean. I recommend it highly.

My daughter (and I) have been taking lessons here starting around the first year they were in business. Our experience and results has more than exceeded our expectations. The teachers are top notch qualified musicians with lots of patience and experience. The Master's Program and All Access Program are also lots of fun. You get to play with other students (and sometimes the teachers) in a band rehearsal setting, and that experience you just can't beat. The twice yearly concerts are also a great way to show off your skills. If you want to learn Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboards or Vocals, this is the place to go.

My 12 year old daughter is a guitar student at Music and Rock School and we are having such an awesome experience there. She came to the school a little over a year ago with about 3 years of prior lessons and a bit unsure about starting at a new place. She was very comfortable at MaRS right from the first lesson! They have great teachers that offer a welcoming approach with students.

The atmosphere there is the perfect balance between professional and artistic. They offer flexibility while working with you towards your goals. In her own words. "I really love having guitar lessons here. The teachers make sure that the students feel comfortable and are happy with the situation. It is a great enviorment and the teachers make it easy for you to ask questions. The teachers give the students their full attention and are able to combine learning new things with some of your favorite songs."
