Lots of fun, great staff, great teachers, I really like it!
New Canaan is pretty baron for shy kids who don’t love sports and this is the perfect, creative outlet which provides camaraderie. I’ve watched my son grow hugely in confidence because of School of Rock. Big shout out to Tyler who was there from the start and showed encouragement and support every step of the way. Also, Brian who is now honing his keyboard skills so he gets to play with his Dad’s band. Not forgetting Todd who is always welcoming – incredibly inspiring staff. Best thing we ever did.
My 8 yo boy absolutely loved his experience with School of Rock in New Canaan. We’re sticking with them for many years to come! Amazing staff and teachers who are just perfect with kids.
There’s a lot of kids in these programs… some work harder than others and it’s clear they have their favorites. If you’re not one of them, it will just be an average experience, so don’t be fooled by the high ratings. Unless you really push for it, don’t expect much.

Great set of instructors that keep you engaged and excited to continue learning. Learn the songs you love not the songs from some book that nobody really wants to learn. Staff is very nice too. Can’t go wrong

My 7 year old daughter has been asking to play guitar for a few years. We decided to give School of Rock a try and are so glad we did. The Rock 101 program has made her more confident. She was nervous to try the band rehearsals at first but now loves them. She has also tried drums, keyboard and even vocals. Kyle and the instructors are so kind and encouraging. Highly recommend if your child is looking to try something new and gain confidence in themselves.
My kids love going to music class. They are playing the instruments they want to learn, drums, keyboard and guitar. The staff is great to work with and great to them!
These people give their all for your kids. Creating fun, exciting memories. Music enhances thier minds and souls. They learn cooperation, compromise, and teamwork….not to beat someone else but to improve and collaborate. It’s the best investment you can make for your kids.

We’ve had an excellent experience with this new location of the reputable School of Rock franchise. During COVID, we were very pleased with the quality of the remote instruction and the follow up from Scott and team. An added bonus is that they will be conveniently situated in Blue Back Square!
West Hartford School of Rock is absolutely phenomenal! The confidence that they build is simply astounding. My son went from a kid who was too shy to raise his hand in class, to a kid who got up on stage in front of a 100+ crowd and not only played the guitar, but did vocals on a number of songs. The teachers make the lessons fun and build the kids up with confidence and a love of learning their instrument.
Amazing team of teachers and owners! They have a unique approach – learn music as a group to understand working together as a group – or a band (with eventual option for private lesson add ons). He always comes out of class happy and feeling supported by the teachers. My son had to pivot because of attention issues. Rather than chastise him and set him up for failure, the staff at School of Rock approached it with positivity and kindness. He is now in private lessons and enjoying it. Thank you School of Rock!
School of rock, Rocks!!!!

Your teachers are excellent and my son has so much enthusiasm for playing the drums. The teachers are excellent (he is currently with Niles, but we have been happy with everyone he has had the last four years), and Adam does an excellent job running the SOR.
Very cool vibe great people the guy kid to me has it all together they make you feel comfortable from the start
We like the freedom that the kids have, to try new instruments . We love that they really can experience what preparing a concert means. Is way more than a classic music school, the lessons are way more than regular music lessons……is the full package of experiences and emotions that play in a music band can give, and kids love it!

This place has become a second home to me! I love going here.
NHAOPA is such an awesome and loving place. They helped me to improve my acting and singing skills while still being able to have fun and make friends with likeminded people. This past summer was my first NHAOPA show and it truly was the best summer of my life and I never thought it would be. All the kids that go there are like family to me and they are all so accepting, the first day I walked in expecting to be lonely for the rest of the week but almost right away the kids invited me in and it only took about a half an hour and we were close friends! NHAOPA is not only teaching students to be professional with their craft but also teaching them valuable life lessons on how to be kind.
Today was my consultation and I was extremely nervous and anxious. Neil, one of the owners, came outside to meet me and showed me around. I was immediately put at ease by his warm inviting personality and positive energy. My instructor Sergio was extremely patient with me and took his time walking me through the exercises. Billy, the other owner, was wonderful with the sign up process and all three gave me great hope that I can finally realize my dream of learning to sing. I am so SUPER excited
