We love SoR!!! Our son (Alex B) has been playing there for about 6 years. He loves hard rock (KISS, GnR, AC/DC, etc), and he’s played in many shows. He’s also played in at least one week of camp every summer, which is a very different experience–pulling a show together in a short period of time with kids you don’t know–very impressive! There’s a song he’s played in three different shows over the years–Smells Like Teen Spirit. It’s been great to see his skill, confidence, and stage presence improve each time he plays it. Outside of SoR, Alex practices on his own, learns new riffs from YouTube, collects guitars, and has even built his own guitar. As a young child, he was shy and very quiet. As he has matured, he has definitely come out of his shell with the help of the performance program. Thank you SoR NC!
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.
My boys have grown and thrived at School of Rock. What began as an additional activity for our younger son to explore his interest in percussion as become a mainstay with both of our sons. We are on our combined 7th showcase heading into our eighth.One music director in particular, Tyler Bernhardt, has had such an impact on our oldest son that he composed his essay application as a camp counselor based on Tyler’s character and his impact on him as a youth advisor. There were no fewer than 20 individuals in a leadership role that he could have used as an example but he chose Tyler. The impact of positive role models on young people imperative. School of Rock in New Canaan is an exceptional place to engage your child in music.
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

Esteban does a wonderful job with my daughter. He’s so knowledgeable, patient and makes the classes so fun. I would definitely recommend 10/10!
We highly recommend Judah’s Camp! My son (6) takes private piano lessons and has been learning so much. Esteban is super patient with him, keeps him engaged and makes lessons fun. I am amazed at how far he has come in just a few months.
My son and daughter (4) also participate in the Intro to Music classes for homeschoolers. Last year, we did not incorporate music into our studies and were very fortunate to find this program. My kids look forward to music class every week. You will not be disappointed!
One of the best experiences I’ve had recording. I came all the way from Virginia to record. Professional atmosphere. Producer challenges you and knows what he’s talking about. He knows how to capture the full essence of what you want for your music. Lots of connections to get you want you need. Great teacher as well!
