My son (12) plays drums, and my daughter (14) plays guitar. We’ve been going to SoR Natick since late February and they are having a great time.
It is expensive, especially with two kids going at the same time, but if you count the 2.5 hours a week of rehearsal time + the .75 hours a week of instruction time it comes out to about $23/hour ($325 a month divided by ~14 hours/month). Granted they are not playing for the full 2.5 hours of rehearsal time, it’s still a good value if you consider music store lessons are $25-$35 for a *half* hour.
The performance program also encourages the kids to practice more often then when they were taking individual lessons. If you value working as a team as a valuable life skill, but your child is not a team sports kind of kid (or maybe you’re not a team sports kind of parent…) SoR is a great program for them to learn work as a team while building a skill they’ll have for life.
I have been learning electric guitar here for 2 years best session of my people here are so nice and helpful
How much fun is this! A terrific path towards learning an instrument…. proving the School of Rock is for all ages (I’m 56)…… my son, 10, inspired me…
Total blast.

Our kids had a blast at School of Rock camp with Mark, Celine, and Hannah. I cannot recommend this method and team enough! our kids had no real music experience and came out of the camp excited to learn more and hone their new skills as music lovers. Thank you!
My son loves the format, can’t recommend this method enough, he’s very engaged and enthusiastic about going to lessons! The owner Mark and his employees are very nice and accommodating to my son and I. We highly recommend School of Rock Burlington!

My son started here in 2015. His love and passion for music has grown so much!! The instructors and staff care deeply about their students and are extremely patient. If you have a chance, check out any Schools of Rock, you won’t be disappointe.
My Son looks forward to his lessons every single week! He has been very motivated to play his guitar with a mission to constantly improve himself. This has had tremendous impact in giving him a positive self esteem. I’m truly glad he has joined SOR and they certainly have my continued support.
There is a real sense of community. They create a space for creative kids to be themselves and listen to what the kids are interested in.
Unfair and whilst going I never felt very welcomed
Greenwood Music Camp
Address: 32 Harlow Rd, Cummington, MA 01026 , Łabowa , Massachusetts , United States
My daughter loved this place from the first time. She wanted also do summer camp there. Teachers are very knowledgeable and caring. Front desk helpful and amazing. Totally recommend it
My daughter loves rock music and it is fun to see her following her passion. Being in a band has given her an opportunity to learn about the importance of commitment; how to work as a group; and that each person’s contribution is valuable. She has gained more confidence in herself. She has recently started taking private lessons at Bach 2 Rock with her Rock Band teacher. The one on one time is helping her grow in her instrument.
Powers Music School

We get to know this wonderful school by attending their storytelling concert at library. I’m impressed by the professional performance, so I register my kid for the Music pups class. Both of us love this class a lot. The teacher Jennifer is awesome. She’s very passionate and knows how to engage everyone in the class. Both of my kid and I enjoyed sing and dance with her in the class. It helped us build a good memory that will last a long time. And I also learned some music that I could sing to my child in the future. I highly recommend this class to anyone that have babies / toddlers.
Great school: well run, offering a wide range of music classes, and with excellent teachers
We love the music pops (for infants and toddlers). The teacher is very nice and good at motivating parents and children to sing and dance together. We love the songs. Listening to the songs and singing them in the car with our daughter in the car everyday is such a great fun! We have attended two sessions. Highly recommend this class for parents with infants and/or children aged up to 4!
I have taken all 4 of my children to Music Pups at Powers over the years. We love it! The older kids still sing the songs.
I Hate it so much
I bought a whole session piano class for my niece and then the course was not sufficient so her mom decided to drop but they did not allow for a refund. When she called them to postpone remaining classes for next season they said its okay but asked for extra money from her. Very disappointed. Money is gone without my niece taking any valuable classes!
They are not helpful they waste my money didn’t helped me for that i paid whole summer tuition but we couldn’t get more than 2 classes because of their misunderstanding and they did nothing for that !!!!!!!!
