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.

I had a fantastic time here on a fall retreat with the Harvard Glee Club! This music camp is wonderfully isolated from the rest of the world and instead surrounds you with beautiful greenery. The practice halls are very homely, and the living accommodations are quite decent. Would definitely love to visit again.

It’s truly a very Greenwood. We play music and also music and there’s music. Don’t go if you don’t like music because this camp is very music. If you play violin, viola, cello, flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, or horn, then you should Greenwood because Greenwood is Greenwood. Don’t come expecting to see green wood, because you will not find any. However there is music and also real life among us on the last week. I met people at Greenwood. They are all very.

School of Rock

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.
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.
The teachers are patient and make learning fun. The school puts on great shows. Everyone is friendly. The students have a great time!
Unfair and whilst going I never felt very welcomed

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!
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 daughter’s been taking drum lessons at SoR for a little over a year, and the school and teachers really keep her engaged and interested. The Rock 101 program is pretty amazing, as well — what better way to learn than by doing??!! She had so much fun at her first performance and can’t wait until the next one. She’s also looking forward to SoR camp this summer.
And big shoutout to Cassie, who’s been (and continues to be) so helpful and understanding of our needs during our time here.
They have been amazing. Always a positive experience when we are there. My daughter is learning so much, so quickly. She has fun all while learning. During Covid they make sure masks, distancing and hygenine guidelines are followed. Definitely worth every penny
School of Rock Norwood has been such a great place for our son!
Update Sept 2023: The Norwood School of Rock fell apart in Spring 2023 due to actions of the owners. Big staff and leadership turnover. They are currently trying to get back on their feet. I ended up leaving due to the culture shock.
Original review: I am learning drums and am part of the adult rock band group at School of Rock Norwood. Combining the lesson with the group is a great way to stay motivated. The group is chill and accepting of all of its members. The staff are zany, super smart, and talented. They get you playing, giving just enough theory and exercises to get you good enough to play, mixed with lots of playing real songs from day 1. Thanks for making my day, School of Rock Norwood!

Powers Music School
Address: 160 Lexington St, Belmont, MA 02478 , Powiat oświęcimski , Massachusetts , United States
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.
Enjoying Music Pups, songs are addictive
Great school: well run, offering a wide range of music classes, and with excellent teachers
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
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 !!!!!!!!
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!
