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.
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!
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 instructors, all multi-instrumental and well-trained, very welcoming attitudes and approach to adult and student-aged musicians.
Our child loves School of Rock. The instructors are knowledgeable and talented. They encourage him to explore different types of music as he evolves his drumming.
A great family oriented place who is great with kids and even more patient with adults (big kids)! The ownership and staff are very accommodating and communicate in an exceptional manner…And the teacher I have experienced are remarkably talented professionals.
