Workshop DESCRIPTION

Want to play in a band onstage? Our Rock 101 workshop is designed for beginners 7-12 years of age. No experience necessary! Students will explore their instruments through musical games and activities. Students will learn songs by artists such as the White Stripes, Green Day and Imagine Dragons (song selection will vary by location). Our nurturing environment makes this the perfect workshop for budding musicians. Students will work on songs Monday through Friday and the workshop will culminate in a concert at the end of the week for family and friends.

What to expect

Students attending Rock 101 workshop can expect to spend the majority of their time this week rehearsing songs geared towards beginners. However, they will also take some time to get to know their band mates, play games, and it all culminates in a performance! 

At School of Rock, we are committed to creating a safe and welcoming environment for all students. To help us maintain this space, we ask parents to avoid packing any nut products in lunches or snacks. We also prohibit any toy or real weapons from being brought to the school.

Our summer workshop performances are held outdoors at School of Rock.
