We signed two of our boys up for School of Rock over the summer, and it quickly became the…read morehighlight of the week for both of them. They looked forward to every class, and it was incredible to see their confidence and love of music grow. The instructors were fantastic, especially Noah, the keys instructor. After every practice, he sent thoughtful, detailed notes that were such a joy to read. He always highlighted our son's progress, spoke so positively about his potential, and made it clear that he truly cared about helping each student grow. Those updates meant so much to us as parents. The owner, Michael, is also wonderful to work with. He's incredibly hands-on, approachable, and genuinely invested in the success of both the students and the program. You can tell he pours his heart into creating a positive experience for every family. We also had the pleasure of interacting with Lex and Ally, and they were just as amazing--friendly, helpful, and always willing to answer questions or lend a hand. We're so grateful for the entire School of Rock team for making this such a positive and memorable experience. We highly recommend this program to any family looking for a fun, encouraging, and supportive place for their kids to learn music!

Because of this just the thought of having to 'dance' in public normally makes me flee in the opposite direction, or at the very least break into a sweat, lol! I am however an eternal optimist & decided to give an intro beginners class a chance. I'm glad I did :) I had SO much fun! The instructor, I think her name is Linda, was amazing. She was so knowledgeable, broke steps down so it didn't feel overwhelming, made all of us feel comfortable & really made it an experience to remember. Yes, I did still sweat, lol, but I want to do it again!

Our children got to dance with Linda that night. Since both children enjoyed it, we were thrilled to hear she taught children's classes on Saturday mornings. When I called Linda to arrange for private classes, I was very surprised to hear how reasonable her prices are. Based on my experience with private ballroom dance lessons, I was expecting to pay twice as much as she quoted me. My daughter and I started taking classes together in September and we are enjoying learning something together. We are getting more than what we pay for. Linda is quite obviously not only a professional, but talented and passionate about her art. Her ability to teach both of us at the same time is exceptional, especially given the difference in our attention spans. Both my daughter and I leave every week feeling like we had a good time, and find that we are progressing as well.

The cherry on top- he had it all fixed, and tuned within 20 minutes for a grand total of $5. My son is already begging to go back and explore more of the store! We will be back!!

He has covered so many musical subjects in such a short period of time and has made them fun and exciting to learn. Mr. Keis has covered theory, harmony, grooves, scales, blues, jazz, improvisational techniques, and much much more.

Although I played piano a little when I was a child, I always told myself that "someday I will take…read morelessons again." Well, my "someday" occurred a little over two years ago and I was referred to Bill Keis by a piano tuner who played magnificently. Bill was actually this guy's teacher. (I had previously tried another teacher at a local music store who absolutely frustrated me. That guy was more interested in me listening to how great he played than teaching me. It almost made me quit keyboards altogether.) Fast forward to today. I am now reading music, improvising, playing jazz, blues, a touch of classical, and understanding much more about rhythm, harmony and melody. Bill is an experienced musician who actively plays live gigs, as well as an accomplished and sought-after arranger, composer and recording artist. Chick Correa? Jay Leno Show? Chico? Wow. He is the real deal. I can't recommend him enough as a teacher. I have weekly lessons at his studio, assuming my busy work schedule allows for it. It has proven to be a wonderful outlet for me. In addition, his book, The Complete Guide To Learning Music, is great for beginners, intermediate and advanced musicians as well. He has also authored a bunch of e-books for learning. I was not asked to provide this review, but am doing so in an effort to share my enthusiasm for Bill as a teacher. He is patient and can even work with a stubborn attorney like me!

Since signing up five months ago, I have developed faster than I ever thought possible. Kim is a great instructor, is very patient, and tailors the lessons to what I want to learn.
