I was perfectly happy to pay for the two lessons left on the payment schedule. But Further required 30 days notice prior to the next payment and, therefore, charged me for 4 more lessons. Even though I contacted Further by phone and in writing over two weeks, no one got back to me to discuss the matter until I threatened legal action. Outrageous!

My family was very happy with the service we received here last week. Our original intent was to…read morefind a rental violin for Kid2, as well as see what they might have in stock for kid1. Upon entry we were greeted by Omar, the store manager. He immediately sized my daughter, and went to the stock room to find a few that were her size. For a full school year rental of a junior violin, the cost was $90 + $20 service fee (tuning cleaning) + $5 rosin, a total of $115 before tax for 9 months rental ( End Sept to End Oct). Additionally, there is a grace period of 10 days after the final June 20 contract date that you can return the instrument without penalty. That takes a little bit of stress off our backs to rush to the store for the return. Given that Kid2 had never played the violin, but now needed one for school, I appreciated Omar's knowledge and feedback on things we needed, and unnecessary, there was never any pressure or upsell here. Meanwhile, another staff member, Ricky, was patient with Hubs and Kid1 as they were perusing the guitar section. While the store had a nice variety of full size acoutic & electric guitars, they only had 1 type of junior-size guitar ($79 in 2 colors, red & blue). Both Omar & Ricky were very patient with all my questions, and even allowed me to see what they had in stock when I asked about accordians (which, FYI, they generally do not carry new, and they only have old accordians in stock to sell AS-IS). We were happy with the service we received at this store. Highly recommend them if you're in need of a rental instrument, especially for kids.

They could order it for me but it won't arrive to the day I need it. The associate explained to be the difference between the two. He suggested to me to ask my brother if what they have can be an acceptable replacement. He mentioned what's available in their store and the price for the piece. It was a direct to the point service. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. The store has a good old fashioned appeal. I wish I could browse what's in their store and stay longer for today. I am seeing myself coming here again. Good location. Metered parking in front of the store.

She let our daughter take music lessons in her music studio while we were in the process of getting a piano.

The programs assist all the students in exploring and honing their musical abilities --and beyond that, young musicians are able to form meaningful alliances with their bandmates and their instructors. Kids have shared with me that they had been anxious to perform until they were supported and encouraged by their teachers. At School of Rock, these students built the confidence to take the leap to performance!! It is so exciting to see the growth and camaraderie at the seasonal shows! I see it in all the kids!! School of Rock is inclusive and supportive-- my child feels at home there.

All of the instructors we have had have each been so great with the children, the parents and care givers alike. It is a time where we as adults get to be silly with our children and have loads of fun and laughs. My daughter has learned so much from the program not only musically, but socially as well. The children are free to interact with one another, as well as with the other adults in the group. They also freely participate in the music. It is ao cool to see how they participate in the exrscises. It has also helped her develop her speech and vocabulary. What a wonderful program! I definitely recommend these classes to anyone.
