Private Lessons
All Things Rock specializes in one-on-one lessons for guitar and electric guitar, bass guitar, piano and keyboard, drums and drum set, and voice. Lessons can be taken at our studio, in your home, and in your home or office via the internet. Our teachers are all formed by years of professional experience as well as a lifetime of private study. In short, our teachers are true music education professionals and playing professionals, not just kids in bands. Trust us when we say there is a big difference. Our roster of teachers teaches both our private lessons and our group classes.

theory. This is for people who have been in bands before. Equipment

Jam Sessions
Jam sessions are our way of getting ATR's musician's together. Playing
alone in your bedroom is a totally different experience than
collaborating with other people. Playing in time, improvising, learning
new songs and new licks are just a few of the ways a jam session will
make everyone involved improve musically. On top of that, it's fun!
Sessions are free for ATR clients, $25 for everyone else. Teachers and
equipment provided to facilitate jamming. Ages 8-14.
