School of Rock South Palm Beach — Local services in Boynton Beach

Great mix of private lessons, working with a group of other kids, and performance. Just a great group of people!This is our third year at SOR and I love the exposure to the various music of the times - it really opens their eyes as a young musician.Come January 2021 we realized just how much being a musician was a huge part of who our son is, even at 12 years old, and we needed to make a family decision to extend his “exposure bubble” and allow him to go back to SOR. We realized private lessons at home wasn’t enough for him, he seemed to be losing his identity as a musician and he needed to get back to the face to face interaction of playing with other young musicians in the group sessions. Sending our son back to SOR in-person was the best decision we have made all year! As a family that has been very COVID-conscience, we are VERY impressed and pleased with how SOR South Palm has adapted with the times and the safety measures taken for the students and the staff...EXCELLENT JOB SOUTH PALM SOR! And this goes for finishing the Spring 2020 session too... way to teach that the show must go on!I would also like to say that School of Rock as a global company did a fabulous job during the COVID shutdown Spring of 2020. The online artist sessions with professionals was a great, unique experience and it gave my young musician something to look forward to during the long, lonely days. What a great job at opening the eyes of young musicians in many aspects, and it gave the kids perspective and drive in a time of uncertainty. Thank you to all who made those happen! How our local SOR dealt with the shutdown was amazing too! They were communicative and didn’t skip a beat with figuring out how to continue this great...

My daughter has been a student here for 2 years. Personally, I love music but didn’t really grow up in a rock ‘n’ roll household. We were a little apprehensive about putting our child in a rock and roll type of environment as we are a bi-racial family and we were not sure what to expect. From day one my daughter loved it! These guys are amazing. They’re so patient with the kids. My daughter was only six years old when she started. We quickly realized that music is music and kindness is kindness.

As I leave my daughter’s concert during the middle of a pandemic and some of the most radical racial divides I have seen in my lifetime these guys remind me that there’s still hope for our society. Good music is good music and good energy is good energy. People of all walks and status and race gathered today to watch their children play music. It was a beautiful thing in these decisive times.

I would recommend that anyone send their child to this institution. Special thank you to the team at school of rock. I may have never said it but you’ve added so much...

Lessons are extremely overpriced, especially when you factor in the group classes which they encourage and push, albeit for additional revenue. I have to wonder if a performance based, cover song structure proves any long term value as a musician and guitarist. These days kids can pick this stuff up solo on YouTube or use Guitar Pro software with tabs for free. I think the curriculum leaves much to be desired. Far too much emphasis on playing dated covers. This is a good place for extreme beginners but those looking to really learn the ins and outs of music theory, application, improvisation and composition should look elsewhere. Also the whole rock music genre is very limited. I would prefer more diversity in music to better reflect what a serious musician would learn and help a student open up to more advanced forms beyond 3 chords and...
