THE RSM EXPERIENCE

MUSIC LESSONS ARE JUST THE BEGINNING.

Learning an instrument shouldn't only happen inside a lesson room. At Rob's School of Music, students have opportunities to take what they're learning and actually do something with it.

LEARN
PLAY
PERFORM
CREATE
RECORD
RELEASE

Learn your instrument. Play the music you love. Join a real band. Perform on real stages. Write original music. Record in professional studios. Release your music into the world.

The goal isn't simply to complete another lesson. The goal is to become a musician.

WHY RSM IS DIFFERENT

BUILT BY A WORKING MUSICIAN.

Rob's School of Music was founded by professional musician, educator and content creator Rob Spampinato. For more than 25 years, Rob has built his life around music.

He has toured and performed across the country, recorded professionally, worked with major music brands, been a PRS Guitars endorsed artist since 2007, authored an Amazon #1 bestselling guitar book and built an online community of more than 180,000 YouTube subscribers.

Through the Rob's School of Music platform and podcast, Rob has also interviewed some of the world's most respected musicians about the craft, career and life of making music.

Those accomplishments aren't separate from RSM.
THEY'RE WHY IT EXISTS.

Rob built RSM to give students something traditional music education too often misses: the experience of actually becoming a musician. Everything we do, from private lessons to bands, songwriting, recording and live performances, comes from that philosophy.

MORE THAN AN AFTER-SCHOOL ACTIVITY

YOUR CHILD DOESN'T NEED ANOTHER ACTIVITY.

THEY NEED SOMETHING THEY CAN CALL THEIRS.

For some students, music becomes a career. For others, it becomes the thing they love doing after school. For others, it's where they find confidence, creativity, friends and a place to belong.

We take the music seriously, but we take the student even more seriously. Every student's goals, personality, learning style and musical interests are different. Their lessons should be too.

NO COOKIE-CUTTER CURRICULUM.
NO ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL METHOD.
NO FORCING EVERY STUDENT DOWN THE SAME PATH.

We meet students where they are and help them keep moving forward.

OUR TWO RULES
1 HAVE FUN.
2 KEEP MOVING FORWARD.
THE RSM FACULTY

TAUGHT BY MUSICIANS.

NOT JUST MUSIC TEACHERS.

A great teacher can completely change someone's relationship with music. That's why the RSM faculty is made up of musicians who don't simply understand an instrument. They live music.

Our instructors perform, record, write, create and continue developing their own craft. They're also educators who understand that knowing how to play something and knowing how to teach someone else to play it are two very different skills.

Connect with the student.
Find what inspires them.
Teach them how they learn.
Keep music fun.
Move them forward.
