"We have been with Rob’s School of Music since the doors opened. My son began taking guitar lessons, he wanted to be a rock star like his teacher. After about a year Rob, my son and I realized that his inner rock star was more of an acoustic song writer! We began piano lessons and have not stopped since that day. My son has learned more than just notes and songs. He sees the music. He feels the music. [...] Being a part of Rob’s School of Music truly makes you part of a family. A family of teachers, students and an owner that share their love for music with each of their students! "

How does Rob's School of Music keep students engaged and loving their lessons every week?
Awesome Events and Recitals
Our events are EPIC! All students are invited to perform in many local pop-up performances. We also do annual recitals unlike any music school around. We make these events fun and entertaining for the students and the entire family with professional lighting and sound, concessions, and recordings. Our Rock Band students perform at REAL venues every 6-8 weeks.
Customized Learning System
Nothing about Rob’s School of Music is cookie-cutter. Every student receives a completely customized curriculum, so they are taught how THEY learn. Once enrolled, every student receives a questionnaire so we can learn about their musical goals and “why” they want to learn how to play music.
It’s More Than Music
As a music school, our first goal is to teach our students how to play music, but at Robs School Of Music, it goes much deeper than that. In a perfect world, 20 years from now, all of our students would still be rocking, but even if they’re not, they will still possess the self-discipline and confidence instilled in every lesson.
Learn from True Musical Practitioners
A good teacher changes everything. Every music coach at Robs School Of Music is an active touring and recording professional musician. But it doesn’t stop there. We are a team of educators who put all of our student's needs front and center in every lesson. Our team is trained to adapt their teaching style on the fly to ensure we connect with our students every minute they’re with us.
We recommend DJ lesson students start no younger than 8 years old, but there are always exceptions. Schedule a free consultation to see what is best for you.
We recommend that any student learning how to DJ has their own gear, but it is not necessary in the beginning. We sell basic beginner DJ rigs at the school.
We make learning how to DJ fun. Each lesson includes exercises to practice over the course of the week with specific goals that gamify the experience.
All of our programs are custom-tailored to the student's goals and learning style. As a primer, every DJ student will learn a combination of beat matching, how to use Rekord Box software, how to apply FX, how to pick a set, setting up and breaking down their DJ equipment and much more.
