From the instructors to the facility and the management/ownership, this School of Rock is truly invested in both you and your child's musical education.

Not beginner friendly. My experience here was not good. If it weren't for Charlotte, I would have…read moregiven this place 1 star. I would say this place is more for those with experience since you are pressured to perform. I am sure all the 5 star reviewers have had lessons before coming here. I started coming here in early October and left 3 weeks later. When I came, we had to perform within 2 months. We were all expected to know 4 songs within 3 lessons (6 hours, since each lesson lasts 2 hours). I can't learn how to have long conversations in a different language in this small amount of time. I did not care for Todd's teaching methods. I could not bear to see how he was talking to another student who I will call S for privacy reasons. I felt pretty bad for S. Like, I do agree that his performance was average, but you need more time to learn than just 2 months! He was also making things seem like a serious problem, which can easily crush dreams. I felt like I was auditioning for AGT or something. The ear buds they give you did not look like they get cleaned at all (as another reviewer said), which disgusted me, so I decided to use their huge headphones instead. They have a variety of colors and designs, but they only have one size. They do not look like they are for kids. I saw this little 4-year-old girl wearing those headphones with the unicorn pattern, and the ear protection part was below her ears, which is dangerous. The one positive thing was my private lessons with Charlotte. I enjoyed them more than being with the group and Todd. I would speak highly of her with my parents. She was very understanding of my feelings. I'm sad I cannot come for lessons with her, but I am also now taking voice lessons at a different place.

His help was incredibly valuable and made the experience both enjoyable and stress-free. Gabriel was patient and knowledgeable, introducing me to several options and allowing me to hear and understand the subtle differences in each guitar.

Phoenix Feather is the best choice I could have made musically for my 2 kids…read more Originally when my oldest was 6, I started her in private piano lessons. It was so boring for her. My piano repair man recommended Phoenix Feather and while it was farther than I was currently driving, I tried it because the school has been open for so many years. The group lesson is amazing! Both of my kids were so much more engaged in a group lesson, they see other kids' triumphs and struggles and they want to keep up with course. Ms. K is really energetic and engaging with the kids. It is a rigorous class but Ms. K has SO MANY TOOLS on her website to help your student thru any difficulty. The parent does not need to be a piano player for your child to succeed in this class. I'm forever grateful for this program.

K for 4.5 years (so close to finishing the program, but alas, they decided to pursue other areas of music a couple of years ago). We loved this program so much and Mz. K's incrediby effective teaching style! We knew from the get-go that our children would likely not become classical pianists, but we wanted to instill in them an appreciation of music and an understanding of how to read music. The group keyboarding lessons are perfect for that, and they are also a great foundation for more serious students as well. Mz. K has been teaching for over 30 years and has built a time-tested program that works! Mz. K might be considered a strict teacher, but we appreciated her firm guidance which showed how much she cares about her students and their learning.

He is very kind and patient, and our son always looks forward to his piano classes. He helped our son complete two RCM levels, and we're so grateful for his guidance. Mr. Felix listens to the kids, encourages them to be creative, and teaches them based on their interests. At the same time, he gives them a gentle push when needed to keep them motivated and on track with their RCM goals. He is also great at keeping parents updated, with clear communication, planning, and instructions, so we always know what to expect. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better piano teacher for our son. Also, the front desk staff are amazing! They are always friendly, helpful, and welcoming. We highly recommend We Play Music to anyone looking for a great music school.

My son absolutely looks up to him as the "GOAT" and has started taking his drumming so much more seriously because of his mentorship. What makes Mr. Joseph truly stand out is how exceptionally well he prepares students for the big stages. Whether it's practicing for individual recitals or keeping up with the intense precision needed for drumline, his teaching style is spot-on. He knows exactly how to motivate kids, build their confidence, and teach excellent technique. We are so grateful for his dedication over the years!
