Rock Dojo
Share
The Rock Dojo is a successful approach to learning guitar, and a rock ‘n’ roll approach to success. At the Rock Dojo, we inspire kids to play, perform, and compose rock music on the guitar. Based on a rewarding belt system, students begin at the white belt level and progress through five stages of achievement. At each stage of their musical education, students master the skills necessary to play, perform, and compose with confidence.
Huge shout out to Finn who performed the Ampstrong Theme in front of his whole school! We love the courage and hard work he put into this project.
