Need Dana Point Music Lessons? Rock Out At Los Rios Rock School

Most kids and teens are excited about learning to play an instrument. That is until they spend weeks and weeks practicing scales and songs like “Mary Had A Little Lamb.” We believe that if you truly want to inspire children and foster a lifelong love of music, the lessons need to have a bit more pizzazz. At Los Rios Rock School, students searching for Dana Point music lessons will enjoy exciting lessons and quite a bit more.

Our Lessons

At Los Rios Rock School our music lessons for Dana Point kids and teens are performance-based. This means that we teach students how to play an instrument using music and songs they truly love. Within just a few lessons, your child will be able to play a favorite song on whatever instrument they wish to learn. They quickly progress from beginner level to the point where they are competent enough and confident enough to perform on stage.

Our instructors can teach students how to play virtually any instrument including drums, electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic guitar, piano or keywords, ukulele, saxophone, clarinet and the list goes on. We also offer vocal instruction as well as teaching music theory and songwriting. We also can teach using any genre of music including rock, pop, classical, country, blues, rockabilly, jazz and more.

When you search for Dana Point music lessons, you will find that many music schools provide only 30 or 45 minutes of instruction each week. At Los Rios Rock School, we provide each student with a private, 60-minute lesson every week. During this lesson, a student may work on one specific instrument or perhaps combine a lesson with more than one instrument. For instance, perhaps a teen or child wishes to learn to play both piano and drums. We can spend 30 minutes on piano and the rest with a drum lesson. You could also split between guitar and voice lessons or perhaps saxophone and bass guitar.

Monthly Tuition & Live Rock Shows

Dana Point music lessons

Your tuition includes much more than a weekly 60-minute lesson. The tuition also includes participation in our live program. In this program, students are formed into ability-based groups, create their own set lists and then perform live at venues such as the Coach House, the House of Blues and Stillwater. We also host a variety of shows on our private stage, The Lobby. The lessons, the weekly group rehearsals and the live performances are all included in the monthly tuition!

Our live shows occur approximately six to 12 times per year. We have shows that include a huge variety of musical styles as well as themed shows and our advanced students are invited to audition for our Classic Album Series concerts. These concerts feature a world-renowned album performed in its entirety, such as “Abbey Road” or perhaps Queen’s “A Day at the Races.”

Special Extras

If you have a budding songwriting in your home, we offer both songwriting classes as well as production classes. Our facility includes two professional recording studios and all of our instructors are in working bands and have production and live performance experience.

In addition, to being able to use our state-of-the-art recording studios, our facility also is stocked with the best new and vintage gear in the business. The students at Los Rios Rock School can rock out and practice using the same drum sets, guitars, amps and other equipment that their icons use.

For advanced music students, we also offer an AP Music Theory class, which is led by an instructor with a Ph.D. in Music Composition. During this class, students will learn all they need to know in order to pass the comprehensive AP Music Theory exam.

At Los Rios Rock School, our goal is provide much more than basic Dana Point music lessons. We strive to provide a creative, accepting environment where students not only develop strong musical skills, but also build friendships with fellow students. Many students arrive early for lessons and stay late in order to hang out with the friends they have made here at the rock school.
