School of Rock Wake Forest provides music lessons for kids and adults of all ages. Our music programs combine one-on-one drum, bass, piano, singing, and guitar lessons with group rehearsals, teaching students how to play together as a band. Together, students perform live music at real venues in front of live audiences. Through our performance-based music education approach, the School of Rock Method, students learn music and gain lifelong skills like collaboration, teamwork, and confidence. We also host a variety of themed music camps and workshops throughout the year, providing students of all ages and experience levels the chance to learn more about a specific music genre, notable band or artist, or musical era.
Dex Horton is a great drum teacher. He has given me a lot of great drills and helps me learn songs that I want to play at open mics. He's very knowledgeable and easy to work with.

Everyone at WF School of Rock are kind, supportive, and fun to be around. Special thanks to Jesse Calhoun and Michelle (owner of SOR) for going out of their way to make sure our adult band (Adult Swim) could perform today at Meet in the Street in downtown Wake Forest. Also, thank you to Kyle! If I missed anyone, thank you... read full comment

My son had a great time being immersed in music all week. He met some new friends and learned a lot from the instructors. The best part was I could see his confidence growing more everyday. Worth every penny!
