A misconception is that every student that auditions already is an expert at their instrument. On the contrary, Rockit staff recognizes potential and passion and develops that potential. However, sometimes a student wants to take lessons before they jump into the band experience. Our instructors often work with students before they audition for Rockit Academy, and sometimes current students choose to take additional lessons to learn new instruments.
We offer private instruction in the following instruments: drums, guitar, bass guitar, keyboards, vocals, saxophone. If you are interested in another instrument, please ask, because many of our instructors play a multitude of instruments.
A monthly fee of $250 entitles each student 46 one-hour weekly lessons per year for one instrument. A complimentary student evaluation is offered upon request. Contact us directly at program@rockitacademy.org to get more information and schedule your lessons.

The Rockit Live Foundation, a 501(c)(3), believes that every young artist should have the opportunity to experience the impact that music can have, despite financial restrictions.
We offer scholarships for students studying instruments with our instructors without being a part of our auditioned-based Rockit Academy.
