Play that funky music
From our studio at the border of Kanata/Stittsville, we help our students succeed in their chosen instrument and in life. We look beyond their weekly music lessons, and develop lasting relationships with our students. We recommend performance opportunities outside the school. We prep them for auditions and concerts, musical theatre, coffee houses, talent shows and more.
We will rock you
At U-Rock we truly care about your kid's success.
That's because we, the owners, are in the classroom every day, all day.
