-Stevie Wonder
U-Rock Music School is a happy & safe place where your stars will THRIVE & SHINE.
Inclusivity
We celebrate diversity and create a welcoming space where music becomes a bridge for understanding and belonging, ensuring everyone feels seen, valued, and respected.
Empowered Creativity
We inspire students to explore their unique voices, building confidence and self-expression through music.
Excellence
We are dedicated to providing personalized, high-quality instruction that nurtures growth and artistry.
Community Connection
Our studio is a hub for building meaningful relationships, fostering collaboration and support among students and families.
Lifelong Music
We view music as a lifelong journey, equipping students with skills and passion that last far beyond the studio.
Respect and Care
We honor the time and effort of our students, families, and staff by cultivating a safe, respectful, and supportive environment.
Joyful Discovery
Music is a source of joy and exploration. We guide students to discover not just how to play, but how to feel inspired by music.
Holistic Growth
We teach to the whole person, nurturing emotional expression, discipline, and confidence alongside musical technique.
Paying it Forward
We believe in the value of community. Every year we participate in charity and fundraising events. This gives us, and by extension, our students, a chance to learn how we can help others.
Why We're Different
We believe music lessons teach much more than how to play or sing. They inspire, spark the imagination and build confidence and discipline.
Music lessons at U-Rock, in the Fairwinds community, bordering Stittsville and Kanata, teach young people to take risks, conquer fear, and develop their potential.
Our big focus is performance opportunities for local kids and teens.
Tailored Lessons
Our students receive music lessons tailored to their needs. We set them up to succeed in their chosen instruments and in life. We build relationships with students and families beyond their music lessons. We seek out performance opportunities for all of our rock stars, promoting them and coaching them for auditions, school plays and more. Whether your child or teen is interested in private music lessons or group lessons we have it all right here, under one roof.
A Family Business
The biggest difference at U-Rock is the owners are the teachers – this makes us very unique compared to other music schools.
For almost 30 years we’ve been taking great pride in making sure your rock stars are happy with their lessons and get the very best music education while also having fun.
We provide pop/rock vocal lessons, guitar lessons, bass lessons, drum lessons, keyboard/piano and ukulele lessons.
Plus we coach several youth and teen bands. We work from our home-based studio on the border of Kanata and Stittsville.
We Create Fun
We’ve taught and mentored thousands of young rock stars in Kanata, Stittsville and the surrounding areas, Carp, Dunrobin, Barrhaven, Almonte and Carleton Place since our school first opened in 1997.
Our five-star rating from students and families makes us the best choice for music education combined with fun.
Many of our students stay with us for five years or more. We frequently teach multiple sibling families. We offer affordable pricing and various payment plans, including additional discounts for families with 3+ children.
Award-Winning School
We are very proud to be the Top Choice Music School in Ottawa. We’ve placed 1st for five consecutive years from 2021-2025, and among the top three since 2015.
We are thrilled that a small school like ours can make such a positive impact on our students and our community.
Thank you for allowing us to share our joy of music with so many families in Stittsville, Kanata and beyond.
