ABOUT ROCK101 CAMP
Want to play in a band on stage? Our Rock 101 music camp is designed for beginners 8-12 years old. Some experience is encouraged though not needed! Students will explore their instruments through musical games and activities. Our nurturing environment makes this the perfect camp for budding musicians. Students will work on songs Monday through Friday and the camp will culminate in a concert at the end of the week for family and friends.
For kids ages 8-12, music education is an exciting journey that lets them dive deeper into rhythms, melodies, and the thrill of creating something uniquely their own. At this stage, they’re ready to take on bigger challenges, learning to play real songs on instruments like guitars, keyboards, drums, and more. Whether they’re rocking out on an electric guitar or mastering beats on the drums, kids get to explore music in a way that feels rewarding and fun. Learning music at this age helps sharpen focus and boosts memory, especially as they work on remembering notes, chords, and sequences. Playing in groups teaches teamwork and listening skills, as everyone learns to stay in sync and support each other. It also fosters creativity, giving students the chance to experiment with different sounds and even start writing their own songs. Beyond the skills, music gives these young teens a powerful outlet for self-expression. Performing in front of friends and family builds confidence, helping kids feel proud of their progress. Music education not only teaches them new skills but also gives them the thrill of playing, experimenting, and discovering their own voice in a fun and inspiring environment.
