THE JOURNEY TO THE STAGE
At FS Music, our music programs for kids and teens are designed to inspire and help students grow by getting them on stage and performing. The goal is to build strong musical proficiency while fostering confidence and creativity. All of our programs are designed to guide students toward our Rock Band Program, where they will truly refine their musical skills.
Students in our Rock Band Program typically have some previous music experience, either through our Group Band Program or other basic music training. These musicians receive a custom development plan from their instructors, which includes both private lessons and group band rehearsals. In these sessions, students not only learn key musical concepts but also explore different instruments to discover which one they want to pursue in their musical journey.
At FS Music, we focus on giving students the skills and experience they need to thrive in a performance setting, ensuring they have a well-rounded education that prepares them for the stage.
