Remote Vocal Lessons - 45 minutes

Filter


Students taking individual voice lessons at School of Rock NYC can customize their course of study and design lessons to learn healthy techniques, develop their voice, and/or prepare for an audition or performance. Our instructors are professional, working musicians who can offer a broad education in a variety of styles ranging from rock to pop to jazz and musical theater.

Inspired Approach to Vocal Lessons

We believe the best way to learn music is to play music. Our vocal instructors will teach you about proper breath control, scales, harmonies, range, song practice, performance technique and how to get the most out of your voice. You will build your confidence and stretch your abilities. Our proven, rockin' methods and curriculum make learning to sing easy and fun. By learning a spectrum of styles and genres, students are able to develop their own voice and style.

We offer 30 or 45 minute lesson durations for a one-time fee as well as ongoing weekly lessons scheduled at the same time with the same teacher (School of Rock will provide a substitute when a student's regular teacher is away due to touring, gigs, vacation or illness). Weekly lessons scheduled as ongoing require an enrollment plan that is billed monthly. Ongoing lessons can also be combined with a rehearsal program.

Singing with a band: combining private lessons with classes or rehearsals

Students under 18 years old who are interested in applying the skills learned in vocal lessons as part of a band, should check out our Rookies Program, Rock 101 Program or the Performance Program. Adults can look into our Grad School Program.

  • The Rookies Program is appropriate for young students around 6 or 7 years old.

  • The Rock 101 Program is appropriate for beginner vocalists around ages 8-10.

  • The Performance Program is appropriate for intermediate and advanced vocalists between the ages of 8 and 18.

  • The Grad School is appropriate for anyone over the age of 18 whether you are an experienced musician looking to get back on stage or just learning for the first time.

All programs combine weekly private voice lessons with a weekly rehearsal, giving students the opportunity to perform with a band and learn how to work with the band for an integrated sound. Such programs give the student the added benefit of being able to apply their vocal skills and knowledge by singing in a band with their peers!

-Rookies Program

For young students around 6 or 7 years old interested in learning music, but unsure about where to begin, our Rookies Program may be the right fit. This class teaches the basics of music and allows students to try out various instruments.

-Rock 101 Program for vocalists
