There is something special about Portland and music. Some of the best indie bands and songwriters from the 90s and 2000s call Portland home. This list includes The Decemberists, The Dandy Warhols, Everclear, Modest Mouse, and Pink Martini. Who will be the next generation of musicians that will inspire Portland and beyond? It could be your kids.
Our lessons are unique in our holistic approach to understanding music. With lessons that help students develop a mastery of guitar, kids learn how to read, write, and play music. They will even be able to compose their own songs. For real!

ROCK DOJO’s “GUITAR LESSONS FOR KIDS” MISSION
We believe every child has the spark of greatness in them. That’s why we developed an achievement-based musical curriculum designed to inspire and empower kids to do great things in music and in life. Each child leaves with more than guitar skills and music skills, they accomplish skills that nurture their esteem for the rest of their life.
