What is Little Wing Program?
We teach preschoolers in our Little Wing Program the creativity, confidence, and knowledge they need to grow into life-long lovers and practitioners of music. Music is the gateway to childrens’ growth, whether it’s in the form of great friendships from shared musical experiences or the joy of hearing an inspirational song for the first time. Our Little Wing students at Farmingdale enjoy a unique variety of music-minded games based on some of the most popular music in rock and roll history. Through great music and a foundation of fun, our students refine their motor skills, coordination, pre-literacy, and group cooperation in a safe and inclusive environment.

Young rockers in Farmingdale’s Little Wing Program can expect:

Exploration of hand percussion and other tools to spark their imagination
Unique and engaging music games
Teamwork, cooperation, and group music activities
Fundamental skills for music and life
Fun and practical learning combined perfectly tailored to growing minds!
What is Rookies Program?

School of Rock Farmingdale’s Rookies Program offers a gateway to understanding music for first and second graders. Using proprietary set-ups for guitar, bass, drums and keyboard, as well as other tools, we introduce our Rookies to music fundamentals in a fun way. The skills and passion for music that our Rookies learn prepares them for Rock 101 and a lifelong love of music.

With exercises, tools and games customized to their age group, our Farmingdale Rookies learn the concepts of
music theory, rhythm, pitch, form and dynamics as they play alongside their friends. We encourage our students to explore various instruments and play styles so they begin to understand how individual contributions form a band; even the best solo keyboard players or vocalists need to understand how an
ensemble works.

All students in Farmingdale’s Rookies Program can expect:

Weekly group lessons using guitar, bass, keyboard and drums
Exposure to essential fundamentals like music theory, pitch and rhythm
A focus on teamwork and collaboration
An understanding of what it means to play solo and in a group
Fun combined with practical learning!
What is Performance Programs?

At School of Rock Farmingdale, our Performance Program puts our students front-and-center on a real stage for real performances. Students get to show off their killer music skills while learning serious teamwork as they and their bandmates refine their abilities through some of rock and roll’s greatest hits. Farmingdale students will blow your mind with advanced performances chock-full of hits by famous artists such as Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Frank Zappa, Queen, and many, many more! For our students, real performances breed real skill, and real fun.

All students in Farmingdale’s Performance Program can expect:

Weekly private music lessons on guitar, bass, keyboard, drums, and/or vocals
Weekly band rehearsal to get students prepared for real shows
The experience of performing on stage with their band at real venues
Key learning in fundamental areas such as stage performance, harmonies, musicianship, and more
