★★★★★Natalie JacobsonHighly recommend for child of any age (even an infant before they can even sit up!) Mr. Michael was an enrichment class we had at the daycare where I worked and I knew when I had my own kids I was going to go to his classes (15 years later here we are!) The children learn about different music instruments, gross motor skills and social emotional development all while in class. Mr Michael is engaging, knows each child by name, and is very interactive during class. You will not regret going to one of his classes!
★★★★★Stephanie GorinOur daughter has been going to Mr. Michael’s class since she was an infant and is now a toddler. She absolutely loves it, and parents can appreciate that Mr. Michael is a talented musician who is very in tune with engaging young kids.
★★★★★Robin SchafferFrom the very first day my 11-month-old grandson attended, he has loved Michael’s classes. They’re filled with songs, musical instruments, and so much energy for all the kids. My grandson lights up with excitement the moment we walk in!
★★★★★Nikita PatelIt was such a nice experience. Michael made everyone feel so welcome, remembered names to include the kids, and with big expressions so they each feel seen. You can tell his heart is in this with how much enjoyment he brings to class
★★★★★Tina KennyI’m writing this 5 star review through the lens of a mom of (almost) 1 year old twins, a Kindie musician, and a licensed K-12 music educator, with over 20 years of experience teaching. Rockness Music is such a wonderful program, and you should absolutely sign your kids up. Mr. Michael brings such fun to each and every one of his classes. He’s engaging, treats the kids with love and respect at every moment, and brings educational content that the kids really love. They learn about new instruments, move their bodies with a weekly dance party, and get to use their imaginations throughout. He also can pivot at a moment’s notice to reflect the interest of the kids; one of the students was excited about a plane flying overhead today in class, and Mr. Michael improvised a song about airplanes right on the spot, including actions for the kids to do and everything. You can tell how passionate he is about what he does. If you’re thinking about signing your kids up, do it. They will have the best time, and they will grow up loving music.
