In the beginning of my music life, I was learning guitar at home by myself. Now, I’m continuing to develop my music skills at The Rock Teen Center. The Rock has been a great practice area for me as well as helped me recruit musicians in my age range and mindset. Court is a great guitar instructor and rehearsal director for me. He and everyone else who’s helped me have a positive attitude and encourage me to expanding my music. The Rock is a great place for me at the transition age and is helping me grow into my musical goals, in a safe, positive environment.
