KMS Group Classes

The Kailua Music School band classes are designed to gather and build like minded, like aged, similarly skilled and similarly driven students into a performing, recording rock/pop/alternative/reggae/ska/metal band. Similarly, our group classes are structured to prepare students for high quality cohesive and dynamic band and group performance. We provide the training, the mentorship and opportunities for the kids and adults. Sounds like a laundry list of things that need to line up for a music group to work, right? It is. The first thing to know when you are coming into the KMS band program, is to know that no band, especially kids, will sound like the Beatles or 21 Pilots overnight. It takes months and months of training, group work, dedicated individual home practice, patience and commitment to become a strong-sounding contributor to a music group. It is also one of the most rewarding things for a student to be a part of.

Mini Confidence Rocks Class

Mini Confidence Rocks Class introduces young kids to a world of music! This class for kids 4-6 years old includes a mix of storytime, musical instruments, and group play.

Kailua Music School is a blast for growing musicians and introduces kids to core musical concepts. It’s the perfect class for preschoolers and early elementary students who want to get started with music!

Kids will learn about core musical concepts, like loud and soft, fast and slow, and high and low notes. Some of these concepts will be introduced through story time.

We will also incorporate movement-based activities. This allows students to express themselves through music and dance. Students are introduced to instruments like the ukulele, drum kit, microphones and keyboard. At the same time, they learn fundamental skills that prepare them for music lessons.

To learn more about group courses and group learning goals with Kailua Music School, please visit our What to Expect from Band Class page.

Confidence Rocks music classes for kids also tap into a number of key early childhood skills. Through Kailua Music School, young students can build skills like counting, pattern recognition, hand-eye coordination, social skills, and auditory awareness. Plus, kids can have fun, make friends, and unlock their inner musician!
