Bass
Be the back-bone of the group! Bass player often don’t shine in the spotlight. They’re usually supporting the other instruments. But a good Bass player is also a leader. Experienced musicians understand that the Bassist coolly, and unassumingly steers the ship and gives any performance a unique, subtle identity.
Bass Lessons
piano
Piano is one of the most popular instruments to learn for a reason. It has a timeless, majestic sound and nearly unlimited applications. Within piano there is the potential for a life long passion, a rewarding pastime, or a stepping stone to a broader musical experience. Piano is a perfect choice for beginners and those more experienced alike!
Drums
Set The Tempo! The Drummer does more then just keep the beat. They provide the energy. Even a beginning drummer can hop into a jam session and have a blast, but there is a whole world of nuance to explore and ever improve upon your skills. We can help you if you want to learn your first beat or tackle odd time signatures and advanced techniques.
Voice
Become the star of the show! Your voice is a muscle and we can help you train it to be strong and beautiful. Proper instruction is important for anyone learning to sing to ensure safety and consistency. Learning to sing is about more than just the music. For many, its an invaluable exorcises in confidence, self-presentation, and creativity.
Ukulele
Ukulele is a popular choice for kids and casual musicians because its small and easy to get started with. There are many principles that a ukulele player learns that carry on to other instruments which makes it a great stepping stone. But don’t be fooled there’s plenty depth to this instrument for those who’d like to explore it further.
Filmed & Recorded at Beach Cities Rock Club Music School in San Clemente!
Safe & Sanitized Music Lessons
During the Pandemic the Rock Club switched gears and went digital! Within 2 weeks we had the entire school operating remotely using the power of Google Classroom and Zoom. During this time, our team learned allot about teaching remotely. It was our experience that most children under 11 lack the development capacity to successfully receive instruction online. Since then we have implemented an integrated approach so when schedules become hectic, students can switch to online lessons for a few weeks. This is especially helpful for those busy collage bund athletes whom use music lessons for creative recreation! Beach Cities Rock Club offers in-person socially distanced music lessons in a sanitized environment in addition to online lessons with remote zoom music learning. Whatever your preference, we’re here to help you stay safe and rock out!!

The journey of our
music students
Students taking private lessons can expect to learn how to properly and safely play their instrument, how to read various types of notated music, how to improvise and compose music, and how to perform with other musicians in live settings.
01
Foundations
Setting up solid music knowledge and practice foundations is critical to the long term success and developing your musical abilities. Our teachers help set the right practice routines and instrument fundamentals for students to grow their talents.
02
creativity
At the core of all music is creativity. Beach Cities Rock Club music teaching philosophy is coupled with that. We believe it’s essential to not just learn songs, but to also foster creativity as you progress with your instrument. We want students to write their own music!
03
perform
Stage fright? Yeah right! Students learn and become comfortable performing in front of teachers, one another, and eventually groups at our open mic nights. It’s a fun and safe environment to practice your performance skills as you get ready to play live shows!

Record
As your creative and songwriting ability expands students may be interested in learning what it’s like to record music. Recording is a critical part of any career. Power Plant Records recording studio provides students this experience and a recording of your tune.

video star
MTV debuted just after midnight on August 1, 1981 and changed everything. Music would never be the same with the launch of the music video into the pop culture and music scene.
Music continues to involve bringing new visual entertainment elements and creativity in this arena is critical for modern artists. Beach Cities Rock Club exposes students to video production.

“Amazing learning environment! Biff and Ryan are great teaches and have knowledge on a wide variety of topics! They have also adapted to the current climate and offer lessons online. Great way to spend the time stuck at home.”
- Weston S.
“My daughter is taking ukulele lessons here and absolutely loves it! She has been taking lessons for about three months now and is already showing huge improvement. Mr. Biff tailors his lessons according to how much progress she makes each week, explains lessons in a way that she can comprehend, and teachers her songs that are popular so she stays interested. This morning I heard her play and was so impressed at her strumming technique and timing that I thought it was her dad playing the song.”
- Ursula L. / San Clemente, CA
“Very, very passionate owner (who also is the guitar teacher!) who truly cares about teaching kids and not only having them learn the music they are interested in but also making sure they learn the basics and proper techniques of playing and some music theory as well. Which I think is a VERY good balance to have and very important.”
- Jason P.
