2013 Winter Schedule

Mozingo Rock University
MRU PosterAll students who enroll are placed in one of four skill categories: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and Advanced Plus. Skill level for new students is determined by a student skill evaluation with the MRU director prior to beginning of session. For returning students, skill level is determined by the student’s performance at the end of most recent session.

At the end of the 9-week session, student bands will perform an end of session concert at a local venue. Students will be asked to help promote the show to family, friends, and the general public. Various opportunities for performances before, after, and throughout the 9-week sessions will occur. Bands will be asked (at the director’s discretion) to perform. These will generally be community and PR performances that help promote the MRU program.

Cost: $299 (discounts are available if signing up for more than one band and/or have previously participated in MRU sessions or summer camps) for 9 weeks of instruction & Performance (price includes book “Guitar Tab White Pages Vol. 2” & Mozingo Rock University T-Shirt).

  • Student skill level
  • Schedule availability of the student
  • Student age
  • Student style preferences

All of these are taken into consideration when placing a student in a band that rehearses at one of the above times. Students are placed in bands based on results of evaluation as well as schedule availability and constraints. If students have requests to be placed with other specific students, we will do our absolute best to accommodate, but cannot guarantee specific placements due to varying schedule demands of parents, students, and the Mozingo Music Studio.

That’s it! Once your time is scheduled, it will remain yours until you decide to change it.
