However, it’s always a good idea to take a few minutes a day (between 15 and 30 minutes) with your instrument. Immersion Rock Montréal can lend out instruments on an occasional basis (practice pads for drums), to enable students to rehearse at home.

What’s more, Immersion Rock Montréal’s programs are aimed at the overall development of the individual. The objectives are therefore not limited to musical skills.
