Support a ROOTS Family This October

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we’ve created a special ROOTS Pink Love Shirt to help our community come together and give back to one of our own.

Pink Love: Giving Back Through Community

This October, we’re focusing our support right here at home — within the ROOTS community. Families can nominate a ROOTS family currently battling cancer or even nominate themselves.

One family will be randomly selected to receive 100% of the proceeds from every pink shirt sold. This project reminds us that even small acts of love can create big change.

How You Can Help

Order your Pink Love Shirt before October 26 to take part in this season of giving. Each shirt sold will directly support a ROOTS family walking through a cancer battle. Every purchase becomes a symbol of hope and community strength.

Want to help decide who receives this year’s support? Simply fill out the ROOTS Family Cancer Nomination Form on who you’d like to bless. Together, we can lift up a family in need and show what love looks like in action.

Why It Matters

At ROOTS, we believe in more than music, dance, and education. We believe in community — showing up for one another and spreading hope in every season.

This October, let’s wear pink, give generously, and stand united in support of our ROOTS families.

It was an unforgettable evening of music, laughter, and some killer dance moves at this year’s Father/Daughter Hip Hop Night! Every year, this tradition at ROOTS brings together dads and daughters for a night that’s equal parts high-energy fun and heartfelt connection.

Every year, our company dancers and their dads show up in their best street gear, ready to hit the floor. From learning fresh hip hop moves to cheering each other on, the energy was electric. The night was filled with laughter, encouragement, and the kind of moments that remind us why dance matters.

Why Family Matters at ROOTS

At ROOTS, we believe dance is more than just steps and choreography. It’s about building confidence, creating memories, and strengthening relationships. Nights like these showcase what makes our community so special: families coming together to laugh, learn, and celebrate one another.

Dance has the power to connect across generations, and watching fathers and daughters share that connection on the dance floor was a reminder of why we do what we do. It’s not just about teaching technique—it’s about nurturing belonging, growth, and joy for every member of the ROOTS family.

Thinking about guitar lessons at home for your child or yourself? Whether you’re in Franklin, Brentwood, or one of Nashville’s surrounding neighborhoods, at-home guitar instruction is becoming a popular (and practical) choice for busy families and working adults.

If you’re wondering how it all works, here’s exactly what to expect when starting guitar lessons at your home with ROOTS.

1. A Teacher Who Comes to You

No more sitting in traffic, rushing through dinner, or scrambling to find parking. With music lessons at home, a professional guitar teacher arrives at your doorstep—right on schedule.

ROOTS instructors are experienced, background-checked musicians who know how to make learning fun and accessible for all ages.

2. A Lesson Plan That Matches Your Goals

Whether you’re learning chords for the first time or preparing to join a band, our curriculum meets you where you are. Lessons are customized for:

• Total beginners

• Intermediate students

• Songwriters and performers

• Acoustic or electric guitar

We’ll match you with a teacher who fits your style, skill level, and musical goals.

3. What You Need to Get Started

The basics include:

• A well-tuned guitar (acoustic or electric)

• A small amp (if electric)

• A chair without armrests

• A quiet, well-lit room

• A notebook or lesson binder

Need help selecting gear? We can recommend student-friendly guitars and accessories based on age and experience.

4. What a Typical Lesson Looks Like

Guitar lessons at home usually last 30, 45, or 60 minutes. A typical session includes:

• Warm-up or review

• Technique and drills (chords, strumming, scales)

• Song practice

• Light theory (as needed)

• Q&A and assignment for the week

Our teachers keep it interactive, positive, and age-appropriate—whether you’re 8 or 48.

5. How Parents Can Support Practice

For younger students, parents can help by:

• Creating a consistent time and space for practice

• Celebrating progress (even small wins)

• Keeping the guitar in an easy-to-access spot

• Encouraging short, frequent practice sessions

No musical experience required—we’ll guide you!
