I’ve had such a great experience at Allas Music School over the past year. From day one, everyone has been welcoming, supportive, and genuinely passionate about helping students learn.A huge thank you to my piano teacher, Jack. In just one year, I’ve learnt so much more than I ever expected. He’s incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always makes lessons enjoyable while encouraging me to keep improving. I genuinely looked forward to my lessons every week.I highly recommend Allas Music School to anyone considering learning an instrument, whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to build on existing skills. It’s a fantastic environment with wonderful teachers, and I’m so grateful for everything I’ve learnt there.

My saxophone 🎷 teacher is amazing.He is a very patient teacher and passionate one too!Starting music as an adult again he was very patient and good, motivate me every week to do better and learn new techniques and songs. His directions are very clear and easy to follow, I learn better through observation rather than just reading a 📖 book.Thank you! So far, it’s only been 2 months, and continuing.💙💙💙

Had a drum lesson with Connor today and it was honestly great. He’s super easy to communicate with and quickly pinpointed the exact issues I’m working through at the moment, then gave clear and practical ways to improve straight away. His teaching style is very flexible and adapts to where you’re at, which means you get a lot out of the lesson even in a short amount of time. He also shared some really helpful practice tips from his own experience — very much a “teach you how to practice” approach rather than just what to play. I’d highly recommend Conor to anyone interested in drumming, definitely worth checking out!

Alla and her team are simply amazing!Really enjoying the experience of learning finger-style guitar with Daniel. He's a very kind, patient, and engaged teacher. He works hard to ensure my questions are answered and that I understand concepts and exercises.Alla and Rita run a tight ship, but both have have a lovely, caring approach to bringing folks into the world of learning music. They're always smiling and keen to ensure learning is fun and admin requests are handled efficiently.It is easy their passion for music and teaching and they clearly love what they do. Rita's enthusiasm for resolving administrative challenges is deserving of praise. It is amazing that she remembers each student by name. Truly remarkable!It's not easy finding an excellent teacher, feel lucky to have connected with Alla's carefully curated cohort of teachers.Looking forward to the journey 🙂

The studio is very comfortable for students. And Teachers are very knowledgeable and very considerate in setting achievable goals. We could see progress and development in our son’s piano skills.The teacher we had is Gabe and some subtitute teachers such as Samuel, Alex, Adele.Note to the admin who always give reminders and care for the student’s timetable, and making sure we are happy and taken care of.

Although mostly servicing school-age music students, Alla's Music Studio caters for all ages and is a really well-operated music school.Jack McNamara has been giving me trumpet lessons there since mid December 2022 and I could not expect to have a better teacher.Jack is incredibly passionate not just about playing trumpet, but in imparting his knowledge and experience to others.Jack is beyond his years in maturity and ability to connect with his students.For over four months so far, he has kept me engaged and excited in learning this most difficult of instruments.The more I improve, the more he feeds my hunger for greater challenges with clever tips, tricks and things to practice between lessons.

Alla and her team are amazing. My little one and myself have both enjoyed the piano lessons with the teacher, Agnes, not only because she focuses on the accuracy of the notes, but the theories by showing and asking my little one to write the notes. This is something, I know, my little girl will benefit forever. Agnes is a super star, with clear instructions and encouraging tones. Thank you. Also thank you to Rita - the best assistant you can ever find in Australia!

Alla’s music team is very welcoming & professional. This music studio has a very friendly atmosphere & Liam is very patient with my son. He is very skilled and focused on my son’s learning. I see my son growing in confidence in his guitar skills. Liam understands my child’s interests & not only teaches him how to play guitar with good technique, but he also encourages my child to enjoy it! Liam also emails recordings for practice. Highly recommend Liam for guitar learning.

Alla and staff are incredibly nice to deal with and very prompt when I have to reschedule or cancel my daughter’s piano lesson, which has happened a few times during 2022. Another good thing about the studio is that lessons continue throughout the school term breaks, unlike most other extracurricular activities. My daughter has progressed so much in the short time she’s been learning piano at the studio. It’s a testament to the expertise and professionalism of Alla and staff members. Highly recommend sending your kids to this studio!

One of the parents asked me to wright a review about Alla’s Music Sudio, so here it is. I have 3 kids who are all into music. My daughter, the oldest, plays violin both the traditional and Suzuki method. My oldest son plays acoustic piano, keyboard and every other musical instrument which has keys on it, and my little son plays drums. Many years ago when my kids were just starting to take music lessons, finding a good music teacher for each instrument was not easy, and then driving the kids to different places for their music lessons was like having a full-time job. Fortunately, this has changed after we found Alla’s Music Studio. The studio provides musical education for all ages, all instruments and all methods. The teachers are all experienced musicians. I was able to book music lessons for my kids so that they all have it on the same day at the similar time. I leave my kids at the music school and then pick them up after the lesson; I have more free time now to do whatever I need. The school is in the short driving distance from Ormond, where we currently live. I’ve met some parents who are based in Balaclava, Malvern and Caulfield, and a happy to drive the kids which is still only 15 mins drive from where they are. If you are living in one of the below suburbs and looking for a music teacher for private or group lessons, I think that Alla’s music school would be one stop for all your child’s music education. Brighton, Highett, Murrumbeena, Clayton, Cheltenham, Hughesdale and Oakleigh. They also have a website with the pricing info, holiday program, etc..

Alla’s Music Studio was recommended to me by a friend. I was looking for a good and affordable piano teacher in Bentleigh, and when I met Alla I felt confident that my son will receive the music education on the professional level. We have been attending Alla’s Music Studio for about 4 months now and my son’s piano skills have certainly improved. I would recommend this service to any parent who is currently looking for a professional music school around Bentleigh area in Melbourne
