My son has been attending iRock Music School for a year and always enjoys his lessons. The teachers are talented and genuinely care about inspiring the kids to love music. The facilities are great, and the supportive environment has really helped my son grow in his musical skills.

My siblings attend iRock and they absolutely love it! I’ve attended a few of their holiday program concerts and it’s been amazing to see what they can achieve in such a short period of time. You can see the enjoyment that all the kids get out of getting up and showcasing what they’ve learnt. Keep up the awesome work iRock :)

Update: 6mths on and still loving everything about iROCK. Rocco has been amazing inspiring my daughter to collaborate and take risks. Three holiday programs under our belt, and she says she wants to go to the next one. I think you’d be hard pressed finding any of the kids who didn’t feel the same.iROCK Music School is everything we wanted in a music school and more.My daughter has been having group guitar lessons to meet other kids that play. She is very fond of her teacher Rob P, who has been so accommodating, patient and encouraging, inspiring her to take risks and grow with her skills. She has taken part in the end of year concert, and just now, a three day iROCK the holidays program with 28 other kids and had a ball.All teachers are kind, fun, enthusiastic and inspiring, and these kids are doing amazing things. The opportunities that iROCK keep coming up with to offer broader skills, and to connect and collaborate is fantastic! Next week she is going to a drum workshop as part of an offering for enrolled students.iROCK is so much more than a great small business in my local area. It is a living breathing community of amazing young artists growing in the guidance of some of the most genuine people around.Jerry, Rob, Sam and the Team have created a school that is full of heart, and an amazing place to have your family experience the joy of rock music.

After trying other local music schools and not being happy with them, we came across Irock, best decision was moving over, my son has learnt so much more here in 6 weeks than he did in 6 months at the previous school.The teachers are amazing and fun, they have great personalities and easy to talk to, we receive weekly updates on our children's progress with links to help at home.I highly recommend anyone to take the step and give them a try, you will not regret it.

My son has been attending weekly lessons for a few months now and he’s loved every minute! His confidence has improved all-round, his coordination and ability to play the drums has increased significantly in such a short time and most importantly, every time we come we are warmly welcomed by everyone we see. If you’re thinking about music lessons for your child- look no further and book a lesson today!

If you’re searching for quality music lessons for your child, you can now stop and do something more interesting as you’ve just found the best set of music teachers in the whole Melbourne area!My son has been attending iRock for guitar lessons for over a year and loves it. Heattends group guitar lessons every Saturday as well as a band practice with 3 other teenagers.The music teachers are all young, talented,enthusiastic and best of all, great at nurturing talent. Oh, and they’re patient!The school holiday programme where a group of kids form a band is really good fun and helps them learn to play togetherwith other musicians, which isn’t something many get the opportunityto do.So, if you’re looking for guitar lessons, drum lessons, singing lessons, piano lessons or lessons in anything else musical, iRock has got it covered.

My son just attended the irock school holiday program for the first time. From the beginning irock were great to deal with. When I originally enquired online Jerry called me for a chat to talk about the program and give me all the details. My son learnt so much in the program about how to play in a band and also got to meet lots of cool kids who love music too. Every time I had a concern they responded immediately. I’m so impressed with how professional this place is and how friendly all the teachers are. Looking forward to the next school holidays. Thanks guys.

Very professional music school. My son Learns electric guitar. He is 13 years old and has been attending lessons weekly for nearly three years now. Jerry has had a great connection with my son from the start. Very understanding and listes to what my sons intersts are and incorporates them into the session. He also loves the school holiday programs and joing in on being in a band. Thanks for your support Irock team.

My daughter attended the school holiday camp and our experience with iRock was exceptional - I can't speak highly enough of the experience and their staff. The venue is very modern and well thought out with multiple practice areas for children and a large upstairs space for performances. Each teacher seemed to have a genuine passion both for teaching and for music, taking extra time to film songs for her to practice at home and knowing all the children's names and needs. The venue was spotless and cleaned daily - something I really value post covid. She came away from camp understanding key concepts of music such as rhythm and playing in an ensemble and also made new friends. I wish this had existed when I was a child!

i have been learning guitar with jerry for over 4 years. through all of this time, i have improved drastically in my capabilities with the guitar. jerry always makes every lesson engaging and simple. irock has also led me to many opportunities to preform at many places, such as colemans music. 5/5 IROCK ROCKS!!!

My time at iROCK was magnificent, the team were always so helpful and accommodating to my needs & paced everything in a way that felt comfortable and natural. I learnt so much in my time there, skills that I will have for life. I always looked forward to my lessons and saw them as a highlight of the week. Couldn’t recommend any other place, they were simply the best.

The guys at iRock are amazing! They are so accomodating and professional, they always go the extra mile to make sure my children love what they are learning! Rob has been our teacher for 1.5 years, and my children have learned guitar, ukelele and now keyboard. I wouldn't go anywhere else for music lessons!
