Online Carnatic Music Classes in Columbus
Carnatic classes that build the voice in the right order
The ladder in Carnatic music is not decoration. Sruti, then sarali varisai, then janta, then alankaram, then geetham, then varnam, and each rung only holds because the one under it was done properly. Most children who stall after two years stalled because a class skipped ahead to songs while the ear was still guessing at the note.

Carnatic classes that build the voice in the right order
A recorded lesson can teach a child the notes of a varisai. It cannot hear that they are singing the ri a shade flat, and a flat ri repeated for six months is very hard to unlearn. Every batch is live and small enough that each child sings alone and gets that correction while the note is still in the air.
Columbus has two quite different Hindu communities: Indian professionals in Dublin and the northwest suburbs, and one of the largest Bhutanese-Nepali communities in the United States, families resettled as refugees who rebuilt temple life here from nothing. Both ask us for the same thing — Sanskrit taught properly to children growing up in English.
Sruti fixed first, because nothing built above a wrong foundation survives
The traditional order kept: sarali, janta, alankaram, geetham, varnam
Three speeds from the first month, so kalapramanam is never bolted on later
Batches small enough that every child sings solo in every class

Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For online carnatic music classes that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to what they can already do.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with your child for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class of ours for them.
3. Pick a slot that survives the school week
We place your child in a batch built for ET. Weekday 6:30 to 8:00 PM Eastern and Saturday morning Eastern..
“My daughter used to freeze on stage. After a few months of public speaking classes, she confidently delivered a speech at her school assembly. The mentors are patient and truly gifted.”

A quiet corner, headphones, a device with a decent microphone, and a free tambura or sruti app on a phone. A physical sruti box is useful later and is never needed to begin.
