Online Carnatic Music Classes in HSR Layout, Bangalore

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.

Why families choose us

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.

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

Tala kept by hand, not counted silently in the head

Taught by a concert vocalist graded by All India Radio, not an assistant

Batches small enough that every child sings solo in every class

Timings

Batch timings for HSR Layout

Live classes on IST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.

Weekday 6:00 to 8:30 PM IST suits HSR best, after the Outer Ring Road and Silk Board commute rather than in the middle of it. Saturday and Sunday morning batches also run, and they fill fastest here of anywhere in the city.

HSR is also where Nrithyakshetra, our parent Bharatanatyam academy, teaches, so a good number of HSR families know us from there first and add shloka or arts alongside dance.

The curriculum

Online Carnatic Music Classes, module by module

What a year of online carnatic music classes actually covers, in the order we teach it.

01

Sruti and the Ear

Sitting with the tambura until the ear locks to the pitch, then holding it unaided. The module everything else is built on.

02

Sarali and Janta Varisai

The graded exercises of Mayamalavagowla, in three speeds, which is where tempo discipline actually begins.

03

Sapta Tala Alankaram

The seven talas kept by hand while singing. Rhythm stops being guesswork here.

04

Geetham and Swarajathi

First compositions with sahitya, where swara, meaning and rhythm meet and exercises become music.

05

Varnam and Krithi

Adi tala varnams, then krithis from the Trinity and from Purandaradasa, with gamaka taught phrase by phrase.

06

Raga Recognition

Learning to name a raga from a phrase, the first step towards a child who can think in the music.

Getting started is easy

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 trial to what they can already do.

2. Free trial with 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 IST. Weekday 6:00 to 8:30 PM IST suits HSR best, after the Outer Ring Road and Silk Board commute rather than in the middle of it.

About HSR Layout

Online Carnatic Music Classes for families in HSR Layout

HSR Layout, the Hosur–Sarjapur Road Layout, is planned in numbered sectors and is one of the youngest neighbourhoods in Bengaluru by the age of its families. Parents here ask us about confidence, about screen time, and about how to keep a child connected to their own culture when both parents work full days.

HSR is right across the city from our base off Kanakapura Road, which is precisely the point of a live online class: nobody sits at Silk Board to get their child to a lesson.

Around here: Agara Lake · HSR BDA Complex · 27th Main Road · Silk Board junction

My son now begins every day with his shlokas, chanting them perfectly, and actually understanding what they mean. What moved me most is how much calmer and more focused he has become.
