Online Music Classes for Kids in Chicago

Music classes that start with the instrument your child already has

Most parents looking for a music class are offered a keyboard or a guitar, and a year later the child can play three songs and still cannot sing in tune. We start with the voice, because the ear is what a musician is actually made of, and an ear trained on a classical foundation carries into any instrument, any language and any style the child picks up later.

Why families choose us

Music classes that start with the instrument your child already has

A class that teaches songs by imitation produces a child who can sing along to a track and falls apart without it. Training the ear produces the opposite: a child who can hold a note alone, find a pitch unprompted, and learn a new song by listening rather than by being drilled on it.

Chicago families come to us with long winters in mind — a live class a child can attend from a warm room, in a season when getting to a weekend cultural class across the metro is genuinely difficult, is a large part of the appeal here.

Nothing to buy, the first instrument is the child’s own voice

Ear training that transfers to keyboard, violin or anything later

Breath, posture and voice care taught from the first month

A child who can hold a tune alone, not only alongside a recording

Confidence for school choir, assembly and family functions

A graded concert vocalist teaching, in batches small enough to be heard

Timings

Batch timings for Chicago

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

Weekday 6:00 to 7:30 PM Central and Saturday and Sunday mornings Central. Central time makes the Indian-morning mentor slots workable without anybody in the household getting up early.

Naperville, Schaumburg, Aurora, Bolingbrook and the Devon Avenue neighbourhoods are where most of our Chicago families are. Several found us through the Bharatanatyam circuit our parent academy Nrithyakshetra is part of.

The curriculum

Online Music Classes for Kids, module by module

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

01

Finding the Voice

Breath, posture, open throat and the daily warm-up. Where singing stops being shouting.

02

Training the Ear

Matching, holding and moving between pitches, until the child hears their own mistake before the mentor does.

03

Rhythm in the Hands

Keeping time by hand while singing, in the common talas, so rhythm lives in the body rather than in a count.

04

First Songs

Simple compositions with words and meaning, where everything learned so far turns into music a family recognises.

05

Learning by Listening

Picking up a new line by ear instead of by repetition, the skill that makes a child independent of the teacher.

06

Singing for People

Preparing two songs properly and performing them at the termly online showcase.

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 music classes for kids 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 CT. Weekday 6:00 to 7:30 PM Central and Saturday and Sunday mornings Central.

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.

Questions

Online Music Classes for Kids in Chicago, FAQs

Singing, almost always. The voice trains the ear, and the ear is what makes an instrument learnable. Children who come to a keyboard after a year of vocal training move noticeably faster than those who start cold.
