Carnatic music classes
Carnatic music for every age, taught the traditional way
Structured, patient Carnatic training for all age groups — children from about 4 years, teenagers and adults — from the first swara to the first temple stage.
Who can join
Every age group, beginners welcome
There is no fixed age limit. We teach children — we especially welcome little ones from about 4 years — as well as teenagers and adults. No prior music knowledge is needed; every student begins with the foundation stage. Young children start with simple swaras and rhythm, while older beginners move faster through the early stages.
What students learn
- ◆Voice, pitch and shruti with the tambura
- ◆Varisai — the rhythmic foundation
- ◆Geethams and simple devotional songs
- ◆Varnams for voice control
- ◆Kritis of the great composers
- ◆Stage presence and confidence

Frequently asked questions
Questions families ask us
Is there an age limit to start?
No. We teach every age group — children (we welcome them from about 4 years), teenagers and adults. Young children start with simple swaras and rhythm; older beginners progress faster through the foundation stages.
Is any prior music knowledge needed?
No. Every student begins with the foundation stage, whatever their age or background.
What are the class timings and fees?
We run small-group batches on weekday evenings and weekends. Send us a WhatsApp message and we will share the current timetable and fees.
Can we try a class first?
Yes. A trial class lets the student meet the teacher and experience the classroom before you decide.
Will students get chances to perform?
Yes. Students perform at temple festivals, utsavams and our Annual Day as they progress.
What if my child loses interest?
Children learn in small groups with friends their age, and every stage ends with a song they can sing at home. Most children settle in within a few weeks; we speak with parents regularly about progress.
Do you offer online classes?
Yes, for students outside Guntur we offer online sessions. Message us to check availability.
