How We Teach Music: Our Approach at Riyaaz with Nishaa
Think music is just for the 'talented' few? We disagree. Here is how we make learning an instrument feel less like a boring lesson and more like finding your own vibe.
I've dreamt of having my own music school since I was in ninth grade, a place to spread the love of music to everyone. In this video, I share my vision for the school and why teaching is my ultimate passion.
One of our biggest strengths is our small batch size. This ensures that every student gets one on one attention from our expert tutors, helping them learn faster and build a stronger foundation in music.
Many people think of drums as just noise, but it's so much more. Learning drums is one of the best skills for a child, improving coordination, focus, and confidence. It's not chaos, it's growth in progress.
What can drums teach you? Beyond rhythm, they teach valuable life skills like teamwork during a jam session, patience through slow practice, and the joy of celebration when you finally nail that groove.
Riyaaz with Nishaa is more than just a music school. We offer training on multiple instruments from beginner to advanced levels, with expert teachers in a fun, supportive environment that feels like a family.
Here's a quick and fun rapid fire session with me right outside the studio. I answer a few questions about my musical journey, my favorite part about teaching, and even share a funny story from a student.
About Our Approach to Music
We keep our batches intentionally small so you get real, one-on-one attention, not just a seat in a crowded room. Whether you are learning Bollywood vocals or picking up the guitar, I focus on your specific rhythm, your mistakes, and your growth, not just ticking off items on a syllabus. If you are struggling with a chord or a scale, we take the time to fix it together until you get it right.
Why We Do Things Differently
Many people think you need to be born with 'talent' to play an instrument. We are not buying that. At Riyaaz with Nishaa in Ghatkopar, we believe music is a skill, a habit, and a way to feel alive. Whether you are a 3-year-old toddler exploring rhythm or an adult fulfilling a lifelong dream, my classes are designed to build your confidence from day one.
Our Teaching Philosophy
- No Crowd, Just Focus: We avoid large batches. By keeping class sizes small, I ensure every student has space to experiment, ask questions, and practice without feeling judged or lost in the noise.
- Your Vibe, Your Choice: Want to learn Indian Classical, Bollywood, or Western vocals? Want to play the Tabla or the Drums? You pick the style that speaks to you. My job is to give you the foundation so you can play what you love.
- The Annual Concert: We don't just learn behind closed doors. Every student gets the chance to perform at our annual concert. It is not about perfection; it is about the experience of sharing your music with others and shining like a rockstar.
The Environment
We practice in a sound-treated, air-conditioned studio with high-quality gear like the Alesis electronic drum kit and professional microphones. It is a creative space meant for jamming, not just classroom theory. If you are looking for a place where you can make mistakes, learn, and actually have fun, this is your tribe.
