About Carnatic Vocal Music Classes
Why We Teach Carnatic Vocal
Music is the breath of dance, and at Sreejaya’s School of Classical Dance, I see both as deeply connected. Opening our doors to Carnatic vocal music feels natural - it’s about helping you become a complete artist, whether you’re a dancer or just someone who loves music.
What You’ll Learn
Classes focus on two pillars:
- Sruthi (Pitch): Finding and holding your note. This is the base for melody.
- Laya (Rhythm): Understanding the pulse and timing that gives Carnatic music its life.
I always say, Sangeetham oru saadhana aanu (music is a spiritual practice). It’s not just about singing songs, but about finding calm, focus, and discipline.
Who Can Join?
- Carnatic music for beginners: If you’re starting from scratch, I’ll guide you step-by-step.
- Carnatic music for dancers: Dancers, strengthening your sruthi and laya will change your performance.
- Anyone seeking santhosham (joy): If you want music in your life, you’re welcome here.
How You Can Learn
- Online Carnatic vocal classes: Join live, interactive sessions from home.
- Offline at HSR Layout, Bangalore: Experience the energy of learning together in person.
My Approach
No shortcuts, no rush. It’s about nammude musical journey (our musical journey) and lifelong learning. I’m here to guide you patiently, whether you want to sing, dance, or just enjoy music.

My Story
We started Sreejaya's School of Classical Dance because dance is home for us. My film days with legends like Lalettan and Mammootty were lovely, but building this school with Madan was a dream. Here, students—my own daughter included—don’t just learn steps, they live Bharatanatyam. Our classrooms grew with every dancer who walked in. Anyone who wants to dance, just walk in. This is your family too.
My Work
Classes in Bharatanatyam and Carnatic music - We teach Bharatanatyam (Kalakshetra style) and Carnatic music for all ages, online and offline in Bangalore.
Traditional yet personal approach - Our focus is on bhava, raga, tala - not just perfect steps. Every student finds their own dance voice.
Never too late to start - Whether you’re 7 or 37, your stage is waiting. Serious learners, yes, it’s a long journey, but always possible.
From practice to stage - Students perform at Margam and Nrithya Sandhya, celebrating hard work and growth in Bharatanatyam stage performance training.
