About Singing Performance Coaching
Why I Coach Singing
I started Swarmaanas because I believe anyone can sing, even if you think your voice isn’t “perfect.” My own journey wasn’t easy - people compared me to my mother, Smt. Uttara Kelkar, and I felt I’d never match up. But my guru taught me that singing is about feeling, not just sound. So, I focus on helping you find your own joy and confidence.
What We’ll Work On
- Singing with bhaav (emotion) - connecting to the song’s mood, not just the notes.
- Stage presence coaching - simple tricks like singing with your eyes open to connect with people.
- Breathing control - practical ways to avoid strain and get better resonance.
- Voice modulation techniques - making your singing more dynamic and interesting.
Who Should Join
If you’re a bathroom singer, or someone who’s always wanted to sing but feels shy, this is for you. Even if you think you’re a “35% wale” (not good enough), you’ll fit right in. We run beginner singing workshops, certificate courses, and regular classes online and in Mumbai/Pune.
My Promise
I want you to sing, be happy, and feel aanandi (joyful). Gaat raha, khush raha (keep singing, stay happy). No pressure to be a pro - just enjoy the music and express yourself.

My Story
Namaskar! Mi Manasi Kelkar Tambe. Yes, my mother sings brilliantly, but my awaaz (voice) is not like hers - asthma made it hasky. People always compared, but my guru Patki ji said, 'tuza bhaav khup changla' (your emotion is your strength). I teach those who feel singing isn't for them. Anybody Can Sing, it's about joy, not perfection. Sagli dukha palun jaatat (all sorrows run away) when you sing from the heart. That's Swarmaanas.
