Music is for everyone - that's what I believe. My goal is to help you find your own musical spark, whether you're just starting out or want to level up your skills. ### Bariiki Matters I pay attention to the *bariiki* (finer details). It's not just about playing notes. Like, tuning a flute with a tanpura or nailing the right blowing technique - these basics make all the difference. I start with fundamentals so you actually connect with your instrument. ### Instruments We Teach You can pick from a bunch of options, both Indian and Western: - Guitar (acoustic/electric), drums, keyboard, piano, violin - Flute (bansuri), tabla, dholak, harmonium ### How You Learn Your vibe, your pace. Choose what suits you: - 1-on-1 private classes for personalized guitar lessons or any other instrument - Group music sessions if you like learning with others - We jam together, help you form bands, and sometimes students perform after just five sessions ### Who's It For? *Aapke liye* (for you) if you love music, no matter your level: - Absolute beginners (never held an instrument? No problem) - Parents looking for beginner music classes for kids (we teach young students too) - Intermediate players stuck on a plateau ### Try Before You Decide Not sure? Join our free workshops for guitar, flute, tabla and more. Get hands-on, ask questions, see if it's your thing. ## Highlights Browse through Zen Music Academy's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/zenmusicacademy/musical-instrument-lessons/featured) - [Video: This is what happens at Zen Music Academy.

Here, it’s not just about notes, it’s about that feeling when you lose yourself in a jam. Sometimes, you’ll see our tabla and harmonium teachers just start playing after class, or kids forming a band out of nowhere. Some teachers have been at it for 30 years, some are just starting out. Feels like a big musical family, really. Mira Road to Vasai, we keep growing, and we love our free workshops - bas aao aur try karo (just come and try). ### My work - **Music classes for all instruments**: Guitar, drums, keyboard, piano, vocals (Indian & Western), flute, tabla, dholak, harmonium, violin. Group ya 1-on-1, your choice. - **Beginners to advanced, all are welcome**: Doesn’t matter if you’re just starting or stuck somewhere, aapka swagat hai (you’re welcome). - **Our 'Zen' way**: We go deep into bariiki (details). Like tuning flute with breath, or finding your own style. Not just what, but how. - **Community and jams**: Teachers and students jam, learn, and grow together. Sometimes it’s a tabla and dholak jam session, sometimes a group keyboard class. Always fun. ## More services from Zen Music Academy - [Vocal Training](https://mytribe.in/zenmusicacademy/vocal-training) · ₹1,200-2,500 per month (group class, 4 sessions) (estimate) - [Introductory Music Workshops](https://mytribe.in/zenmusicacademy/introductory-music-workshops) · ₹200-700 per person per workshop (estimate) ## Book To book Zen Music Academy, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Musical%20Instrument%20Lessons%20by%20Zen%20Music%20Academy.)
