The activity

Music Lessons, explained

Music lessons pair a child with a teacher to learn an instrument or singing step by step, one-to-one or in a small group. Kids build listening skills, coordination and focus through regular practice, and many work towards graded exams that mark each level. Plenty of children start young with playful beginner methods, and no experience is needed. At Sruthi, keyboard and piano classes take children from age 4, with Trinity College London exam preparation for those who want it. The school also runs dance, art, chess and the Brainobrain abacus programme, so siblings with different interests can learn under one roof.

Who it's for

Keyboard and piano classes take children from age 4, plus teens and adults. Bharatanatyam welcomes children, teens and adults from complete beginners up. Brainobrain runs age-appropriate batches for 4-14 year olds, with 5-7 a common starting point. Chess and art classes cater for beginner, intermediate and advanced learners. The school's pages do not say which of these run at each branch, so ask the branch you pick.

What to expect

Sruthi offers a free trial class for keyboard and piano, Western vocal, chess and Brainobrain - ask the branch about a trial for dance. Keyboard, piano and Bharatanatyam run as two 1-hour classes a week in small groups or one-to-one; Brainobrain, chess and art are one 2-hour class a week. Bharatanatyam students wear red leggings and a white kurta. Brainobrain has a one-time enrolment and materials fee that includes a starter kit with abacus and workbook. Keyboard and piano can also be taken online, and pick-up and drop-off is available at extra cost. Pick a branch on this page to see its address, hours and phone.
