I’ve had the privilege of learning under Pandit Mukund Marathe (son of the legendary Pandit Ram Marathe) in Mumbai and Pandit Gyan Singh in Delhi, absorbing the rhythmic heritage of Delhi and Farukhabad Gharanas. Over the years, I've performed and accompanied artists in classical concerts, bhajans, thumris, folk music, and fusion/jazz ensembles. My diverse experience allows me to bring a balanced, versatile, and musical approach to teaching—rooted in tradition but open to creativity. Why Learn from Me?

My Teaching Approach
As a tabla percussionist with over 15 years of training and performance experience, I believe in nurturing not just technical skill, but also a deep musical understanding and appreciation for rhythm. My goal is to make tabla learning enjoyable, intuitive, and tailored to each student’s pace and aspirations—whether you’re aiming to accompany bhajans at home or perform on stage in classical or fusion settings.
Teaching Techniques and Methods
I follow a structured yet flexible approach grounded in the traditional guru-shishya parampara while integrating modern tools for effective learning. My methods include:
Step-by-step instruction on hand technique, posture, and clarity of bols. Slow-to-fast progression for kaidas, relas, tukdas, and other compositions. Use of clapping and vocal recitation (padhant) to internalize rhythm. Practice tracks and video reviews to aid independent learning. Introducing compositions from both Delhi and Farukhabad Gharanas with context and musicality. Emphasis on listening, improvisation, and accompaniment dynamics across genres
What Makes My Teaching Unique
Blend of tradition and versatility – I specialize in both classical tabla and multi-genre accompaniment (bhajans, thumri, folk, fusion, jazz). Performance-oriented teaching – I train students to become confident accompanists, not just solo players. Musician’s mindset – I focus on listening, sensitivity, and musical interaction rather than rote playing. Supportive learning environment – Encouraging, adaptive, and patient with learners of all kinds
Who Can Join
My classes are open to:
School students (age 8+) starting Tabla or preparing for music exams. College students and adults looking to explore or advance their rhythm skills. Professional or hobbyist musicians seeking to deepen their accompaniment abilities. Learners from India and abroad, thanks to flexible online sessions
