SaPa (Sanjaynagar Headquarters) - Subramaniam Academy of Performing Arts

Incredible music academy for remote learners. I am learning Carnatic violin as an adult (I've learnt a bit of violin as a child) and am thoroughly enjoying the experience, both theory wise and creativity wise. The guru is very attentive and is always ready to address any doubts, and willing to go the distance to achieve near perfection. The best motivation in my life.

My son is getting trained for violin since two years under Shri Vivek Vasudevan, who is a very good teacher. The curriculum and learning is very structured. It is a great place to learn instruments.

I wouldn't recommend this academy for your learning needs. I live in the USA and reached out to this academy with the intent of providing my child, who is already learning the violin, with the best teaching experience. However, I’ve had to repeatedly follow up with the coordinator, only to be met with unfulfilled promises of a response. Despite assurances, I have yet to hear back from them. Overall experience had been crazy and in the meantime I found a wonderful violin teacher from Chennai.

This is a good place to learn violin. It has structured curriculum for learning.

Excellent school, staff with top class curriculum. I’m learning Carnatic violin from Manjunath sir. He is patient, professional, knowledgeable and a very skilled teacher. He has a multi camera set up that let me view exactly what technique I need to play/practice clearly. This makes it easy to learn an instrument online. I am excited to learn more with him. My vocal teacher is Sneha Ajeya. She is a wonderful gifted skilled awesome teacher. My 10 year old daughter and I are both her students and love her dearly! We are always excited and look forward to her classes and have new found love for Carnatic music because of her.

Best place to meet professional and talented musicians.Thanks to be a part of SaPa Community. Students get exposed to all kind of styles/ genre (Carnatic/Western). Great place to learn and improve on skills. Have been a part of this academy for more than one and half year as Guitar Educator and have to say, fantastic place to explore music and musicality !!!

A performing arts school started by a well-known musician. It's quite famous in the area with students all over from the world. Parking is a big issue here because of narrow residential lanes. They teach almost all Indian instruments, some Western instruments, and vocal. Charges are reasonable if you are an Indian citizen.

An excellent institution for children for thorough learning of Indian classical music, be it vocal or instrumental, from well-trained teachers and gurus. The teaching method is authentic and unique to SaPa. Overall, SaPa's efforts will ensure our rich cultural heritage is well preserved.

Not for adults who want to learn music. Serious children also shouldn't go here. Branding is good, workshops are okay, syllabus is bad, real learning is slow even for talented individuals and kids. Expensive and no great returns. They kill creativity and make students use to mechanical learning and manodharma goes down the drain. Too much focus on technique, zero focus on feel, manodharma and intellectualism.

Legendary place to learn Violin, Carnatic Vocal, Choir, Piano and many more. Well trained teachers and friendly staffs!! I highly recommend this place for any music enthusiast, who wants to learn and pursue their music career...

My daughter is attending violin classes under the guidance of Guru Vivek Sir, and I am really happy and satisfied with her progress.

High quality training in violin and many other related areas in music, consistent and structured content, amazing music, heads of the institution involve themselves completely in the children's growth path, fun activities bring together all like a family.

My friend and I conducted a workshop at SaPa about 'a-capella' music and its variations. Those in attendance were the students and staff members of the academy who greeted us warmly and made us feel at home. During the course of this workshop, I found SaPa to be an excellent place for students young and old to explore a variety of genres in music. The staff are very experienced and well versed in their fields of musical expertise. I was given a tour by Bindu Subramaniam and her brother Ambi Subramaniam who run the place. The staff are patient, passionate and detailed while teaching enthusiastic and excited students! I was also struck by Bindu and Ambi's efforts to give their best to the school and its functioning. If you are interested in learning music, I strongly recommend you to include SaPa among the music schools you may consider. I believe that SaPa is on the right track and has a very bright future ahead.

Greetings to the SaPa team, We are very happy to see how dedicated and interested the SaPa and its faculty are to my son's coaching. Any communications are shared in a timely manner. There is also a lot of professionalism in the way the in-person events are organized. My sincere thanks go out to Nisha ma'am and Vani ma'am for their support.

I am a working professional who wanted to reconnect with learning mridangam which I had briefly learned in my younger days. I was apprehensive. Have had a wonderful experience with mridangam teacher Rajkumar sir. He is patient , flexible and goes the extra mile in making me comfortable. He understands the pulls and pressures for a working professional but in his own understated way, he ensures that I invest time in this hobby. Would definitely recommend for people looking for a break from their busy schedules and connect with music.

Quality education!!! Teachers are immensely talented!! A great place to indulge in knowledge of music!! Such a blessing for kids to learn "Quality Music"!!🙏

One of the best academies for children and adults to learn music. Well structured curricula with help of multimedia tools while maintaining traditional values.

Good music and Art teaching school for kids and adults also.. managed and run by Mr Subramaniam the husband of Mrs Kavita Krishnamurthy.. once u enrol your child there u know u have sent them to the right people who will give them good guidance and also training before they become big stars

A very good academy imparting Indian Classical music to children.. Dedicated teachers and staff.

So far the teacher and the student bonding is very well.. sapa classes are well organised and very systematic
