Learning Carnatic music from Sushraavya School of Music has been a very unique experience for me. I get personal attention from the teacher, and flexibility of class time. The notation of music lessons and the meaning of the sahithya are all provided by my teacher via email as well as Mp3 recording of the lessons are sent after the session is over. This makes learning very easy and interesting! Thanks to Dr. Viji, my teacher.

Dear Dr. Vijayalakshmi,
I was browsing through the net for some carnatic music sites. My specification to learn carnatic music is in the very grammatical form strictly to develop the basic grammar and detailed nuances of varnams and keertanas right from the beginning. Luckily, I could see  your website : www.sushraavya.com for the same.  I am very much happy that you are very perfect in understanding my specification. I really thank you for the sincerity and patience and discipline and punctual in your teaching.  Mostly I saw the perfection. That is really amazing and shows me the hard work and enthusiasm in you. My sincere wishes for a bright future and happy life. Thanks a lot and wish to learn more from you.

Learning the nuances of Carnatic music and singing, from Sushraavya School of Music has helped me cope up with my day to day stress and hectic life schedule. I like to start my day with a song that I was taught online. This helps me start my day with peace of mind and calmness. I started music lessons at a mid-stage in life. This has assured me that age is not a barrier for learning. Thanks to my teacher, Dr. Viji & the internet technology. Carnatic music has provided me more concentration and focus. When I take lessons from Dr. Viji, or practice, my mind is very focused with music as the only thought. I consider Carnatic music a form of meditation and personally, I feel so good and proud of myself when I am able to sing my favorite compositions.

Dear Ma'm
I would like to extend my sincere thanks for the first module of shlokas Medha and Anika, our 5 year olds have learned from you. The online mode has not been a challenge at all and the way you ensure correct pronunciation of each word of the shloka is amazing. We liked the way the course content is structured; the pdf's and .mps3 you have shared are of great help to understand the meaning and for revision purposes. With very little revision, they have been able to recall and sing Krishnaashtakam and the other shlokas. We are amazed at the way they repeat them as their favorite pastime when they started with the lessons and the credit goes to you. Very happy that they got you as their guru. Looking forward to the next modules.

I have been pursuing Carnatic music vocal lessons from Dr. Viji for the last 3 years. Her teaching style is very well rounded where she teaches a combination of voice exercises in addition to traditional varnams, kritis in every class. This has improved my voice quality and rendition of gamakams. She is very organized and well prepared for class, sending the notation for every lesson ahead of time. She has a great voice and gives a lot of importance to clear and correct pronunciation of sahityam. Overall, Dr Viji's combined skill, experience and passion for music make her a highly qualified music teacher.

Shloka student.

I started learning from Viji ji a few years back. Started with Bhagavad Gita (finished 4 chapters), then completed Vishnu Sahasranamam and now Lalitha Sahasranamam.
All I can say is it is an absolute honour to learn from Viji ji. She probably is the best teacher around. Her eye for detail is unmatchable and she won’t give up till you get it right. It sometimes makes me feel like I have gone back to my school days. But I do realise now that it was her perseverance without which today I would not be able to say that I am comfortable to chant Vishnu Sahasranaamam and also teach. I am grateful to Viji ji for having given me an opportunity to be her student now and continue to learn many more.
