Curriculum

Private Lessons

Private lessons are offered on a one to one basis in all singing and instruments learning. We have found that

private one to on one instruction allows students to progress at their own pace and gain the best understanding. However, it all depends upon the capability of the student. Students may start lessons at

any time of the year or month, so there's no reason to wait to get started.

 

Group Lessons

Our group classes follow a different curriculum to our private one-on-one classes. They are run in a fun, relaxed, format with a strong emphasis on teamwork and support from your classmates.

 

All of the important principles covered in our private lessons will be covered in group classes. These include: pitch and ear training, confidence building, correct technique, stage presentation, audience interaction and performance skills.

 

Through group classes, all students will be given the correct warm up techniques and a regimen to practice

at home together with their songs.

 

Online Lessons

SIMDA assures you that we are keeping up with the latest groundbreaking technology so we can give you

the highest quality lessons online. All online lessons are via SKYPE. Our Skype lessons conducted online are

no different from our private lessons in our Melbourne locations.

 

All you need is a good computer or notebook, a good internet connection, a set of headphones, a pair of speakers if your computers speakers are not loud enough and a web cam for your computer.

 

Online lessons are perfect for you if you live too far away from our locations or if you cannot spare time

from tight schedule to attend a lesson.

 

Comprehensive Half Day or Full Day Workshops

It’s perfect for people who live interstate or cannot find time in their schedule who want to cover a large

amount of training in the course of your choice.

 

The course will start with a brief chat and discussion about what you want to achieve out of the course

and then a thorough assessment. The rest of the course will then be customised personally to work on

the

points that are most clinical to achieve maximum results in your singing or instruments in the allocated time.

The choice is always yours to work on whatever you wish in your class; though our teachers will give you

their professional opinion about what should be done and where the class should be heading to achieve maximum results.

courses are filled with fun activities and explain concepts in a manner that is easy to understand for

the child.

Senior music lessons

The Seniors Indian music course is perfect for older beginners or people who want to pick up

where they may have left off many years ago.

 

There are many tremendous benefits for seniors to gain from learning Indian music and singing. People say

music is good for your soul, but we now know music has a powerful effect on the brain and can enhance memory, motor coordination and communication. After a busy life, why not learn to play a Indian music in

your retirement. It is the ideal activity to enrich your life.
