Helping people pursue their passion for music

A vast majority of people are passionate about music. A good number of them are gifted with musical skills too. Unfortunately, all of them don't get the opportunity to pursue their passion, even as a pastime activity. Some don't get access to Gurus due to their location; others don't find the timing flexible, many find it difficult to commute.Gaayak began its musical journey in 2018 with a mission to change all these.

Started as an online music school, over the years, Gaayak has helped students of all ages - from 4 to even 80 - give shape to their dreams. A large number of children, working professionals, homemakers, senior citizens have all become our 'students.'

Gaayak is now a holistic music education platform offering over 75 courses in vocal and instrumental categories. Be it Carnatic or semi-classical, or western, we have it all covered. While leveraging the latest advancements in technology, Gaayak has not deviated from its core principle of one-to-one live classes.

Gaayak's mobile apps reinforce learning with the provision to schedule classes, record sessions, tutorials, practice courses, self-assessment modules, quizzes, ebooks, gamification videos, audios, performance tracking, and a lot more. The app is a virtual tutor, and the one-stop source for students, trainers, and parents. We've spent a lot of time developing both the content and the container - the app.

Partnering with Educational Institutions, Corporates

Armed with a unique, engaging curriculum and a strong technology framework, we are partnering with schools, colleges, and corporates to impart music education to their students, and employees respectively.
