Ajivasan Juhu (Head Office), Suresh Wadkar's Academy of Music, Dance & Art

We have learned a lot from the academy, and all the teachers teach us very well. The techniques and tricks they share are extremely helpful, especially for our practice. The labs and practice setups available here have helped us make a lot of progress because, apart from the classes, we also get a proper environment to practice regularly. We make full use of it, and it is really helping us improve.

Also, we would love to have more studio sessions, practical lectures, and guest lectures, as they would help us even more in developing our composing skills.

I would like to sincerely appreciate the wonderful efforts of Hemant Bhosale Sir at Ajivasan Academy for his dedication to teaching tabla. His patience, clarity in explaining techniques, and passion for music truly inspire students to improve and enjoy the learning process. His classes are always engaging, and he ensures that every student progresses with confidence and strong fundamentals.

I would also like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Kalyani Ma’am for her excellent guidance in singing. Her teaching style is encouraging, structured, and full of positive energy. She pays attention to every detail and helps students refine their skills while building confidence in their voice.

Both teachers create a very supportive and motivating learning environment. Their commitment and love for music make Ajivasan Academy a great place to learn and grow.

My experience after having joined Ajivasan Musical Academy at Juhu last October, has been an enriching one👍🎶🎵! My search for a guru ended here in Ansh Upadhyay ji, who has the knowledge and requisite expertise to guide us in our musical journey. His finer nuances, classical approach to singing, introducing various ragas, alankaars, taal etc to us, while correcting the diction and methodology of singing different songs have been a strong guiding force for me. The Academy itself is very well structured with an immensely positive, clean and lively ambience! The staff are courteous and address our requirements adequately well. The monthly Karaoke sessions help us to understand singing on the pre-recorded track, cope up with stage fright in front of an audience and learn to appreciate others' singing. I am enjoying my time at Ajivasan and would encourage others to join based on their liking of Bollywood songs, light or heavy classical in vocals, dance or instrumentation🙂💐🙏.

At 65, I finally gathered the courage to pursue a childhood dream I had carried in my heart for decades; to learn how to sing. Joining Ajivasan Music Academy has truly been a life-changing experience for me.

The environment here is warm, encouraging, and deeply inspiring. The teachers are not only skilled but also incredibly patient and supportive, making learning enjoyable at every step. They understand that passion has no age, and that belief reflects in the way they guide and nurture each student.

Another wonderful aspect is that the training is very affordable, making it accessible to everyone regardless of their social stature, without compromising on quality. The support staff is also extremely kind, helpful, and always ready to assist with a smile.

This academy has given wings to a dream I had almost forgotten. It has filled my days with joy, confidence, and a renewed sense of purpose. I am truly grateful to be part of this esteemed music academy under the able guidance of Padma Shri Suresh Wadkar ji and his better half Padma Wadkar Ma'am.
