Teaching Experience in detail in Tabla Classes
Starting my tabla journey at the age of 3, I trained in the traditional gurukul system under the guidance of Ganayogi Puttaraja Gawayi Ji and later with Pandit Shantaram Ji Chigari Ji. Immersed in a rich and disciplined environment, I developed a profound understanding and passion for tabla, which eventually led me to work as a tabla accompanist at Kannada University Hampi. This role allowed me to hone my skills and collaborate with various artists, further deepening my musical insights. Currently based in Bangalore, I am actively involved in a diverse range of musical activities, including recordings, TV shows, and concerts. These engagements provide me with platforms to showcase my talent and collaborate with fellow musicians, enriching my musical journey. Amidst these performances, my commitment to nurturing the next generation of tabla enthusiasts remains unwavering. I take great pride in sharing my extensive knowledge and experience with students, helping them develop both technical proficiency and a deep appreciation for the art form. My teaching philosophy blends traditional techniques with modern approaches, ensuring that students receive a well-rounded education. By incorporating the discipline and rigor of the gurukul system with contemporary methods, I create a dynamic and engaging learning environment. My goal is to inspire and guide my students, fostering a lifelong love for tabla and Indian classical music. Through personalized instruction and mentorship, I strive to bring out the best in each student, nurturing their unique musical journey.

"Jaleel Sir is a fantastic coach and a true master of Tabla. He has encouraged and taught me with exceptional skill, using the online medium. I was a complete beginner but never feel like its an online class because of his attention to detail and his complete mastery over the instrument. He is supportive and encouraging at every step along the way. I highly recommend Jaleel Sir to all enthusiasts. It has been an awesome experience and I really look forward to progressing more in learning this instrument. "
