Chutti Swing Club

Musical Exploration for Young Children

The Chutti Swing Club welcomes young children, starting from around 3 years old, providing a playful introduction to music in a relaxed and nurturing environment.

This lesson allows children to express themselves musically through engaging activities such as singing, rhythmic walking, clapping, and movement. Through these activities, children joyfully interact with music, developing a sense of rhythm, melody, and coordination. They also learn to listen, follow instructions, and work collaboratively with their peers. The aim is to create a space where children can discover and enjoy the world of music, fostering a lifelong love and appreciation for musical expression.

The Chutti Swing Club is designed to instill confidence, creativity, and a solid foundation in music, preparing children for future musical endeavors while ensuring they have fun every step of the way.

    Sri Lavanya began her artistic journey in 1998 at the Temple of Fine Arts in Malaysia. Under the guidance of Vasuki Sivanesan in Bharatanatyam and Shri Usha Ramachandran in Carnatic vocal, she laid a solid foundation in the arts. She continues to refine her skills with advanced training from the internationally acclaimed Mavin Khoo.

She trained in Odissi with Gowri Chandra and in Kathak with Dhanya Thurairajah, both esteemed disciples of renowned masters. Alongside dance, Lavanya has excelled in Carnatic music, especially on the flute, enriching her understanding of Indian Classical Art.
