How do I start learning the ghatam?

You can learn the ghatam with KalaSudha online and in workshops, and as a beginner you start at Foundation level. Foundation sets the pot in your lap and teaches its three primary tones, from the metallic finger strike to the bass at the mouth. We teach children as well as adults; ask us about a starting age and about a pot size for a younger learner.

After a long break, start again where you left off. Our courses are set out in levels, and your teacher first hears where you stand.
