Then get ready to start your tabla journey?

he tabla, also known as goblet drums, consists of two main parts: the Daya, which produces high-pitched sounds, and the Baya, which creates low-pitched tones. This versatile instrument is used in both North Indian (Hindustani) and Carnatic music traditions and features prominently across various genres such as folk, devotional, and classical music. Solo singers often incorporate tabla bols into their performances for rhythmic depth.

In our tabla classes in Raipur, students start by learning the basic strokes. For the Daya, these include Na (finger stroke), Tin (light finger touch), and Ta (fingertip stroke). For the Baya, hand strokes like Ghe (ring finger strike near the center), Ke (whole hand strike with a quick lift), and Ka (strike with the outer edge of the palm) are taught. These fundamentals are thoroughly practiced during the first month.
