About Sahana
I used to be a quiet and shy individual, finding myself in situations where there were either language barriers or my shyness hindering my ability to speak. Singing was my way to communicate. I started off my musical journey in Fremont, California under the guidance of Grammy nominee Margo Leduc. Our focus was on how to sing for a performance, how to sing with intention and emotion, how to project your voice. But singing with intention, emotion, projecting my voice seemed so vague. How do I intentionally make a section of a song sound powerful? How do I make a section of a song sound sweet and subtle? I learned a lot from my teachers. I learned how to use my chest voice to project my voice better in my low and mid-range. I studied a bit of opera to build my head voice, to make my voice sound sweeter, but during my journey as a singer, I often hit brick walls and felt like I could not hit the notes I wanted to hit, or sing as agile as I wanted to. That’s when I decided to explore more about the anatomy of the voice on my own and learned how to sing easily across my range whatever tones and power I chose to use. I was always extra enthusiastic about being detail-oriented when building my voice. I trained under so many different instructors, read books, did online courses and learned how to blend the registers, intentionally move my voice box to sound better, how to shape my vowels to achieve the sound I want. Each time my voice grew stronger and broke self-perceived barriers, I became more confident about my voice, and I started speaking more. It took a lot of patience as it was a journey. I learned how to be patient with myself, I worked very consistently, set small achievable goals and solved the questions I had, to get results I wanted for my voice. With that, I grew more confident as a singer, as a speaker, as a performer and as a person. As a teacher and as a singer, I'm always doing my own homework too and constantly updating my knowledge and finding new ways to teach vocal technique better so that everyone has a clear roadmap on how to grow their voice. Who said that people with low voices can’t belt high notes? Who said people with high voices can’t sound warm too. These are the barriers I aim to break for you to help you find your voice. This is for music enthusiasts and hobbyists who want to have fun seeing their voice breaking barriers, musicians who want another skill to add to their portfolios and day-to-day hustlers who need a fun space to just sing their hearts out.

I have been learning to sing for about 17 years and I have been teaching vocals for over 5 years. Over this course of time, I have been developing a vocal method that is focused on mastering vocal range, blending registers, belting, and agility with as much detail as I can. My approach is highly personalized, emphasizing the importance of understanding the musculature involved in singing and using targeted exercises to overcome vocal challenges. I work closely with each student to identify specific exercises that yield the best results, tailoring the practice to your unique voice, empowering you to sing freely and confidently and most importantly, be yourself.
What you will learn: Western Vocal Techniques ONLY
1. A thorough understanding of "singing from the diaphragm".
2. How to build your chest voice, head voice, falsetto and mixed voice to sing high notes and low notes easily.
3. A thorough understanding of how to use muscles like the abdomen and larynx to sing efficiently.
4. How to remove any strain or tension in your throat.
5. Belting & blending registers
6. Vocal Agility
7. Special techniques like vibrato, singing riffs and runs.
8. Applying vocal techniques to the songs you enjoy singing.
During each of our sessions, I will be taking notes, with written feedback, so that every student knows what to practice, when and for how long. I'll break it down in steps and stages and paint a clear roadmap to grow your voice.

Perfect! Sahana has a really articulative way of teaching about musical and vocal concepts. She is patient and understands the student. With a wide range of musical knowledge and global exposure coupled with touring and live performances in venues like Hard Rock Cafe, she is my go to vocal coach!
Perfect! We are so lucky we found Sahana! She has been exceptional with our 9 year old daughter Vaanya. And the way she has gradually evolved learning is we have never experienced before - starting such that the student develops comfort and then gradually increasing the rigour in subsequent classes and then continuing to evolve. My daughter is always looking forward to her Western Vocal classes with Sahana. Sahana is always open to feedback and always keeps comings with new ideas for her students to become better. I so wish she could do in-person classes with her if we were in the same city. We are very happy with our choice and we strongly recommend her!
Perfect! I'm glad I found a teacher as patient, friendly and knowledgeable as Miss Sahana. She's a passionate vocal artist/ coach and caters to my needs efficiently. I'm seeing improvement in my vocal health and singing is coming along really well.

Perfect! She has been teaching vocals to my 11 year old daughter. It has been a wonderful experience so far and quite glad that we engaged with her.

She not only helps in increasing your range of music and helps you improve but also give insights in theory of music. Overall a great experience so far!!

Sahana is very honest in a friendly way with her feedback and makes you instantly comfortable from the first day you study with her. I have had several music teachers since I was 10 but none who have pushed me to my artistic limits yet always maintained a positive and helpful attitude like her. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sahana to anyone trying to find their ropes in singing whether they are a first time learner or even with a couple of years of experience under their belt.
Only with my first two sessions of sahana's tutelage I could already feel more confident of my ability to sing and carry a song. Sahana has the knack of making sure she gives all to her students and takes them through the concepts really well. Just make sure to do your homework, and you will have progressed faster than you'd think! thanks for the help sahana
