Classical music taught through interesting and engaging lessons
The smiles say it all, always 🙂
Tootly was born out of the realisation that we lacked a fun and engaging way to bring traditional music to our next generation. And that as a result, young children were missing out or quickly dismissing learning music.
To know more about how music can help in cognition, memory, speech, language and other areas of brain development, see the Power of Music.
Tootly is proud of its child-centric, fun and engaging pedagogy. For the past few years, this programme has been 100% successful not only in creating a great foundation but also in nurturing an interest for musical pursuits as children grow up.
Our ‘alumna’ are now seriosuly pursuing everything from tabla to piano to carnatic vocals. Most importantly, their parents don’t have to force them to learn!

FOUNDER
IIM Ahmedabad alumna, ex-investment banker, ex-CEO and Hindustani classical vocalist.
Mother, manager, educator, musician.
Mukta is an alumna of the prestigious Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ahmedabad. Her several years of experience include capital markets advisory and execution at Kotak Investment Banking, design and creation of educational content for K-12 students, and heading the music academy and various artist initiatives at The Whitefield Project as CEO.

Music has been an integral part of Mukta’s family life since birth, thanks to her parents. As a mother, musician and manager, Mukta realised the need for an engaging pedagogy to deliver the traditional curriculum to young children.
Tootly is the result of her combined expertise and passion in music, management, education and parenthood.
