About SSOPA

Class of Gurmat Sangeet in Sikh School of Performing Arts Academy
SSOPA was created with a clear purpose – to teach Gurmat Sangeet and Tabla the way it is meant to be taught with correctness, discipline, and respect.
Over time, Gurmat music has often been reduced to casual learning, imitation, or rushed performance. While enthusiasm is important, Gurmat Sangeet requires structure, patience, and proper guidance.

SSOPA exists to restore that balance, where learning is serious, spiritually grounded, and focused on long-term growth, not shortcuts.

What, Why and How

SSOPA is designed for learners who want more than attendance, they want real learning.

Our Approach to Teaching

At SSOPA, Gurmat Sangeet is taught as a discipline, not an activity. Learning is structured. Progression is clear. Practice is intentional. Students are guided step by step so they understand what they are singing, why it is sung, and how it should be presented in sangat.
  • Correct raag-based training
  • Consistent riaz and discipline
  • Clarity before complexity
  • Confidence built through readiness, not pressure
Students are never rushed. Performance is encouraged only when the foundation is ready.

Respect for Gurmat Tradition

Gurmat Sangeet is not just music. It carries meaning, maryada, and responsibility. At SSOPA, teaching is conducted with:
  • Calmness, not showmanship
  • Respect, not performance pressure
  • Spiritual grounding, not exaggeration
The aim is to help students connect deeply with Gurmat through understanding and practice, in a way that is respectful, focused, and sincere.
