Meet your Teacher
Drawing upon her unique Indo-Trinidadian roots, Rishima Bahadoorsingh shares her knowledge with those who would like to learn and experience the deep roots of spirituality in Indian traditions. Initially singing spiritual songs at a young age, in the Indian temple traditions of bhajans/kirtan, she later studied and performed formal music in both Western and Hindustani classical vocals. Since 2016, she has been learning Dhrupad (Nāda yoga - yoga of sound) an ancient meditative style of North Indian classical singing that originated from the Sama Veda. She is taught by Manish Kumar, one of the Bihar Brothers duo and part of the Dagarvani lineage. Rishima has also completed a Raga Therapy certification with NADA Centre for Music Therapy (India) and is presently working towards a Prayag Sangeet Samhiti (classical Hindustani music certification) with Ajivasan (India). She continues to be influenced by the many talented musicians and teachers surrounding her. She has sung at local cultural and charity events, yoga centers, TV interviews, festivals locally and internationally, weddings, spiritual centers, temples, and workshops. Rishima also teaches locally and internationally online in Spanish and English. Rishima is a strong believer in the positive impact of music. She is presently an elementary school teacher in Vancouver, Canada. She holds a Masters of Education in Curriculum and Development as well as a Bachelor of Education in Elementary Education and a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology. In her off time, she volunteers as a coordinator for the Canadian Institute of Sathya Sai Education in Human Values and is the founder of Sol Community Education Society, a society that supports rural education in Northern Peru.
