She has completed "Eight Grades" piano at Trinity College London. She has also rendered a solo Bharatanatyam performance titled "Yesu Charitam" (Life of Jesus Christ).

Besides Bharatnatyam, Carnatic music, and piano, Ester knows the guitar and is now learning violin and Hindustani vocal. She has been getting many offers to present live performances in Hindi and Kannada; but Ester says that she will always give top priority to her mother tongue Konkani.
