Indian Culture Classes for Kids in St. Louis
Indian culture, explained rather than just observed
Children take part in festivals every year without ever being told what they are doing. They light lamps at Diwali, tie a rakhi, eat during Sankranti, and nobody explains the reason because everyone assumes they absorbed it. This class is the explanation — festival by festival, custom by custom, with the story and the reasoning behind each.

Indian culture, explained rather than just observed
Our epics classes go deep into one text over a year. This one goes wide: the festival calendar, the reason behind everyday customs, regional differences, the food, the art, the why. It is the right starting point for a child, often an NRI child, who is curious about all of it and does not know where to begin.
St. Louis has a settled, middle-sized Indian community, many in medicine, academia and engineering, and the Hindu Temple of St. Louis in Ballwin as its centre. It is the kind of catchment where families have been in the same suburb for twenty years and grandparents are often local, which makes for unusually well-supported practice at home.

“Timezone was our biggest worry. Smriti Samskara made it effortless, the Mahabharata class fits perfectly into our London evenings, and the storytelling quality is simply exceptional.”
