Madhubani Painting Classes for Kids in the UAE
Madhubani, taught with its rules intact
Madhubani is not a decorative style you can approximate. It has rules — the double outline, the absence of empty space, the specific motifs for fish, bamboo, sun and the kohbar marriage panel, each carrying a meaning. Taught properly it is one of the best line-discipline exercises a child can do, and it comes with several centuries of Mithila behind it.

Madhubani, taught with its rules intact
Search results are full of "Madhubani for kids" worksheets that are really colouring pages with a border. We teach the actual grammar of the form: how the fill patterns work, why the space is filled, what each motif means, and how a panel is composed. Children finish able to make a Madhubani painting, not a picture that resembles one.
Beyond Dubai, we teach families across Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman and Ras Al Khaimah. The pattern is consistent across the Emirates: parents on long working hours, children in Indian curriculum schools, and a wish for something rooted that does not depend on a weekend drive.
The real grammar of the form, motif by motif
Exceptional line control, the by-product of all that fill work
The Mithila stories and meanings behind each motif
A finished panel worth framing, not a worksheet
Batch timings for the UAE
Live classes on GST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekend batches follow the UAE’s Saturday–Sunday weekend, with Friday afternoon slots after the half-day, alongside weekday 5:00 to 7:30 PM GST batches. The one-and-a-half-hour offset from India means almost any slot works for both ends.
Abu Dhabi and Sharjah follow Dubai in numbers. Because the timezone is so convenient, UAE families are also the most likely to take two classes a week.

Arts & Painting runs in person at our arts studio in Jayanagar, Bengaluru, and, like every class of ours, at our HSR Layout centre, 243, 16th Main Road, Sector 3, HSR Layout, Bengaluru 560102. Both use the same mentors and the same curriculum as the online batches. Families outside Bengaluru take the online batches, which cover the identical curriculum.
Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For madhubani painting classes for kids that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to what they can already do.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with your child for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class of ours for them.
3. Pick a slot that survives the school week
We place your child in a batch built for GST. Weekend batches follow the UAE’s Saturday–Sunday weekend, with Friday afternoon slots after the half-day, alongside weekday 5:00 to 7:30 PM GST batches.
