Online Puja Classes in London
Learn to perform the puja, not just attend one
Most households in London perform some form of daily puja, and most perform it from memory — a sequence half-learnt from a grandparent, with the mantras approximated and a few steps quietly dropped. These classes teach the procedure as it is actually laid down: each step in its place, each mantra pronounced correctly, and the reason behind both.

Learn to perform the puja, not just attend one
A video can show you the order of a puja. It cannot hear that your Saṅkalpa is garbled, or notice that you have been skipping Ācamana for a year. Classes are live and small for that reason, and every learner chants and performs alone while the teacher listens.
London is our largest catchment in the UK and the easiest timezone abroad for us to teach into — the Indian evening is the London afternoon, so a weekday class after school genuinely works here in a way it does not in California.
The daily puja performed in its correct traditional order, start to finish
Ṣoḍaśopacāra, the sixteen offerings, taught one at a time with their mantras

Batch timings for London
Live classes on GMT/BST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 4:30 to 7:00 PM UK, straight after school, plus Saturday mornings. British Summer Time shifts the offset by an hour twice a year and we adjust the batch rather than asking families to.
Harrow, Wembley, Croydon, Slough, Hounslow and Ilford are where we hear from most. Many London parents already send a child to a weekend cultural class and come to us specifically for the Sanskrit pronunciation work.
What you walk away able to do

Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us who the class is for
Call or WhatsApp us and say who is joining and where they are starting from. For online puja classes that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to their age, body and experience.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with you for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class and batch of ours.
3. Pick a slot that fits your week
We place you in a batch scheduled for GMT/BST, around work, family and daily routine rather than across them.
“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.”
