Online Puja Classes in Los Angeles
Learn to perform the puja, not just attend one
Most households in Los Angeles 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.
Greater Los Angeles is so spread out that an Indian family in Irvine and one in the San Fernando Valley may as well live in different cities, and the weekend drive to Artesia’s Pioneer Boulevard or the Malibu Hindu Temple is a real undertaking. Parents here come to us because the commute, not the interest, is what ends most classes.

Live classes on PT, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Saturday and Sunday mornings Pacific fill first, landing in the Indian late evening. Weekday batches run 6:00 to 7:30 PM Pacific, which is the Indian early morning. We do not offer Pacific families pre-dawn slots.
Cerritos, Artesia, Irvine, Diamond Bar and the San Fernando Valley are where the Indian community around Los Angeles is concentrated.

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 PT, around work, family and daily routine rather than across them.
“Living in California, we worried our kids would lose their roots. The online Shloka and Gita classes changed that. They chant every morning now, and understand what the words mean.”
