Online Storytelling Classes in Basavanagudi, Bangalore
Storytelling classes that teach a child to hold a room
Storytelling is the most transferable skill we teach. A child who can shape a story, pace it, and read a listener’s face has the underlying machinery for every presentation, interview and conversation ahead of them. We teach it as craft: structure, voice, pause, gesture, and the discipline of cutting what does not earn its place.

Storytelling classes that teach a child to hold a room
Reading aloud well is not storytelling. Storytelling is what happens when the page is gone and the child has to carry the room themselves. Every class ends with children telling, not reading, and the correction is on delivery, not pronunciation.
Story structure a child can actually apply, not just admire
Voice work: modulation, pace, and the deliberate pause
Gesture and eye contact trained, not left to instinct
The Panchatantra and Jataka tales as source material
Every child tells aloud in every class, without exception
Original stories by the end, not just retellings
Batch timings for Basavanagudi
Live classes on IST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 5:30 to 8:00 PM IST, plus weekend morning batches, generally set to fit around the Carnatic and Sanskrit classes a lot of Basavanagudi children already attend.
Families come from Gandhi Bazaar, DVG Road, N R Colony, Shankarapuram, Hanumanthanagar and Thyagarajanagar. Of all our catchments this is the one where parents ask the sharpest questions about pronunciation, and we take that as the standard.
What your child walks away able to do
Telling a five-minute story from memory, holding attention
Deliberate control of voice, pace and pause
Original stories with a working structure
Comfort in front of a group that shows up in school too
Online Storytelling Classes, module by module
What a year of online storytelling classes actually covers, in the order we teach it.
What Makes a Story Work
Beginning, turn and end, and how to find the turn in a story the child already knows.
India’s Story Treasury
Panchatantra, Jataka and the epics, mined for material and studied for structure.
Voice
Modulation, pace, volume and the pause. The pause takes the longest to learn and does the most work.
Body and Presence
Where to stand, what the hands do, and how to hold eye contact with more than one person.
Making Your Own
From an idea to a told story, drafted, cut and tested on the batch.
Telling It for Real
A showcase where every child tells to an audience that is not their batch.
Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For online storytelling classes that matters — the mentor pitches the trial to what they can already do.
2. Free trial with 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 IST. Weekday 5:30 to 8:00 PM IST, plus weekend morning batches, generally set to fit around the Carnatic and Sanskrit classes a lot of Basavanagudi children already attend..
Online Storytelling Classes for families in Basavanagudi
Basavanagudi is one of the oldest parts of Bengaluru, laid out around the Bull Temple, and still the most tradition-rich neighbourhood in the city. Between Gandhi Bazaar, the music and Sanskrit schools and a full temple calendar, children here often arrive already knowing a shloka or two. What we add is structure, correct pronunciation and meaning.
Basavanagudi is a short run north of our base off Kanakapura Road, and of all of Bengaluru it is the neighbourhood our teaching tradition feels most at home in.
Around here: Dodda Basavana Gudi (Bull Temple) · Bugle Rock Park · Gandhi Bazaar · Ramakrishna Ashrama · National College metro station (Green Line)
