Rangoli Classes in BTM Layout, Bangalore
Symmetry you draw on the floor, from memory
Rangoli is drawn on the floor, in loose powder, with no eraser and no undo — and it is meant to be swept away the next morning. That combination teaches something a sketchbook cannot: plan the whole thing before you commit, because the first line already decides the last.

Symmetry you draw on the floor, from memory
A drawing class trains the hand on paper, at a desk, at eye level. Rangoli is a different plane, a different scale and an unforgiving medium, and most children who draw well on paper are lost the first time they work on the ground. We start with the dot grid, because symmetry on a floor is arithmetic before it is art.
BTM Layout sits between our Kanakapura Road base and the HSR–Koramangala belt, and it is one of the densest young-family pockets in south Bengaluru. Most enquiries here come from apartments off Bannerghatta Road and the 16th Main stretch, with parents who explicitly do not want to add another evening trip.
The dot grid (chukki) taught first — the structure everything hangs on
Symmetry worked out rather than guessed, so a design closes correctly
Powder control — the pinch, the pour, and a steady continuous line
Regional styles distinguished: kolam, muggu, alpana, rangoli
Festival designs timed for Diwali, Pongal, Ugadi and Onam
Practised on paper before floor, so no material is wasted learning
Batch timings for BTM Layout
Live classes on IST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 5:30 to 8:00 PM IST, set around the local school run, plus weekend morning batches. BTM is close enough to our base that families sometimes ask to visit, and they are welcome to.
Families join from 1st and 2nd Stage, the area around Mico Layout, and the apartment blocks along Bannerghatta Road. Several found us through neighbours in Jayanagar and JP Nagar.

Rangoli Classes, module by module
What a year of rangoli classes actually covers, in the order we teach it.
The Dot Grid
Chukki and pulli. Counting, spacing, and why the grid is the whole design before a line is drawn.
Line and Loop
The kolam loop that travels around dots without lifting. Hand control at floor scale.
Symmetry
Four-fold and eight-fold. Working the repeat out so a design closes rather than nearly closes.
Powder and Colour
The pinch grip, filling evenly, blending edges, and stopping colours bleeding into each other.
Regional Traditions
Tamil kolam, Andhra muggu, Bengali alpana, Maharashtrian rangoli — what actually differs between them.
A Festival Piece
A full design planned, gridded and laid for the nearest festival, photographed for the showcase.
Prefer a room, paper and paint on a table?
Arts & Painting is the one class we teach in person as well as online. Offline batches run at our arts studio in Jayanagar, Bengaluru, with the same mentors and the same curriculum as the online batches. If BTM Layout is within a sensible drive, tell us and we will send the current offline batch timings.
Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For rangoli 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, set around the local school run, plus weekend morning batches.
“My son now begins every day with his shlokas, chanting them perfectly, and actually understanding what they mean. What moved me most is how much calmer and more focused he has become.”
Rangoli Classes in BTM Layout, Bangalore, FAQs
The mentor’s camera looks down at their floor and the child sets a phone or laptop to do the same, so both sides see the work from above. Families in BTM Layout usually give the child a corner of the floor or a large sheet of card; either works.
