Warli Art Classes for Kids in HSR Layout, Bangalore
Warli, the whole world drawn from three shapes
Warli is built from a circle, a triangle and a line, and out of those three shapes the Warli people of Maharashtra draw harvests, weddings, hunts and the tarpa dance. For a child it is the clearest possible lesson in how much you can say with very little, and it is the one folk form a five-year-old can genuinely do well.

Warli, the whole world drawn from three shapes
Because Warli looks simple, it is usually taught as a stick-figure exercise. What gets lost is that it is narrative art — every panel is a scene with people doing something together. We teach the vocabulary and then the composition, so the child ends up telling a story rather than scattering figures.
Real narrative composition, not scattered stick figures
The best folk form for younger children, from five up
Strong grounding in shape, rhythm and repetition
Traditional white-on-earth palette and the reason for it
Scales from a small panel to a wall at home
Fast visible success, which matters for reluctant children
Batch timings for HSR Layout
Live classes on IST, scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Weekday 6:00 to 8:30 PM IST suits HSR best, after the Outer Ring Road and Silk Board commute rather than in the middle of it. Saturday and Sunday morning batches also run, and they fill fastest here of anywhere in the city.
HSR is also where Nrithyakshetra, our parent Bharatanatyam academy, teaches, so a good number of HSR families know us from there first and add shloka or arts alongside dance.
What your child walks away able to do
Composing a Warli panel that reads as a scene
Fluency with the circle-triangle-line vocabulary
Understanding of rhythm and repetition in composition
A large finished piece, often painted at home on a wall

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 HSR 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 warli art classes for kids 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 6:00 to 8:30 PM IST suits HSR best, after the Outer Ring Road and Silk Board commute rather than in the middle of it.
Warli Art Classes for Kids for families in HSR Layout
HSR Layout, the Hosur–Sarjapur Road Layout, is planned in numbered sectors and is one of the youngest neighbourhoods in Bengaluru by the age of its families. Parents here ask us about confidence, about screen time, and about how to keep a child connected to their own culture when both parents work full days.
HSR is right across the city from our base off Kanakapura Road, which is precisely the point of a live online class: nobody sits at Silk Board to get their child to a lesson.
Around here: Agara Lake · HSR BDA Complex · 27th Main Road · Silk Board junction

Five, comfortably. It is the folk form we recommend first, because the vocabulary is three shapes and a young child can produce something genuinely good in the first class rather than an approximation.
